Post Meary's Collection (lots of photos, Gargamel, Bwana, etc)
I havent really shown my collection around here, but Japanese vinyl is slowly taking over my shelves. Its a dreary day in NYC, but I had some fun with my new camera inside:

Heres the whole collection (I apologize if some of these toys offend :wink: )

Very nice collection, I love the mix up of styles. I'm partial to mixing it up, so well done! The Bwana gargamel pieces are just some of the best colorways of all of those figures.

They really do, all of bwana's toys look kind of like they came out of a forest.

Its one of my favorites, but its the one toy that most of my non-collector friends look at and tell me they dont like. If you're looking to take a risk the slightly damaged ones that pop up sometimes are usually pretty cheap. I think I got mine for less than $150 with some major smudges, but they came right off with a mr clean magic eraser and its close to mint now.

Thanks for the kind words.

Kidhunter rocks. I tracked one down last year.
Never noticed the heart shaped eyes on his pal...
