heh... tubes.. I think this is sort of like Rock'em Sock'em Robots, only powered by an air bulb. Simpler than that, on second look. I think you squeeze the bulb to make the kaiju "fight", kind of like those fancy windcatchers that chop wood, etc. |

It appears they are engaging in an ancient pagan dance, calling down the Kaiju gods. To me it looks like the box top is a nice background to set it on, but it could be setup on anything. On second inspection, there does appear to be a hole on the box to set it on. Maybe there is a kaiju fluid that gets pumped and sprayed out. It would make a great wedding cake topper. |

Yes, it appears the box is also the base. If you look carefully, there is a sprocket hole in the center of the box lid, where that silver support pin plugs in. Best I can tell, the air bulb hose connects to the side of the box and blows into that white box/platform inside. Blasts of air lift the platform, pushing the pin that supports the kaiju up, and thus making them dance/wrestle by simple up/down jostling. Imagination seems to power the rest. Neat item. |

Yes, you are correct on all accounts. Fake bootleg monsters for all! |
