    Just a heads up, Instagram links no longer post the photo. You will have to post your photo to a site like Imgur or Flickr and use the link with the image post tool here. Congrats on the Majin! Great release.

    Thank you for reminding! I indeed have difficulties in posting pictures, last time I registered for the Flickr, and it failed for unknown reason. I will give it a try again, thanks.

    It's a bender!

    Been ages since I've gotten 'fresh' decades-old BearPaper...

    ... and would you believe that I've been after that scrappy little snail for at least 15 years?

    It's arguably that I've been after those Woodring newts for exactly 20 years, ha, so I'll take my time opening them up.

    Congrats on the new toys David! The yellow Woodring chap is like nothing else, and another reminder that I seriously need to look at his work.

    New guy from Shameless Toy landed today, well-executed and very cute. I think I'm going to find a flat cap for him. More photos and comparison with Ilu Ilu's Gorz in the new thread.

    @toothaction you got a great deal on those newts! I had to check mandarake to see if they had any that I needed. I think I'm missing two, maybe three? I just never remember which ones I'm missing when I ever see them in the wild.

    Don't I know it! 1,300¥ for six of those little buggers (albeit with some serious shipping cost to go along with them, of course) vs the eighty bucks jokers on the 'Bay are trying to get for one of them? I couldn't believe my luck! The EMS rate got me to poke around the store to try to find some other appealing littles, and I couldn't be happier about the travel mates I ended up adopting so that I could spend more money to save money, ha!

    Best of luck on the hunt for your missing plastic lizards. I'm not expecting that I'll ever dumb into such a deal for the second wave of them.

    EDIT/PS:


    Rehydrated another one tonight.

    Not buying much these days, but any Secret Base I don't already have shows up, and that Paypal window opens up before the pic has finished loading!

    Thanks to @patrickvaz for splitting this guy from a 'set' sale and shipping over to the UK!

    so you’re the reason I’m not seeing any SB in the BsT…. lol.

    on a related note, does that particular guy have a black cord for the mask, and if so: has is stained the vinyl it touches? I’ve got the non-balzac version and it has a nasty black stain on the head from the black (dyed?) elastic cord.

    Never noticed before, but my non Balzac version has the same black cord and staining as yours too.

    This horned version has a clear 'fishing line' type cord (like most of the DBM's) and no marking.

    Hiddy schoolboy error.

    Mine also has the black staining from the cord. Been meaning to swap it out for years. I always thought I got 1 that someone somewhere repaired. Especially since this Balzac version had the perfect clear line. Were either of you guys able to get the black goo off the clear orange vinyl?

    I just tried wiping some acetone over the stain on the vinyl and it does not come off. The stain from the elastic cord is definitely in the vinyl and not just one it.

    Some board members recommended me Remove-Zit for staining a while ago. It works but can discolour the vinyl noticeably if left on too long, and my particular stains didn't come out until the plastic also lost colour. Maybe best to leave it but there's a last resort, in case anyone wants it.

    I have a couple random vintage vinyl toys that had the masks attached with rubber bands. The rubber literally fused deep into the vinyl forever. So a stain isn't the worst that could happen!

    Very happy, excited and appreciative to have opened up the box to find one of Ken’s Tibeo tenugui packed with my G.Cue. Almost don’t want to open it, but I know I will.

    Slowly been getting back into M1/new bullmark. I had to buy back a giant garamon. I feel like everyone needs one of these.
