 Who says you can't find vintage toys in Hawaii anymore?
Well I just got back from a vacation to Honolulu for a friends wedding with this haul in tow.  There just happened to be a collectors show going on in a convention 10 mins from our hotel. We heard that some toy dealers would be setting up, so we decided to give it a shot. Super stoked that I found some stuff on the trip, the dealer was a super nice guy and liked to cut deals. I have more photos of the items on my Flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jordan_lei ... 288133196/

Nice Haul. I especially like the minis you managed to score. You were definitely very fortunate to be travelling at just the right time it seems. Congrats!

That's an awesome haul. How tall is the Ultraman? Looks like 14" maybe? And that orange standard size guy (can't remember his name now - begins with a "V" i think) - i think he's kind of hard to find. Not super rare but not common either.

The Ultraman is a bit over 14" and the standard kaiju is Velokron from Ultraman Ace.
