Revenge of the Retro Japanese Toy Adverts

Best stuff I've read all week!

 

I've been seeing some of these toys pop up lately at prices that would require corporate sponsorship. How nice to get good photos from classic print materials for free! Thanks

 

Doraemons and Santas too! Amazing spreads!

 

BTW, its the end of the glory days for this thread. Most auction sites take down the hi-res versions of images immediately after the auction ends now. All that's left behind is a low-res preview image. This makes it very frustrating because every time you think you've found some good stuff, its just the ghost images left behind. I will still post stuff i find, but its very restricted now.

 

Great stuff again as always, especially enthralling was the T-28 stuffs. Will be sad to see this diminish; it's one of the things that I look forward to on the site.

 

Love how the kid is dressed up for product! Yokai are so cool.

 

I like the doodled curly hair on the first panel and the tank body with an atomic powered gardening pole saw below it. Love all the rest as well, but my lilacs need major surgery, so I am thinking along those lines...

 

Somewhere there is a spoiled Japanese kid who got ALL this stuff.He's 67 now and living in his parents' old apartment. He has not been outside or talked to another human being in over 40 years. His skin has turned a fungal bluish white and his nails are longer than Howard Hughes' were.
I envy him.

 

I need to get serious about fining that sassy Bemular mini

Thanks @The Moog as always for posting these

Great stuff as always, and with the fuglies as counterpart, prolly two of the highest points of the skullbrain ehsperienszh. Sorry, been reading a "Mutts" collection.

 

Yeah, I enjoy Popeye and Krazy Kat for the same reason ...

 

I love that Kitaro ad with the kid in it a few posts up. Brilliant.
