Picked this up recently. Thought I'd share since it's something you don't see every day. 
Marmit's "World's Real Kaiju" mini-figure set. Always thought cryptozoology was cool since a friend gave me a book on it when we were in high school. This set has a bunch of weird ones, too. Front row: Frogman, Tsuchinoko, Flatwoods Monster, Mothman Second row: Ogopogo, Chupacabra, Nessy, Lukwata Third row: Winged cat, Mokele-mbembe, Russian yeti Neat, eh? |

They have these in Trashout. I got addicted while hanging out at the store. They are a great set of figures. I think their are gid versions of each figure. |

Wow- the rest of the glow set looks really good. I might need to track those down someday. Thanks for sharing your pics. |

I have the Flatwoods Monster. It was given away as a freebie with Hyper Hobby a long time ago. I've been told that these are in really high demand in Japan. Whoever thought that we'd be able to own a toy of Mokele-Mbembe? ;p |

I'm not so much into the mini-figs but those are great - both in concept and execution. I'm going to have to start hunting the glow set. |

If anyone knows where I could score a set of these, either the glow or painted, I would be very grateful for a link or some other lead 
I picked up a loose FWM from this set from this Japanese guy who has a store in Arlington Heights, near me, and guess how much it cost me? ...$1.50! I then went back a little later and bought the other one he had there, and gave it to Argyle Goolsby from Horrorpunk band Blitzkid. About a week later I found on ebay the Hyper Hobby issue with this as the special figure!, so I kept the one from that and sold the other one. I noticed that the paint color on the eyes are different on mine compared to the one in the picture there. That Mothman is beyond adorable. |

Stumbled across this on the net, looks like they reused some characters and added others:

Yeah that Jackalope is my pick of the litter too. Hopefully these will have some GIDs in the mix like the first release. |

I'm a huge fan of Cryptozoology. I have been since I was a kid. I need to track down a set of these. Any ideas where I can get that new set at? |

| Post subject: | Re: Marmit Cryptozooids |
The set in the first post comes up on YJA from time to time. I haven't seen the new one I posted in the wild anywhere, but usually with toys like this, they make lots of them. |

| Post subject: | Re: Marmit Cryptozooids |
Thanks for the info. I'll keep an eye out on YJA. I haven't bought anything from there before, but I did find a post online just now giving detailed information on how to go about using a bidding service to get items from there. I probably shouldn't know that information though, because I spend enough money in shops that accept US based customers already.
