Marked "T. TAKEYA", "CROWD", and "MAX F." Sculptor Takayuki Takeya for Crowd Toys and Max Factory? Just under 3" tall. I got it on YJA, the auction page is not live anymore. It came yellowed in condition pictured, probably sun damage. .
Holy fuck this thing is mythical. Kichigai will flip when he sees this! Nice score and thanks for the pix.
these were promotional only via videostore(?) exclusive from Japanese entertainment market so mythical indeed, Baikin needs to see this.. GIDL by b-eaK, on Flickr not mine but the only pics i have found of bagged fresh ones back in the day japanese_belial-pnk by b-eaK, on Flickr japanese_belial_blu by b-eaK, on Flickr i am still looking for this figure over 10 years. there were 4 versions: 3 are GID, BLUE & PINK plus a few full color painted specimen also exist with the promotion ads and cardboard display
That is FUCKING CRAAAAAZY!!! Belial sculpted by Takeya???? HOW have I never seen this before?!?!?! (Don't mind me... I'm just back from Scotland and all hopped up on Haggis and Lavagulin...)
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I havent searched for this on YJA for sooooooo long, I gave up and I shouldnt have.
We had one of those in the toy store I ran here in Australia like years ago, just like the one in the first picture. I remember it clearly because we argued for days about what it was because it came in a lot with no header and the guy had put it with a little custom basket. I'm kind of spun out to see it again.

So cool . . . sounds like minimal chance of scoring one though. Did anyone ever do an Aylmer from Brain Damage? I loved Aylmer . . . Brain Damage was trippy as hell.
