Michael Lau Tom Kids: Immume
Immume stands at 13" tall on a extended DML Neo body. All the Tom Kids figures came with two pair of shoes. And each character spots a real made of sneaker, Killjoy wears a pair of Gravis Merc. Made in 2000 by Dragon Models Ltd. Only 1000 Tomm were made. I have 0545 0f 1000.
Riding on Michael Lau's popularity, the Tom Kids set was created to promote a Hong Kong based internet company. The six limited edition figures helped to launch Tom.com when it's stock went public.
The Tom.com logo is an asterisk * & Michael put the symbol on each of the figures. The asterisk is shaved on the back of Immune's afro, boldly printed on the t-shirt of Tomm & tattooed on the left eye of Ocellus.
Each character also came with an asterisk print shirt, laptop, pet dog, extra pair of sneakers and sticker.
From left to right: D moon, Ocellus, Killjoy, Madcap, Immune & Tomm.

Michael Lau 6" Gardeners: Brain
In the early 2000's, the second generation of Michael Lau's 6" Gardeners premiered in his third exhibition – crazysmiles @ PARCO, Japan. The 6" Gardeners were sold exclusively at the exhibition as it moved through five major cities: Tokyo, Nagoya, Fukuoka, Hiroshima and Osaka. I was lucky enough to catch his show in Fukuoka.
6" Brian made his debut during the Japan exhibitions. Brian came with a beret that fitted him nicely. His earrings, chain wallets and bracelets are all made with real metal.
The Japan exhibition also introduced the monotone & grayscale figures. These special editions of Brian were supposed to be more limited then the original colour schemes.
The grayscale Brian has "PARCO" tattooed across his belly (vs "BRIAN" in the original colour & monotone version).
