The biggest Toy & Statues Collector in Malaysia?


Pic of Mr Loh with Darth Vader. (c)allmalaysia.info

Engineering Consultant Loh Lean Cheng had been collecting toys and collectibles for more than 30 years.

He had amassed more than 100,000 toys, dolls, models and other collectibles.

He had set up Toy Museum that is 650sq meters big in Penang, Malaysia.

He claims it is the largest in the world and first such Museum in all of Asia.

And all I can say is :Holee Kow!

Very impressive, but someone needs to go around the place and dust.

I missed the chance to check out this toy meseum five years ago when it was located at the top floor of a local mall at my state. Now, it had moved all the way to the northern state called Penang.

They were charging people to enter, or alternatively, go in for free, but you must buy one of the toys at the counter. Not knowing what to expect inside that time, I passed.
