bag for something by funkbuilders and my obsession with bags

game for fashion some bags? CLICKETH

these are 1:6-scaled bags handmade by Alan of Funkbuilders! CLICK for more pics :)

and as much as im am insane obsessed about 1/6th-scaled shoes myself (*cough* - and furniture, and motorbikes - on&on :p), so too have i a particular preference for 1/6th-scale BAGS. more decidedly casual or streetwear, rather than the deluge of military-themed products and suitcases (with machine guns in them LOL) readily available in the market (altho some may be able to pass for "civilian gear" as well).

in fact, there were memorable moments in my (past) collecting live where i actively tracked down1/6-bags, from online auctions, to Barbie/Sindy/Bratz-dolls (very subjective quality), to loose Blythe bags (and there are loadsa swell ones too but darned expensive), to Japanese gashapons, to even key-chain memorabilia (some make great sports bags, yo!) and of the generosity of fellow 1/6-collectors (which was only YOU, Andrea! nobody else has ever sent me stuff :p) - as long as the size & scale were plausible? and the zippers weren't too spectacularly huge? (ie: biggest visual hurdle) = then tis *gravy* :)

and what may be deemed incredulous is, i do not spend as much on a 1:1-scaled real-world bag, than i do my toys' ... heh ... and perhaps one day i may do a more indepth and image-heavier-post about 1/6-bags ... but until then?


but then again, sling bags are much easier to find, compared to luggage. heh.
