They are made from the original molds, so they have the same markings, but are a very thin and cheap flesh vinyl. There are both Godzilla and Ultra flesh figures in standard and giant size, as well as a few random characters like Daimajin. They are a light flesh color. There is no rhyme or reason to which vinyls were made other than what was available at that time. Mogera is probably the easiest to find, and is very common. There are 30+ flesh 1983 vinyls.

As I said, I just find it all very interesting, but I guess I am a toy nerd who is obsessed with stuff beyond hype and value.

They ended up on the shelves in the back and for a long time, if you peek around the velvet rope at the old shop, you could see them.
I think someone took photos with them at one of our shows. Maybe it was Kirkland. I feel like I've seen them on skullbrain before.

I think the baragon ended up staring at us for years, we eventually traded him to someone for a pizza.
I may be making that up.
