Post it has been a while....
Another little update on the vintage front. January was officially my month of "you were outbid". Check it.

Outbid!

Outbid!

Outbid!

Outbid! (not sure who they are, but they are cute!)

This was the most frustrating. I have a complete set of the series1 Masudaya wigglers, but the series 2 I always seem to get outbid on for nominal amounts. Not that rare or sought after, just apparently meant to avoid my house.
Image

Luckily I was able to win one thing this month, but it was a great one. Thank God for BIN. Now all I need is the Mazinger-Z on the card to have the entire set carded!

For fun and grins, this was up on yja and is probably the worst bootleg I have ever seen. Cross dressing pink ranger. I bet it was originally the green ranger....

The four bars on the chest make it the Pink ranger, unless there is a fifth bar they didn't paint. Wild stuff though. Looks like another rangers head for sure, maybe Red.

These squirrels are the mascot of the Jonan Shinkin Bank -- get it? Squirrels save nuts for a long winter, and the Jonan Shikin Bank will save your money for a rainy day!

Hope this helps, Brian!

Love those mascot squirrels and the Gudon.
The Taro flashes it says at the top? It is like a flashlight in the head or does it spark or something?

Yes, the head flashes on top; it says "Furashu Kosen" or "Flash Ray."

The funny thing is, the Tiger7 used to be the easiest one of the light-ups to find, then some wacko on yja about 2 years ago bought 4 or 5 of them, running the price all the way up to $800 each for the last couple, when they used to be $80. You can still find Red Baron for $100-ish, but the others have become increasingly difficult to find.
