 Re: FiveStar Toys
That's pretty cool, but I'd *love* to see a Sunshine done in vinyl embedded with gold flake!

 Re: FiveStar Toys
They do all their sculpting by hand. They have been making sofubi for the past 15 years, so their newer stuff looks amazing.

 Re: FiveStar Toys
So, did anyone pick up the Pink Budo? Does anyone know if there are any plans for a painted release?

 Re: FiveStar Toys
I didn't ('cause I'm only grabbing the painted ones)...but what's interesting is that none have shown up on Y!J yet. I would have expected at least one or two to show up at flipper prices. So unless the toy simply hasn't come out just yet, or folks are holding onto them for dear life!
Me, I can't *wait* for the painted ones to drop! Of course, my FiveStar shelf is over-crowded as it is....but fuck it...BRING IT ON!!

 Re: FiveStar Toys
Sweet new Terryman...he just looks a bit odd to me with grey hair!  ribbon, that's funny that you're starting out on FiveStar with Yudetamago, the not-proper-Kinnikuman-character! Actually, he's the only FiveStar Kinnikuman sculpt I don't have a figure of. I should snag one to keep Niku company...

 Re: FiveStar Toys
Is that a whole new color scheme we haven't seen yet?? I feel like I've seen that somewhere before. Or maybe I'm just making it up!
Either way, it's fucking magnificent.
