Happy 300th post everyone! I know what you are thinking..... 300 posts? That isn't that many, well you are correct if the posts where made by A staff of writers, or if the posts were just thrown up without much thought.
The Truth is, The Hobbyshop Hero was created, designed and is solely maintained by Dutch VonEpp Ziegler, Professionally known as Dutchmassive, Also known as "The Hobbyshop Hero". This site was created as an extension of the Music I create and is used as my bridge from Artist to Fan, Created as A Fan.
Just as each word in each verse in each song in every album and each sound in each record sampled for every beat used to create my albums is precious and personal. So is the Content I choose to post in this forum dubbed, THEHOBBYSHOPHERO.blogspot. To be completely honest, I've spent more time from 2007 till now researching content, browsing the Internet, learning new programs, building my digital portfolio than I have creating music. Some times A post takes an hour or so, but many times 18 hours go into searching, editing, resizing, color coding and tweaking these posts. I'm very proud of how far the site has come from the birth till now. When I 1st created it, I never imagined getting 20,000 hits a day which isn't that much in the world of Web Sites, but I am happy to know that you are able to enjoy the things I get so excited about!
In Celebration of this monumental number (hahaha) I decided to give everyone A peak into my private Space and took photo's of "The Bed Room" the day before I packed everything up and moved shop!, The Images of my surroundings should give you an IDEA of why I am THE HOBBYSHOP HERO!
UPDATE! 12/28/2008 FROM THE HERO AFTER THE ORIGINAL POST:
I just finished watching Episode 25 or "Trick 25" as the series refers to the shows, and it ends on A cliffhanger. After hours of Research not wanting to believe my eyes, This show has been canceled due to a lack of interest in Japan. Good news is since its international release its been picking up tremendous steam and support. I know I will purchase this series on DVD as I made me feel great and inspired watching it. Anything that brings you to such a positive level is worth investing in. It seems I have A Curse with shows I fall in love with getting Canceled, BLADE the TV Series, ANGEL ended on season 5 when there was so much more to be told, PEACEMAKER ended with a need for more. I can go on and on.... I just dont understand how this happens...
Why Isnt the Movie / Anime Buisiness like the music buisiness, Alot of us do not have support from label's in fact alot of us sacrifice everything our careers, lovers, families and friends to make sure we deliver our artform into the world. why cant this happen for the Film industry.
I wanna ask everyone reading this a huge favor. Please take just a moment to go to this link and sign the potition for AIR GEAR SEASON 2.....PLEASE and THANK YOU

MORE INFO TO FOLLOW AFTER WORDS FROM THE HERO -=)
So, I wanted to share A Anime series with you guys and gals that I absolutely love. I just started Watching AIRGEAR A few days ago on NETFLIX... It has all 25 episodes and im only at 9 so far but I am in love with it. The Main Character "Ikki" is played by the talented "Chris Patton" who does alot of voices for Anime I love. The show has an Amazing Hi-energy Electro-Dance-Stutter-Disco ....like Deelite meets ak1200 and a few jazzy joints I love. Within the Hour I downloaded Both soundtracks for the show. haha. I am not going to do my usual super post w/ a bunch of photos and links and extras because, well.... Id rather you just take my word and check it out. The only complaint I have is there is alot of unnecessary bad language and nudity, which is cool i guess, but It a little excessive and doesn't seem to be needed hahaa. Other than that tho. I highly recommend it. My next Anime Review / promoting will be on the Series The PeaceMaker, which is A 10 out of 10 Anime. Until then. Peace World. now back to the Info.
Itsuki "Ikki" Minami, is a student and a delinquent. Also known as the "Unbeatable Babyface", Ikki is the leader of the youth gang by the name of "East Side Gunz" (Hikatsuganzu). Upon his return home, after being humiliated by a Storm Rider team called the Skull Saders, Ikki discovers a secret hidden from him by his benefactors, the Noyamano sisters. The sisters belong to a group of Storm Riders who go by the team name of Sleeping Forest. In the anime, learning the sisters' secret angers him and he steals a pair of Air Trecks, abbreviated as "AT". (In the manga, the sisters give a pair of ATs to him and invite him to skate with them.) Ikki eventually settles his grudge with the Skull Saders, but in the process he receives more than the simple satisfaction of revenge. Determined to experience the sensation of "flight" for as long as he can, Ikki is quickly engaged in the mysterious, irresistible world of Air Treks.
