The Parababy Dustman is one of my all time favorite figures. I know of two versions - painted green and painted yellow. Does anybody know of others?
this is all that i have in the way of spectreman parababies notice the brown gokinosaurus - your blue variant is sweet! i guess i need a magurah, satan-king, salamandar, mitsuzu (three headed dragon), moonthunder, beragon... those, beside the above photos, are the only other vinyls i have seen. sigh.
mine is gold, silver and green! sorry for the shadows. i can't get the light quite right in this room.
The blue Gokinosaurus is actually an unpainted test shot. There was literally a treasure trove of Parababies on YJA a few months ago, both production versions and test shots. Very interesting- you have the other color version Silver Robo and Zariganindo. I wasn't sure if there was another version of Zariganindo.
Just a quick mention that I'm new to this group and I found it by doing a search for Spectreman Parababies. I want to mention that I'm going to be putting the 4 Spectreman parababies I own on ebay soon. I have the red Mitsuzu (three headed dragon) along with the other figure that came with him. He's made of green vinyl with subtle purple metallic spray on his back and lime green spray on his front (looks kinda ridiculous - has a lot of soft, spherical bumps on his back and has small trapezoidal ears). I've taken photos of these and I have the card as well as both bags. The other two Spectreman Parababies I have (and sadly I don't know their names) also came in a pair and I'm still looking for the cards and bags for those two. One is light blue vinyl with light metallic blue spray all over. He's got three uniform bowed spikes coming off the top of his head and he looks Kinda like a dinosaur. Very smooth. The other figure that came with hime is brown in color and covered with a bumpy pattern that alternates kinda like bricks in a wall. He's brown with metallic blue spray and he has a red painted face. Looks like the kaiju from the American Spectreman TV show intro with the red illuminated face and the small tusk teeth in the lower jaw. Any, if you guys tell me how to post an image I can or I can email them to you. All the figures are in MINT condition. Thanks UHFMonstrosity
Re: You, sir, are a gentleman of taste and refinement. I've had some luck recently grabbing some vintage Nitto Gamera minis at supprisingly good prices. Some of the real cheap ones have paint rubs, names on the feet, dirt, etc., but that's all a plus for me.
Oh I love that Nitto mini Gamera! That's one on my hunt list along with the larger size Gappas by Nitto. Fairly recently I scored two Gappa minis in really nice shape, one Nitto the other Bullmark.
The Nitto mini on the left is Gappa but the Bullmark is the more common version of Hidora from Ultraman.
Hi, I'm new to the forum, and I live near San Francisco. I've had the luxury of visiting the Super 7 store, and find the vintage JP vinyl toys so addicting! I've fallen in love with Kanegon. I purchased the clear green version from Super 7, but I would love to find the cocoon version. Does anyone know if these are available or if someone is selling one? Thanks in advance!
What's the name of the purple 'mushroom-head' parababy ? I'm getting the impression it inspired the alien carousel done by Enriquez ?
good to see you on board augie . picked up super robot red baron dvd and i see your name all over that . i can only pray that there will be a subtittled tiger 7 someday .
Unico. I have never seen a sofubi, just smaller capsule and eraser sort of stuff, but I am always on the lookout.
Re: This is the first time I have seen the PB Dustman. Truly a great figure. I will have to add him to the want list (along with every other Dustman version ) I don't usually like the line all that much, but seeing these Spectreman figures totally changes my mind.
Re: I've seen something like this but it wasn't vintage although I've seen a vintage gatchaman kids belt w/out the symbol that just had the characters on it with some gimmicky suction caps and a holster for a dart gun.
Still trying to fill in vint. mini bullmarks. Also looking to finish mini robo series. All vintage minis seem good to me, but some definitely seem better.
Been wanting these in my collection for years. Unfortunately I keep missing them when the pop up, and dont have enough info to actually hunt them down.
