    Great coverage over at Kaiju Korner too. Tonss of great pics and commentary. It sure is tough looking at all those Ilanena toys that aren't for sale though...

    Ah, Andy's coverage are always the best. Worrying, because I always ended up buying something that I didn't know I needed.

    Nice. Love that new Giant Silver/Black vinyl Kanegon by US Toys (as well as the glow garamon 6 incher). So if I read it correctly the new Yamanaya Yamaton is GID? Wow now I'm really looking forward to that pre order.

    That show looked sick!
    The yamaton was killer.
    I liked the Cord Viper figures too.
    And of course the RxH!

    I think these RxH Tanuki came out great with the rub treatment. Hope I can nab one from Lulubell or similar.

    Those caught my eyes as well. Looked like a good one overall, lots of stuff had me drooling.

    I really hope some of those Grody Monsters go up on Lulu. LOVE the inside paint-pour job.
    And those Skull Gorillas are great!

    I wished someone in NA still carried Kaijuken (from kadomiumtank blog) New Yamashiro & I'd still like a Red Baron by them (the gun metal colored one is by KK):

    The US Toys look nice.

    Chris, I have the metallic Red Baron and was shocked that it has a red vinyl base, entirely painted, but I guess that makes sense. With my lighting, mine almost looks golden. Was never sold in the US as far as I know.

    KK also offered one with a mirror metallic paint but too $$ for me, and I had concerns it might crack like the metallic fight figures.

    That Mach Baron is just a prototype or sample, yes? Hasn't hit production? The paint looks kinda beat-up vintage which I don't understand.

    edit: just noticed a third Red Baron in gold behind the other one

    Hmm were there ever red based vinyl Red Baron's for sale without the metallic gun metal paint? I think so (but never saw them on YJA or for sale anywhere). I have seen pics:

    One of two scenarios I'm guessing: either the initial run of red vinyl was so large it was used for subsequent editions, or there were so many leftover he painted over some of them for these?

    EDIT: I noticed your edit and the gold version looks devine!

    Correct. It's just a sample at the show. Per Abe-san it is expected for sale in February (Probably for Wonder Fest).

    Also a better picture of the gold MB.

    Thanks for all of the great coverage. So many wonderful things!
    Is it just me or does devilman and astroboy seem to be coming off as, well, a wee bit on the fem side?
