posted these pics a while back under show your collection . lots of new people here so i thought i might throw them up again . after looking at missys thread of " whole collection pics " im almost embarresed at how i have them displayed . everything is back in totes now so next time i set up i will have to step it up .
WOW, i dont know much about vintage stuff but all those are insane man, awesome collection...makes me want to start picking up vintage stuff!!
I may have asked this before, but I've forgotten. Bottom photo. Who is the Fly guy next to the Bee Girl? And what is the figure to the left of the seemingly happy mouse-like figure in the second row? Finally, who are the two-headed twins the bottom middle of the third photo? Your setup looks great. How else would you organize it??
Love Jim's collection ! Always love to see the new (and old) photos. You never know what you might see tucked away in there. Jim's collection is pure of heart, if you know what I mean. One of the best
thanks akumizer . this pic is for you as i know you are a big mask collector . ok , its not vintage but its one of the few new things that i have bought that really moved me . its from the show " garo " . one of these days akumizer i would really love to see your stuff posted on here . would also like to see more of brians stuff . the tease shots were nice but it just made me want to see the rest of the stuff more . lets see , the fly kaiju is from flying attack human and i will try to find a pic from a book that shows the characters . to the left of the mouse ( ganba masudaya talker ) is fire man dash from rainbowman warrior of love . will aslo try to find a better pic of him and his cohorts . the big 2 headed kaiju is a marusan original and one of my favs . will aslo post a better pic of that too .
these are the nakajima nodders from rainbowman . very similar in design to the astro mu . nakajima also made a line of nodders for gatchaman and zone fighter .hard to find these with all the boots and gloves and unless you get MIB its near impossible to have the stand and the pully with string .
So many awesome toys. I have a million questions, but one is -- Who is the guy on the second to bottom shelf, back row with the black gi, gold belt and blue skin? Also, what book is that?
this is the cover of the book . a friend of mine got it for me on amazon japan for about $25 .mostly heros from the 60s 70s and 80s . if you have more questions by all means ask . that is what this forum is all about .
Of all the questions spinning in my small Fresh Meat brain, one stands out louder than the others; what's with life size masks? They are amazing, had no idea that these existed, thought more in terms of Halloween stuff or at best, Mexican silk'n'velvet stuff. Could you and/or akumizer address the masks thing?
Not Ninja Arashi, but the evil blue dude to his left (our right). Thanks for that book photo -- Does it have an ISBN?
oops . what i meant to say is thats a ninja arashi villian made by bandai . dont have any of the smaller kaiju but i believe akumizer does . the ninja arashi was made into a giant size but only one villian was made and i will see if i can find a pic of that . the masks that i see for sale come from thailand and are of really good quality . akumizer has a ninja arashi mask also i believe from thailand . i can send a link to the ebay store if anyone is interested . thanks for all the kind words !
this is the main bad guy in the ninja arashi series and the only giant size villian made from this show .
