I have seen a few of these in the "show your collection" section, where are they from? Are they rare?
There are at least 3 different Eiji Tsuburaya vinyl figures. 2 released by Yamanya (1 mini w/ Tsuburaya wearing a hat & sunglasses, the other ~ 8"-9" in a suit). The other is the excellent M1 figure. All can be seen at Club Tokyo: Yamanaya mini Eiji Tsuburaya Yamanaya full size Eiji Tsuburaya M1 Eiji Tsuburaya All of these have been out of production for several years and will probably take a little hunting to track down, but with a little patience you'll be able to find them.
tehse were on display at the Shiodome clusterfudge thingy last month.. Cool - wish they were MaruBuru regular size though. That would ROCK! sorry for the shaky pic...
maruburu --> marusan/bullmark classic regular/standard sized kaiju. the eiju fig is a little smaller than that...
