I took pix of some of the Astro Boy related items I have and thought I'd share them with others who might be able to appreciate them. I hope you like them:

That's not all the Astro Boy things I have, and I have items related to the other robots in the pins shot, but I was tired of taking pictures. ;)

Wow! That's very cool. All my collection include is the mangas, a few DVDs and two mini figurines of Atomu dressed in Chinese clothing. (I'm Taiwanese. I speak Chinese / Mandarin. :) )

Hope we can become good friends btw! ;)

Thanks. It probably looks like more because I had several pictures of the watch. I had other G-Shocks and got a good deal on that one in an auction on ebay. That's what started me collecting Astro Boy stuff. I got a T-shirt with him showing the arm cannon to wear when I wore the watch and went from there.

That's really cool. I really like that gray color variant of sleeping Atom.

My own collection of Astro Boy stuff is pretty limited to DVDs and a cell phone charm along with one doujinshi. But in the future mine might increase. :)

You're lucky to have a doujinshi! I only have my own hand-drawn mangas. You can't find many Tezuka doujinshis here in Taiwan. Too bad. :)

I bought mine on Ebay :)

The scans are available in the Astro Boy discussion page under the thread Tora!Tora!Tora!
