For those of you looking to pimp out you computer gear than look no further than Metalware’s line of anime and comic book theme computer accessories. The computer maker has a number of digital gadgets whether you are an Otaku, Geek or Fanboy.

Before it was hard to find Metalware’s complete line of gear all in one place but now they’ve opened up their own store in downtown Tsim Sha Tsui, so if you’re looking for an Astro Boy themed keyboard, Wolverine headphones or Batman flash drive you can now get them all in one place.

On hand to open Metalware’s flagship store was none other than local uber celebrity model Chrissie Chau. To celebrate the launch Metalware put on an amazing catwalk show where Chrissie supported by a number of cute models showed off to a crowd of tech reporters and local entertainment tabloid scumbag pseudo-reporters (if you haven’t guessed we hate those douche bags) all the cool stuff that they had to offer.

To help mark the occasion Chrissie even designed a graphic theme for one of Metalware’s notebooks (autographed as well), which can be seen on display at the store along with a number of other anime and comic book memorabilia. Aside from the shopping of cool gear Neonpunch readers can also see life sized models of Iron Man and Kamen Rider next to display cases that house original drafts for classic silver age comics, near mint old collectable comics and a replica of Captain America’s Adamantium Shield.

The Metalware’s Flagship store is located at Gi Shopping Centre, 34-36 Granville Road, Tsim Sha Tsui.

Briefcases usually denote you’re there to do business. They’re meant to carry your papers and, most of the time, are geared to blend in. Not this bad boy.

If just giving out the Iron Man 2 Blu-ray isn’t a big enough gift for the Shellhead in your life, then perhaps this Iron Man 2 Tony Stark Mark V Briefcase Replica is showing you how to get things done.

It has a resemblance to the movie version that ought to get testosterone-filled colleagues in the boardroom sit up and take notice. Inside, it will come with a genuine leather interior and a custom molded lazer cut EVA foam (which reads “STARK”), where the exterior features a movie accurate machined look, boasting brushed aluminum and durable red automotive paint alongside a couple of buckles that function as locks for additional privacy.

It won’t come cheap though at HK$3,500/US$460 a pop, leaving only 1,000 units worldwide for purchase.

Thunder! Thunder! Thundercats – Hooooooooo!

You remember that iconic battle cry from the 80′s cartoon series The Thundercats? Well along with everything else from the 80′s its back and in a new line of collectible statues starting with their leader: Lion-O.

Icon Heroes recently got the license from Warner Bros who owns the property and in time for the Comic-Con International in the US, they are releasing a limited edition Lion-O statue and we have the very first images of it before it makes its debut for purchase on July 22.

The statue is made of polyresin, so its not poseable but it comes ready to display right out of the box. It has 2 metal pins in its feet to attach to the base. Standing 6″ tall, Lion-O is ready to call the rest of the team into battle against Mumm-Ra and his mutant horde.

The Lion-O statue is limited to only 500 pieces and these can only be purchased at the comic convention in San Diego but we were able to get this early version and snap some photos.

If you want to order one you can try at their website or see more of them at Iconheroes.com.

And just in case you read this whole post and still can’t place the Thundercats this video is for you:

and what could be…one day!

Looking for something to tidy your Star Wars books and DVDs? These Star Wars Jabba’s Palace bookends capture Princess Leia’s valiant attempt to save a suspended Han Solo in carbonite in Jabba the Hutt’s trophy room, with the feared Bounty Hunter Boba Fett and a ruthless Gammorean Guard standing on the left.

It measures a substantial 14-inches wide, 9-inches tall and 6.5-inches deep. This US$250/HK$1950 limited edition poly-stone collectible comes hand-numbered with a matching certificate of authenticity.

Oddly enough, Jabba himself is missing. Maybe they are making him into a TV bench instead?

May the Force be with you and your books.

Pre-order them from any of these retailers in the US.

Put our favorite “leng mo” in the same shot with our favorite superhero and you have the ultimate Neonpunch Nerdgasm!

Tony Stark gets his Hong Kong make-over.

It’s almost here! Iron Man 2 – the sequel to one of the greatest superhero movies ever made, and as we prepare to go into Iron Man overdrive here at Neonpunch.com – it seems so is Hong Kong as well. Collectibles company Hot Toys is taking a whole new approach at mixing art and collectibles with what looks to be an amazing collection of artistic interpretations of the Armored Avenger himself.

Beloved by millions of fans all over the world, this iconic superhero is expected to bring us an “Iron Man wave” in the weeks to go! To catch this exciting moment, Hot Toys is very proud to present the first-of-its-kind Iron Man CollARTible Expo at Miramar Shopping Centre in Hong Kong from April 22 – May 9, in line with the movie launch.

At the exhibition, the first-of-its-kind life-size War Machine statue will be proudly unveiled!

Sounds like the perfect opportunity to get your new camera out and start snapping and share those photos with us on the Neonpunch Facebook page!

Be the biggest hero this Christmas by giving someone a pre-order coupon for this amazing collectible from the anime classic, Akira. Medicom has a 1/6 scale Kaneda figure which now has an amazing light-up bike. Following Toysrevil’s great translations skills:

• Articulated Front and Back Wheel (turnable)
• Die-cast internal frame with front suspension plated.
• Removable front chasis
• Model includes audio-sound, via the accelerator (travelling sound), the brake (moving sound). External speaker connectability.
• Built-in LED lights.

This stuff ships in March 2010, but you can pre-order it now from Blister Japan so you have a receipt to give for Christmas. Yes, you’ll hate this, but each piece is sold separately: the bike is 39,900円 (HK$3,500) and the Kaneda Shotaro figure is 14,900円 (HK$1,300), so the total is around HK$5,000 plus shipping, unless you drop by the collectibles shops in Mong Kok and get in line.

Akira is also on Blu-ray now if you want something under the tree for December 25th:

The big movie coming to Hong Kong this Christmas is James Cameron’s Avatar. A sci-fi epic about a human soldier (Sam Worthington from Terminator: Salvation) infiltrating the alien race called the Na’vi, it’s about their battle for survival (trailer below) and is one amazing show. One of the cooler set pieces is this Amp Suit, what looks to be an upscaled version of the Aliens Power Loader where the human characters get in and ride this around fighting blue aliens – the ultimate sci-fi!

Mattel Toys is releasing an Amp Suit toy in time for Christmas and what sets it apart from other robot toys is that it has the iTag system built in, which means it works with your computer to bring real-life 3D images to your computer screen. If you haven’t seen this in action before, it’s kind of hard to explain so have a watch and get ready to head down to Toys R Us afterwards with about HK$200 to avail of your own:

You saw this Total Immersion technology this Summer on movies like Star Trek and Transformers, but this is taking it to the next level with actual toys. Makes sense really since we usually have tons of robots and superheroes decorating our computers to begin with! Learn more at the official site AvatarItag.com – remember you also need a webcam to make it work!

If this version of the Amp Suit is too “kiddie” for you, Sideshow Toys has a limited edition HK$9,350 (US$1,199) version that looks amazing, but the downside is that it doesn’t move and it doesn’t interact with your computer.

And, if you haven’t had the pleasure of seeing it yet and are wondering what all the fuss is about, below is the newest trailer for Avatar which looks better than the first one ,but gives us a better feel that you have to see this in IMAX:

Here is a 6 minute video review and a real hands-on experience of the Mattel Amp Suit with iTag from CollectionDX:

And one more video of the Avatar iTag technology in action by a Mattel professional:
