 rocket pharaoh!!
i was very lucky to find this figure in japan, i had dreamed about it, but never thought i would have one. the cape is missing, one horn is broken off, and somebody drew a bloody stab wound in the stomach and some blood dripping out of the broken horn hole! i love the added story and character that comes with the damage, as well as the considerably lower price tag. does anyone have images of the stnadard size one? are there any others? there are a couple images from takeshit's garbage digger in S7 #10, but im not sure if it shows a complete set.

 Re: rocket pharaoh!!
That character is so cool.
I would love to see an updated collection shot of your stuff, Josh.
I have never once see that Marusan Guilala. Man, vintage is a whole 'nother can of worms that just can't be opened. But I respect and admire some of the older sculpts so much.
