Hey guys!

After some more toy ID help.

Pics below from Chairman666's Instagram - the hair was added as a joke if yr wondering:





...all i know is it's about 30cm high, and this one was originally blank.

Help very very much appreciated. This thing is high on my want lists now!

Why not start one thread with all your toy I'd help?
And why didn't you just ask this person posting the image? I just find it weird that people stalk other people on instagram and then post on here asking questions.

^^^^
...Bryce!

I DID ask Chairman666 + the whole 'Puple Toys' gang. None of 'em knew the maker.

...Figure were better to find out than here ya know?

HELP?!

Thanks!

I google hyakume and this came up.

...thanks man!

Got a box pic now:



...sadly though that site had no other real info as to who made it, and when - unless i missed something.

So still need help!?

* Maker ?

* Year Released ?

...the site you found - were the box image is from - is a damn cool Biker n trash-culture site, just wasted about 30minutes staring at pics.

Yep, definitely a 'garage' model kit . . . hand painted.

Found an old Mandarake Nakano 'Special Museum' page . . . . looks like the maker is 'Armstrong'.

...thanks so so much man! As always this is why i love Skullbrain.

AND HOLY CRAP THE DRAWING OF THE HYAKUME IN A HAT ON THE BOX!!!

Final questions.

Would a kit like this be hard plastic, or soft vinyl?

And what year?

...i had a google search, but couldn't find out anything else...

AND another added to the want list it looks like...

This page says soft vinyl.

The fact it's on the Nakano 'Special Museum' page would suggest its at least pre-90's.

When I first saw this topic my thoughts were "garage kit" and "ask Moog"... I probably should have gone with my instinct.

Not to be rude though mate, but maybe you should have a dedicated Toy ID thread? Actually maybe there should be one for everybody, because it's not like we all haven't asked before.

...HUGE thanks again Moog!

And Re:



And i kinda like stand alone Toy ID posts as it means they can be easily searched later if anyone else needs help. Thoughts?

AND to finish, figured i'd cut/paste the translation from the page Moog found... Ahhhh Google translate...

"Is a hundred eyes. It is the specter of the devil-kun, was out.
Certainly, from a place called Armstrong, had been released
I think that it is a thing.
In soft vinyl, size, I guess much forty centimeters. , Gray hair in a different baht
had become is, I was surprised. Monster is also a favorite genre, but in the garage kit so much I wonder if not already."
