TW: what is your Favorites toys collection
Yam: I really don’t have specific favorites toys I will buy toys, which I like most

TW: the story being of your toys collection
Yam: I collect toy to release my stress I feel very relieve when I look at my collection , maybe you will said I’m weird but I ok with that I really don’t mind this what my mother and my wife said it to me ha..ha…See different people have different way to release their stress like smoking, take drug , disco , and so on , this is not the healthy way and waste lots of money , why choose a method that will kill yourself .

TW: Do you think toys are valuable in future? If yes, why?
Yam: There are certain toys that valuable for example hot toys, S.I.C, S.H.F, and Transformer Master Piece and so on. Reason is there is no reissue for that figures and with the higher demand the price for that figures will increase as well

TW: Since when you start to collecting your toys?
Yam: I guess when I break off with my first girlfriend (puppy love not count) cannot tell you the date because I don’t want people to know my ages ha...ha..., So I went window shopping by myself with that broken heart, all of sudden I went into a toys shop and when I saw the 12” S.W.A.T display in the cabinet I was very attractive to it this is how I bought my first eve toys which is 12” S.W.A.T from BBI

TW: What is the first toys that you collecting?
Yam: 12” S.W.A.T from BBI. After that I keep buying 12” toys . I stop for a while because the price for 12” is keeping increasing. Therefore I have change my direction to Kamen rider, my first Kamen rider was Ryuki

TW: What do you think about the toys price nowadays, expensive, reasonable , cheap? Why?

Yam: I felt that the toys price is getting more and more expensive compare to others country (I’m not talk about country to country currency exchange). Maybe is cause by ours Local toys shop they want to make more profit and try to jack up the price. Take a good example for SIC Kabuto and SHF Kabuto jake up the price from RM 180 to RM 260 (SIC Kabuto and from RM 90 to RM 120 (SHF Kabuto), this really unhealthy for the consumer.

TW: will u continue collecting toy when you have kid or married

Yam: Yes will and my collection will pass to my children to carry on

TW: how much money you spend on toys?

Yam: Around RM 400 a month and if I want to buy toys that more than RM 500 I need to discuss with my wife

p/s from Yam: Here I would like to thanks to bro Kenqi (nick name in LYN) to give me this opportunity to have this interview and I hope more and more people will join ours hobby.
