The far left is a 5" popy Riderman (from Kamen Rider) and the far right is a version Kamen Rider 1.

Thanks for the plug, Jim. :)

Akumaizer, thanks for pointing out that was a bootleg. I had no idea. I really know very little about those things. All those little vinyls I came upon by chance, as they were throw-ins in a Jumbo Kamen Rider X auction.

bootlegs are interesting things.
I've got a little collection of them and it's amazing how much they got away with
There is one figure in particular that has been used several times over for different characters.
Bootlegs are so crude and weird that they're almost worthy of their own collecting niche...
Those yokai are pretty damn special to have been something just thrown in!!!!!!!!!!!
:shock:

Oh sorry! That was a misleading post by me. I meant only the Kamen Rider vinyls were thrown in. The whole auction was a Kamen Rider lot.

Man, I wish I had those Yokai thrown in!! Alas, I bought them all at Godzilla-ya in Koenji last December. Shop keeper gave me a 15,000yen discount for buying all four, but throw ins.....nah... :)

And as for bootlegs, man they are among my favorite things out there. Besides Jumbos, that might be my biggest claim to fame. Finding and hoarding all the crap toys no one else would care to even look at... lol
