What Toys Are Up To: Adventures with cameras!
If you've paid attention to my posts here and read between the lines, you may know that besides my love of toys, I also have an obsessive love of cameras. I can't stop collecting them, I find myself developing an addiction to buying vintage ones and hunting down film for them, and I'm a sucker for any sort of camera related memorabilia. Imagine my delight, then, when I found these shots of custom cameras made for toys! There's a few more shots of these remarkable miniatures in the gallery, along with Nedoroid fun with Legos, a threeA meets Hatsune Miku custom (yay for that Good Smile/threeA alliance!), some Obama doll madness, and a bit more from last week's frolic in the cherry blossoms. A lovely week, all in all. Got photos for us? Send them my way at colette@tomopop.com. We'd love to feature your toy photography in this feature! Did you know?
