    Agreed, another brilliant haul. You know, I have always loved that two-headed delight (Dagigon), but I think that is my favourite version I have seen to date. Got to say I am very jealous man. Fantastic taste, and wonderful toys you picked up there.

    I need to get these one day, Sunguts Yokai and Obake are really quite charming. The Karakasa Obake is great, I think it just was released.......

    Also love the Chochin and Hitotsume Kozo- all are spot on and its nice that Sunguts is never exploited like other Japanese toy lines

    So, what are the three black guys with the same bodies? Not talking about The Fat Boys, btw :o

    Oh right. I was thinking it started with a 'Dia' but that's about as close as I got.

    @ultrakaiju Thanks for the info, I did not know the character and I found out he was from a book :"Sekai no kaiju". Very interesting.
    @kichigai The Karakasa Obake in GID will be release at the yokai festival in Osaka in august. I will try to have one. There is another maker who made a karakasa who looke like Sunguts style but don't remember his name.
    @Odibex They are from the Sunguts yokai set, there are at least 6 of these little black yokai plus the bigger yokai and others folkloric characters.

    I did not know that! I can't seem to find an illustration of him, though. Nor can I find anything on the Sunguts yokai set. i gotta find myself a more accessible hobby!

    Indeed. Close up, you can get such a nice appreciation for the sculptwork and paint on this fella. And the slight angle from below really gives an extra little bit to that wonderful frown of his. WARNING: Gary collecting is a known addiction, Rei. You are only tempting a lifelong dependence with these additions.

    @Odibex You can find more infos here : https://kaijuartcollection.wordpress.com/category/kaiju-book-review/
    About Sunguts it's really hard to find informations about this maker, there are not a lot of collector of these stuff outside of Japan.

    @rattanicus I really love this Garamon, great paint.

    Thanks for the link. It does mention Dagigon, but I still don't see any representation of the two-headed, four armed beast we know from the Dagigon toys. Oh, well.

    ;)

    No apology necessary!
    Would love to see what he really looks like, though. I thought he was just a made-up kaiju.

    Nice man, those are actually really great (and lovely Gorgos too). One step closer to my oft-repeated dream for some standard sized/scaled buildings for my toys to trample.

    Those are wonderful vinyl building sets. Man I ran over to slavexone quickly to see if any were available. All sold out. The pricing is just great. $15 for 2! I hope they make more building styles. What a great fun idea.

    As per @toothaction's request. Never mind the stainy shelf, that's sh*it's high up in a closet, so I don't even see it. Well, until now, that is

    I guess I'm not acquainted with everyone's tastes at this point, but may I ask why the surprise?
