Post Bootleg shopping.
They're not vinyl, but definitely vintage. I went hunting for some bootlegs. Here's my haul. Unfortunately I found one I couldn't afford. Isn't that bane of collectors!?

A couple of these are incomplete but that makes them cheaper so...

love the blow molded ultraman stuff. i see them pop up on ebay from time to time. the mazinger is cool too but sometimes they seem to look too messy for my tastes.

Yes, I would've loved the ultratoilet :mrgreen: And if you see closely, there's another figure here that's trying to poop too.

@michael, indeed that Mazinger IS quite messy. Actually I picked it over another one that looked 'cleaner'. I found a mexican vinyl Popeye that I loved. Really really loved. Never seen it before but I didn't have enough money with me, wasn't even that expensive but wasn't thinking of spending that much there before going. It was like 120 usd for the Popeye and Olive set.

@brobles I loved that Chavo as well. I bought plenty of chespirito stuff this time.

that's Merlin the Magic Mouse, it's from the Warner Bros Looney Tunes line made by Dakin in the 70s.

Ah! Hahaha That's Memín Pinguín. It's actually a blue cap, but the perspective makes it seem as if it was his brains. He's a character from Mexican Comic books. Turned out to be kind of controversial a couple years ago, people claiming it to be racist. This figure in particular is squatting and when you light a match up his butt he expels something. :shock:

Ah! Thanks! It's more incomplete than I thought. This one in particular is Mexican made, so it's not Dakin. It's made by Jugarama.

the merlin is very cool and not expensive. I think i got mine for like $15. Look under dakin on ebay, and also, he does have a sidekick.

And a hat! He was a W.C.Fields tribute in mouse form.
