Toypunks has released the trailer to their first installment of their documentary examining the unique relationship between Japanese punk rock, streetwear and toys. The teaser previews some snippets of interviews with Hikaru Imanaga (creator of Bounty Hunter) as well as other supporting cast such as Hiddy from Secret Base, Frank Kozik and Balzac. The video offers an interesting look into what makes Hikaru tick and the spillover effect of Bounty Hunter’s popularity from toys to apparel. Volume 1 will be be available starting November 15th, 2007 at Toy Punks’ website.
The previews of the adidas Consortium series continue with this latest Forum Hi. The panels feature writing which lists off different colors incongruent with the actual panel color. For example the gray panel has the word orange, while the blue toebox has the word green. There is currently no release information.

The in-store brand of Japanese sneaker boutique Atmos has just released some new items. Available are the Reversible T-shirt and a nylon coin purse. The highlight of this t-shirt is it’s ability to be reversed to perhaps match your sneaks for the day. The colors available for the tees include white/aqua and black/purple. The print on the shirt reads Atmoticpeace… something that probably doesn’t make much sense outside of Japan. The other item released is a carabiner coin purse, perfect for allowing quick access to your change. The change purse can be bought in black, blue, pink and grey. The shirts retail for ï¿¥8,190 (approximately $69 USD) while the coin purses retail for ï¿¥1,890 (approximately $16 USD).
