Nice. I need to locate the Smokey version again.

Trying to find some choice pieces from the days of old, but it's been slow going...but it's been fun looking too. I just haven't been able to get into the new stuff--starting with the adult size figures. there are a few releases that looked cool, but I think my heart is where it has always been; back in the early days.

Always nice to see your scores.


Thanks. Yeah, the old figures that come up for sale are few and far between these days. But even rarer old figures don't go for much when they do show up. It seems insane to me that people will pay ~$300 for the brand new adult-size figures, but not $60 for one of the original Mutant Heads. I still prefer the original size RxH figures to the adults. I'm glad Mori is developing his toy line and brand, but the new stuff interests me less and less, particularly the collabs.

I have a soft-spot for Gatchigon and that one is great. I'm pretty sure none of the production runs
used clear-red as a base. ...


None of the normal Gatchis used clear red vinyl as far as I can tell. The two others I mention are: (1) a painted one-off given out at one of the Junkspot events in 2007, and (2) a clear red filled with GID shards that sat on the shelf with the paint samples and customs at the old Shinto Gangu.

Your set is a nice sampling of the Gatchigons over the years- from the first one in clear smoke to one of the last non-micro runs in clear glitter.

Had to take it to the next page. I can't believe you are able to find some of the older sculpts.. This clear red is so great. Can you update with a group shot????

I'm with you G, that Milkborg is definitely one of my favorites of all time! That clear red Gatchigon is also a beaut tho!

I don't know if I can fit all of the Gatchigons into one shot at this point... there's a lot. I'm trying to get them all displayed in one place. Will post a photo once I have them assembled.

Classics! Do you have the unpainted green grub that came with the clear smoke Gatchigon?

Unfortunately, his previous owner did not have it. I always loved the grub for this release...sigh. but gachigon is looking great..! I'm hoping to find a green vinyl Head to join the crew.

^^ Love the scrambled-egg chaos man.

Unpainted grub in full effect . . . no glitter version though (boo!). Although technically its a 'shoot' because Gatchi is a Bamboo creature . . .

I've been on a bit of a vinyl kick lately and pulled my RxH shelves apart to rearrange, so I was able to snap a couple nice pics. I've got a handful of new Adults on the way soon and have been loving what Mori's up to these days. The fact that they are so hard to get is probably a good thing, because otherwise I'd be broke from buying new RxH toys every week when he opens up the shop!

Great to see a RxH collection with both old and new stuff.

It has to have old stuff because new stuff is so hard to get! :lol:

That's actually not true, I shouldn't complain. I've been able to pick up a nice selection of the new Adults recently. Just, you know, for real prices. Not like the old days.
