OK. I'm pitching a tent. Going to be dropping my mediocre (at best) photo capabilities on you guys in this thread. I invite others to share. I give you Popy mini sofubi:

its been a little while since your last post erik, but its nice to see you bringing the heat. great pics !
nice lil piece... try to post a pic of the bottom of the feet. often that's where logos live on vinyl.
The toy company that produced this pieces name is Victora ビクトラー It's a subsidiary of Popy, in the same way that Popy is a subsidary of Bandai. The little green logo with the white letters is much less conspicuous than the Big P logo. Truth be told, it isn't really a Popy... but it is! You can read a very headdy article here by Matt Alt at ToyBox DX's data files that covers the basis of the Victora and Popy relationship and some of the toys offered (mostly diecast). I highly recommend the data files to solve some of the many mysteries of the Japanese toy "who-dunnits?" And congrats again on the Awesome little hunk of mini vinyl! Daidenjin rules!
thanks for that correction diceone! here are some others i found lurking in my shelves .. yummy glitter t-28 sun vulcan sentai turbo robot
Yeah, this thread's definitely magical! Someday, I'd love to document ALL my mini robot vinyls...not that I have a ridiculous number, but I'd just love to take nice pictures of 'em all lined up!
Amazing condition. Thanks for all your pics Scobot. Would love to see more of your collection Sanjeev.
Really glad to see this thread revived. I only wish I had more of these gems to contribute myself. I wasted too much time hunting monsters, and the few robots in my collection are mighty lonely. Brilliant toys all around on display here. The Diana A is a superb find indeed! I also like the Spiderman one just for it's absolutely bizarre nature; so hard to find toys from that show.
