forgot to mention = these average about 9.5", Ashuraman is 10"+

There's two different varieties of packaging. You'll find that the limited runs were bagged while the larger runs tended to be carded.

The FiveStar releases are really nice but they make me miss the Romando line from years back. They did some great stuff.

Romando is still doing some releases, however they are sporadic. Nice stuff, though!

That flesh Ashuraman is so nice.

I wish they were all available in unpainted flesh for the M.U.S.C.L.E. fans.

Agreed! While I totally love Five star's Toys and would probably trade out some of my other prized toys to acquire them Im really only interested in the unpainted flesh.

I think that Ashuraman was a one-off -- I haven't come across any that I can think of recently that weren't colored.

I'm now waiting for this GID version and the purple buffaloman to come in!

I couldn't find a proper ccp thread but saw a few of the same figures in this one. I crossed paths with this CCP Bloody set. Pretty damn sweet if you ask me! Does anybody know how big these are?

If you look at the top of the page, CCP Fan has some of the CCP figures next to the FiveStar figures.

Hi All,

Long time Vinyl collector, new to skullbrain. Came across this thread, and was excited to see so much interest in Five Star Toys.

I do a ton of Five Star Toy and CCP Kinnikuman coverage over @ http://www.nama-niku.com ~ have a large collection myself and an interview with the fine folks of Five Star Toys in the works.

Check out my past topics on the right hand side for all the Five Star and CCP stuff.

Thanks mate!

Also to be sure to check out Kinnikuman Sofvi Kenkyuusho:

http://asyuramankakaka.web.fc2.com/sub24.html

This is the best Japanese rescource for Five Star Toy figures hands down. The owner, "Overdrive," has every single Five Star sofvi ever produced in his collection... every variant etc... mind blowing.

I have lots of good links and info if anyone ever needs help ordering these figures.

Welcome, Nama Niku...I've definitely checked out your blog before (and I love your Gyu-Dome collaboration with TGB, by the way!).

Adn that Kinnikuman Sofvi Kenkyuusho page is awesome--VERY valuable resource for those collecting these toys. I've got almost one figure of every character so far, but I'm missing a couple. Once I get a few more waiting to ship from Japan, I'll be sure to post pics of my fucked up lil WWF! ;)
