Post subject: | RxH Checklist? |
Ok, day one on the board and I did several searches first... is there a checklist for RxH or a good resource? Also, any good stores in Japan that accept PayPal... have dealt with Mandarake... easy process... any others? Thanks all. |

Addicted to RxH and Grody. New to scene... mostly into mutant evils... have a LASH custom and some others. Smoke a pack a day but not around the blessed toys. |

Start with the Mook. Not sure how you missed this thread either. viewtopic.php?f=3&t=26941 But no checklist. |

I don't remember if these are pages from the Mook or something else. I've had them bookmarked for a while now. RxH1 RxH2 |

those 2 pics are not from the mook, but for the most part those 2 pics contain all the toys you will find in the mook, just a bit more cluttered of pics |

In case the OP doesn't know, "the mook" (magazine-book) is this: http://www.amazon.com/Super-Internation ... 097966781X RxH production exploded once Shinto Gangu opened ... that was after the mook's release so what's there is "early" RxH. Still worth having to get a sense of where the brand started and how it's evolved. More generally if you can track down old copies of Super7 magazine, there are excellent introductions to numerous sofubi/neo-kaiju brands that include photo catalogues. |

^ not to nitpick, but you have "akro kaisers" labeled as "aero kisers." regardless, thanks for sharing those great kaizine scans! can't believe how much has changed in just a few, short years. r.i.p. kaiju-taro ![]() edit: "aero" -> "acro"? |

I just went with the english spelling of Aero Kiser that was printed on that catalog at the time vs the header card spelling. |

Nearly all new RxH figures since 2010 have been sold as small runs only available in-person at Shinto Gangu or Real Headz in Japan. Most of these figures use the old-style hand spray look, as opposed to the 2008-10 releases, which made heavy use of paint masks and washes. In addition, Mori had been giving out not-for-sale gift figures to friends/family for a couple years prior. This is an example of (what I believe is) a gift figure... bagged, but never sold to the public. ![]() Due to these two distribution methods, it's pretty hard to put together a comprehensive checklist as you move toward 2009 and beyond. |

It's a vain hope, but I'd love to see a full catalog of the newer big figures... Chaosman, Chaos Trooper, etc etc. Sigh. |

Some photos I just took from the book I mention. There are a few more pages of RxH in the book that I didn't take. Sorry for the bad pics. It's night and the lighting sucks. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

I wonder if Mori keeps a database or some sort of notation of everything he's done? The man must work like a fiend. |

Great sharing spirit, allot of great links here. I really like reviewing Dons photos every once in awhile, there's something magical about the old days of RxH, many collectors and toy makers draw inspiration from that period... http://www.flickr.com/photos/datadub/sets/1537160/ |
