Another interesting little group @rattanicus - you have been finding some cool Japanese toys recently!
Amen @The Moog ! There's no other feeling like finding them in a dingy case in a random place, as well!
Shoot, loads more goodies! Great new set, Rei; you've certainly been making out like a bandit at these boutiques for antiquarian artefacts. I feel a little rush of the 'find' just seeing the pics each time. And very nice bargain on that Ghost Rider. Ha, Bucky O'Hare. That brings me back (a little). While the line didn't grab much of my attention - other than filling up precious space on toy hangers - I think I have a new-found appreciation for it. But Bucky alone earns a very strong nod, if only for being a reminder of his very notable [to me] cousin Jaxxon.
No idea what these are, but i bought a bag of parts in a charity shop for £1. I used a green forearm for silver and used a green thigh for a temporary arm on blue. Does anyone know what toy-line this is? They are very well made and designed. All the parts are ball-jointed and fit together perfectly . . . .
Frog / Bear parts for a Deluxe Ninja Megazord Basically, the legs and torso. Cool toys, 50p at a boot sale.
they are from a line called M.A.R.S heroes made by Hap-e-kid,I don't have any but they have some pretty cool designs.
Very nice. Cool find mate! Do you think they are from a set? They certainly look similar enough . . .
I've no idea! I only recognize the Mach Baron and Reideen. The two ships have been there my last two visits, so grabbed them this time.
Coates comes up from Somerset, where the cider apples grow . . . Vintage metal drinks tray. Most probably 1960's or early 70's. Boot-sale for £1.50
'Tales of the Black Horse' promo figure by Lloyds Bank UK Quentin the Troll. 2004. 3" high. 20p at a boot-sale.
This hardly ever happens . . . . Godzilla at a boot-sale, but there he was for 50p. The paint is a bit beat-up, but for that price i'm not complaining! SpaceGodzilla / Bandai 2004 9" high.
I'll say Moog, the price is sure right, there isn't much I could say no to for 50p in terms of toys. Have you seen the Marmit version before? I've always had a fancy for the GID version, he is a pretty hefty and extravagant beastie. スペースゴジラ pics borrowed from the Marmit blog,2008
Wow! I have not seen that version before. He is gorgeous. Yet another toy i instantly want to own the second i first see it . . . .
Charity shop buys. They look more like Rider than Ranger to me . . . no idea what their names are. Possible bootlegs.
Cute little guy. Gobots 'Hornet'. He's about 3.5" high, missing the fins on his feet and a back fin. 1985. Still nice for 20p.
nice find , Gobots are wicked.Some very off the wall designs , preferred them to Transformers back in the day.
Nice find Moog, I definitely have strong love for Machine Robo/Gobots (and especially their Rocklord cousins). Guess I always was an underdog supporter, but I do love their mecha designs and the 'fun' of the whole line. Highly underrated, if not downright abused, but a lot of toy collectors/the TF crowd.
Cheap and cheerful Robotech 'Gladiator' Destroid 1985. 7" high by Matchbox. Missing an antenna and the tip of the remaining one. 50p at a boot sale.
Argh, you (and Rei) always manage to find some killer toys there, Moog. I am very jealous, I had no idea Matchbox even did a line of Robotech/Macross toys. 7" high too, that is incredible! The damage is so minor, I wouldn't even give it a second thought. Lovely to see some great mecha toys on here - even if they are not from the traditional monster or vinyl realm - and that is one nice one.
McDonalds 'Lavagirl' from a boot-sale - £1 (has to be one of the best happy meal figures ever) Burger King 'Creature from the Black Lagoon' from a junk shop - £1 (love the clear green)
