New box from YJA:

Image
I don't know why but Hedorah erasers just hadn't been around, and then bam, 4.
Still kinda spendy, but now I know that they exist!

Image
Same was true for pink baragons, moguera and really different gaigan. Couldn't find any and then bam again.
Shown with some glowies.

Image
Wasn't always a big gamera fan, but when I saw the paint, had to get it. No idea on age or maker.

Image
Supposedly real bullmark painted erasers. Next scan shows the marks on backs. I pretty much overpaid because I thought that they were purty, not that I could authenticate anything. Still think they're purty. Skeletons in bags are GID, liked 'em because they looked more Mexican Day of the Dead even if they have yokai on the headers.

Image
Anyone care to translate? I'm more than half afraid that it spells out "Dumb gaijin".
Ah well, more tomorrow along with my new minis and GIDs....
out.

Those little GID skeletons are so cool. Wouldn't mind finding those myself.

Also, what is that mini with the black belt with yellow 'X' on it in the second picture?

Very cool stuff, but that Gamera eraser is a winner

円谷プロ = Tsuburaya Pro(ductions)
ブルマアク = Bu-Ru-Ma-A-Ku = Bullmark

I'd love a better pic of the skeleton and it's header when you take more pics.

And of course, no box from Japan is complete without some GID love:

Yeah, I never really liked the rough, crude ones or the overly detailed hobby nerd ones. One day the rough ones just hit me. Now I have a shelf full. Some of the full size early ones (and their later repros in brighter colorways) had really rough sculpts too. Really nice "feel" in the hand.

Biollante rules! I've tried my hand at scoring the only 2 I've seen pop up, but failed each time. No biggie, but very nice score! Did he come with the Hedo's?

There was a nice bio 'raser on the 'b*y, but I don't know who got it. This came in a big batch with one of the small hedos. Other hedos came different ways. People on YJA either sell an individual piece high, or use it to "salt" a batch of less promising or even broken crap erasers.
On the one hand, you don't get 200 pcs. of rubber that you don't need, on the latter side you help keep your cost per piece down. It's a trade-off.
I have over 1000 extra pieces now; the only way I can sell them at prices americans will pay is to make up mini-batch grab bags, like on YJA. Have this feeling that once I do that, they'll catch on again for awhile after I'm out.
Which is cool if I can get my room back and still keep the 2 hundred or so that I want.

So many great toys in these shots!

Sorry to bring this thread back up, but I have to know -- Can anyone ID the mini on the far left? Spiral tentacle arms with creepy robot face. He looks very Kamen Rider villain-esque. Or maybe Barom 1? I don't know, he kind of looks familiar, but still unidentifiable.

For sure it isn't from Barom 1...
