Thanks for the clarification, is this a M1? I couldnt make it out from the google translate

 

The maker is Nakayoshi.

As you can tell from their website, it's been a while since anything new has been released.

 

Not flippin...it is really rare and limited in numbers. This pink vinyl, Hawaiian Nakayoshi Red Jack
is stunning! Mine cost me quite a bit...not as much as the YJA one but not cheap.
Here are better pics of mine on Omni Monster

That thing is a beauty.

 

That's a pretty interesting toy. It says it was made during the WWII era.

Looking through, I came by this lovely Gatchaman based piece:

This ended todat at 1,016,000 Yen!!! Two people bid over 1,000,000 Yen. It is an Ultraman Taro on one side with a ZAT member on the other. The seller said it was a Bullmark. Anyone have any more info on this?

 

Re: strange or rare yahoo auctions post here

Whats a million yen like 100,000 USD? Thats nuts. Nostalgia is an expensive business...

 

Re: strange or rare yahoo auctions post here

Nostalgia is definitely expensive lol
1mil yen is $10k

It's a lot for a toy, but then again considering the average golf club membership in Jpn is minimum ~$10-15k(with yearly fees) and a discounted members price for a round is ~$100...
Gas prices btw are closer to $6 a gallon.

There are some serious collectors in Japan with DEEP pockets.

 

Re: strange or rare yahoo auctions post here

that is beyond crazy! i would probably have to trade my house for that damn thing, except the toy is in probably better condition...

Where do you think all the mortgage broker fees that fed the mortgage crisis in the U.S. went to

Seriously, a very cool vintage toy store owner in NYC put it all in perspective: When it comes to vintage stuff that goes for insane amounts, 9 times out of 10 it's some investment banker or someone involved in the stock market.

 

Re: strange or rare yahoo auctions post here

this one is pricey, not sure it is all that rare, but i have never seen all these tigermask minis together like this

and in great shape!

Re: strange or rare yahoo auctions post here

while there may be one or two that are harder to get than others, these are fairly easy to find. it works out to approx. $40.00 each which is not a great price although you do get the convenience of getting them all at once.

I happen to love these mini tiger mask figures and have several of the ones pictured.

 

Re: strange or rare yahoo auctions post here

Re: strange or rare yahoo auctions post here

Wow...I had no idea the "Monster Parade" figures were based off of older toys.

 

Re: strange or rare yahoo auctions post here

Yup. And for $1200 this one could have been yours.

Unpainted black test shot of the Marmit Balzas. Went for more than I thought it would (but not as much as the RxH).

 

Re: strange or rare yahoo auctions post here

What was the final price on that?
