an original goes for 31 500 yen . thought maybe the craze for the new vinyls that the old ones might go up in value but thats about the price it was going for a few years ago .

dont really know that monster but a lot of old " pirate vinyls "are being used for the basis of new toys .
someone on this board can tell you exactly when the astro mu figures were made but it will be early 70s .
when i first saw the king mai mai and king bockle on yahoo i thought they were b clubs because they were so perfect looking . the red ultraman reminds me of years ago seeing one like it at nakano and watching mark nagatas jaw hit the floor .

Doraemon, Doramichan and friends vinyls
Any of you vinyl gurus care to clue us in as to why this set went for over 168,000 yen? (it was on Yahoo Japan but it looks as if the auction was killed):

an original but beat to hell . didnt get any bids as the auction started at 15 000 yen . has been relisted at the same starting price .elderado , if i come across those astro mu vinyls i will let you know. hope you have a fat wallet cause they aint cheap . the only vinyl collector in the states who could tell you why the doreman set went so high would be rory yellen and know one i know has heard from hin in quite awhile .

I believe there are only 2 colorways on the IKB Smogon.

I saw those too, but forgot to bid.
They're the vinyl toy that was sold with each of the 3 Amazon Acroyears- I think each one actually has a name. Very cool, and that was a great price for the set.

The base is one of the "mini-tanks", the mini tanks are just about the hardest part of the astro-mu collection to complete, the only thing harder is the gun arm attachment and the artillery carrier. The mini-tanks are impossible. I only have 2 of the 6.
