This was a line form the early 200s time frame - the same time as the unifive repros. It only lasted about a year or so. The figures don't stand up so well, but they made 7-8 different figures. I think I have 6 of them. You used to be able to get them super cheap on yahoo, they were not popular.

Anyone out there have a picture link to the Unfive Kamen re-issues of the standard sized KR villains. I'm something of a compleatist...slow and steady...but man! those reissues are confusing the heck out of me. Would like to know once and for all which have been reissued and perhaps any way to tell the difference between them?

-thanks

I know The Wolf, Batman, Mantis, Scorpion, Sarracenia, and three versions of the Shocker guys. I have Wolf, Batman, and Sarracenia, but don't own any real deal standard vintage KR Villains so I can't comment on their belts. I suspect the reissues have thinner cheaper belts and there would some markings on the bottom of the feet distinguishing vintage vs reissue.

Finally scored the last giant villain I was searching for, Jigoku Sanda. Had some nice weather this weekend so I went for a group shot outside.

Oh wow, complete and utterly impressive. Congratulations! You've amassed ones in particularly nice shape as well, I should point out to anyone unfamiliar. That alone warrants a pat on the back. A lovely photo too. These guys look perfect against a natural backdrop. Thanks for taking the time, and for sharing it with us. :D

Ha Jonathan I was going to post a comment on Flickr today but since I refuse to upgrade my browser they won't let me! Fucking Flickr what a joke anymore.

Anyhow really impressed you found them all. Great shot. What is it about taking toys outside that makes them just look so much better?!
