Post Last YJA box for a while, will work for toys. Who wouldn't?
Figured I'd enter abstinence mode with some fun!
First the glows:

Image

Godzilla sits zazen for the enlightenment of all sentient beings. Except mebbe the guys he's eaten and those pesky maser operators.

Image

Can't not love me some buta!

Has this romanji got it all?

Image

Black unitard? Check. Totally coordinated accessories; boots, gunbelt, polka dot belt and frisky scarf? Check. Kanji branded into skull face? Check. AND AN AWESOME BLUE MULLET! Double freakin' check!

Kind of a nondescript mini vinyl robot very close but not exact with the mekanda robo that was my first japanese toy in 1977 or 8:

Image

Finally some cheap GID party favor dino erasers. For me, it's kinda like getting crickets to feed the tarantulas and scorpions. Nice fat little 3 color Goji though!

if you didnt know, the romanji is kinkotsuman from the kinnikuman series

he was supposed to be the complete opposite of kinnukuman (kin meat man/muscleman)

his name means something like bones and tendons man. he was skinny and had to cheat and use a pistol to win.

i may be mistaken about this, but i believe he was loosely patterned after ric flair (being a smaller, dirty wrestler as opposed to the look obviously haha)

I'd say he's a dead ringer for Young Mekanda Robo:

Image

poysntixels, did you own the Young Mekanda or the Mid-Sized Mekanda?:

Image

BTW, that kinkotsuman is an awesome looking piece. 8)

pickleloaf; thanks! Knew that he was from the series, didn't have name or story!
J. B.; It's the medium. Here's a shot of the oldest very played with mekanda on the right, junior in the middle and a boxed mekanda that I chumped for on *b*y before I figured out that usually they go for a quarter of what I paid. Hmm.

But his dharma makes him eat cities. Will be reincarnated as purple children's TV dinosaur until karma is balanced.
