Re: Tiger Mask
Good Stuff, Moog! Thanks for posting those!
Anyone know if Medicom has plans on reproduce this entire cast of characters?
Would be interesting if they also gave us a character or two that never even made it to the prototype stage.
Hmm, Moog are aware if all figures featured there were produced? This is my 1st time seeing a couple of those figures, & I know of at least 1 that is missing from this roster.

All of those guys were produced and some more! The original standard size Nakajima series has 25 figures all up ... but there are 3 versions of Tigermask and 2 versions of Mr No.

Re: Tiger Mask
Yowza! Then there's a LOT of them I don't know of. Thanks, Scobot. Ha, now I'm even more curious as to Medicom's plans

boo velvet wrote: Another place you might want to check out, Spacemonkey, is Nakama Toys. I'm not sure which of the TM Repro figs they have available, or even if the prices are reasonable, BUT I did see that they carry some in their new store (online). I remember specifically seeing Lion Mask, Golden Mask, & Tiger Mask in their blog, but again, there could be more. Wouldn't hurt to check anyway. Oh, I also recently received an email that Angel Abby JUST became Medicom "certified", so it also wouldn't hurt to ask them about TM repros you're interested in but that Medicom's not offering "overseas shipping" to the public for (not quite sure how that works). In fact, let us know what you find out. Seems like it would be helpful info for others' interested as well. Good Luck! Thanks Boo Velvet. We have 5 of the Medicom Repros right now. Tiger Mask v2, Red Death, Lion Mask, Miracle 3, and Golden Mask. They are in the Anime section at http://www.nakamatoys.com

Re: Tiger Mask
^ It sure is a nice one I've still got that itch of curiosity about whether they're planning on reproducing the entire line. How great would a shelf look lined w' a plethora of new & shiny Tiger Mask? I cant imagine how difficult, if not close to impossible, that it must be for those trying to collect all of the originals. Oh how I'd love to see a shelf full of those though. Seems like it would take a life-time to find, & even then I doubt it'd be complete... Nobody here by chance holds this title do they?! If so, Much Respect. HAVE to see a pic! I mean, how else are we going to believe you But Yes, Please Show! :pretty-please_smiley:

Re: Tiger Mask

Re: Tiger Mask
This is probably a total N00B question, but . . . . . how hard would it be to find just the mask on its own for the Tiger Mask standard size? I won 6 of the vintage figures recently and Tiger Mask doesn't have his mask . . . .

I won 6 of the vintage figures recently and Tiger Mask doesn't have his mask . . . . Pretty difficult. You could try to piece one together (wait for one with no boots but has the mask) but it wont be cheap. I would just buy one complete and try to sell the maskless one. I tried this with a barom one I had a while back missing the belt but had the mask/boots. I gave up and sold him eventually. Ill keep an eye out for you though.

Re: Tiger Mask
The lot i won has arrived . . . thought i'd share a pre-clean photo of them. I'm really happy Tiger Mask turned up with his mask after all . . . it wasn't included in the photo when i was bidding. a bit closer-up

You really lucked out...im sure it went fairly cheap because of this also. They look like they are in nice shape , the piranha -man has a lot of silver spray, usually thats mostly worn off. Great scores Moog!

Re: Tiger Mask
^^ got them dirt cheap. I doubt if i will ever get that lucky again (but you never know). The piranha man and lion dude are in the best condition out of the 6.
Now i have them in hand i can really see what all the fuss is about - these are totally killer figures! Time for some careful cleaning.
