Some excellent scans here! That robocon one is insane. I love that they threw taiho buffalo into this add for some strange reason.

I was thinking that same thing. That Buffalo is just amazing, the fact that he is holding the toys is great. I wish they had done more of him. I also really like the Popy and Iron Man ads, but who doesn't like giant robots.

Far and away though, the strongest here contest flyer just has me in awe. :shock: The sheer number of characters on it, the action, the artwork, the colours - spectacular! Honestly, if someone can do a high-res print off of that one, bless your heart and count me in.

Unfortunately low-res, but here are a couple of ads from a Popy catalogue or flyer I cam across. The Ultras featured are the ones released alongside the Kingzaurus line. I don't know anything about the Candy or Anne of Green Gables figures, but the Kamen and Gatchaman are really nice. The second image is a capsule pack of Ultra and Seven, that had a pendant figure included as a bonus. I don't know what the other capsule is exactly, but it looks fantastic. I think the head might be from the larger size vinyl Popy figure.

Sort-of OT but related to the topic...

Why did Machinder figures always seem to have the name of the robot plastered on huge stickers?

It kinda reminds of what happened in Transformers Generation 2, where Optimus Prime had OPTIMUS PRIME all over his trailer :P

I have quite a few of the capsule toys ... They were made mostly by a subsidiary of Popy - Patra ( which is the other logo in the advert ) with popy items inside. Here is that ultraman one from Steves post but looking at the little pic I think mine is missing a coin pendant, I had never opened it till today

Excellent Scott! Thanks for pulling it out and taking some pics for us. It looks even cooler than I imagined. I like that they took Popy products and decided to re-package them in a fun and cool way, even [maybe] recycling the parts. Sorry to see yours didn't have that pendant coin, but it is still damn impressive as it is. I have seen the keshi Ultras and other bits individually, but it would have been great to get this fun set as a kid.

Hooray for Ultraman Jack kaiju!! There are some beautiful designs there, and those psychedelic colours are stunning. I love the completely random and rainbow palette. I would just love to have a couple of these in my collection.

Superb find Moog!
