Hello everyone, my name is Ed. I'm from the San Francisco Bay Area, I'm the co-founder and an editor at thehardtimes.net. I've played in a couple hardcore bands (Zero Progress, PURE). I've been a collector of numerous different things for as long as I can remember, first it was Ninja Turtle Toys, then Power Rangers, 3 3/4" Gi Joes, Pokemon cards, wresting figures, wrestling tapes and DVDs, Records, and over the past few years Sneakers.

I'm also a life long fan of Godzilla, my Grandpa loved the big guy and I have fond memories of watching old Kaiju movies with him as a kid. I'm very new to the sofubi scene, but the designs remind me of they toys I loved playing with as a kid and I can see it easily becoming my new obsession. So far I've been especially impressed with, Gargamel (Zag is my boy), MVH, and Paul Kaiju.

It's a pleasure to be Fresh Meat and a poser in your community. I look forward to learning.

Nice to meet ya, Ed. I played drums in a hardcore band for years in Vegas (just played Punk Rock Reunion after 13yrs!) ...Anyway, I've been digging the Hard Times. That Punk Mom embarrassed to drop off Juggalo Son one was esp. hilarious.
Cheers to you

Wassup! My name is Nhat and I've been collecting for a few years. I'm a web developer, guitarist and most importantly an avid toy collector. I'm learning to paint and do custom pieces so I thought I try this place out to see if I can get any advice. Look forward to talking to everybody!

Aaron, hey man I believe I met you at this past Dcon. You and Jeremi stopped in the lobby of the hotel to pet my dog (Boston terrier) I would have said more but I was so destroyed from the drive from San Francisco that I just wanted to get dinner and pass out.

Welcome!

Hey guys, my name is Ben and I just signed up. I have been a collector of so much stuff over the years,(comics, movies, music, t-shirts, beer labels, plastic models, etc) toys and figures included, but have only been collecting soft vinyl for about 4 years. I like a lot of what is out there, but my main focus is Max Toys, Rampage Toys, Splurrt, and MVH. Pretty much here to hang out with like minded toy folks and enjoy the scene. I don't get every piece I want, but I love every piece I get! :D

Hey, my name is Mikeal. I've been registered and lurking around for a little bit before this. I've collected toys since I was a kid, but moved around a lot and lived pretty ascetically most of my adult life. Pretty sedentary right now, so I guess I started collecting larger pieces again this past year or so. Still, I have a pretty small collection. I like tokusatsu and kaiju stuff, primarily, but also like specific RealxHead collabs and Shimomoku stuff quite a bit. Glad to be around; this board is a grea resource.

Hello, I am Mark. I live in Portland. I recently started reading this forum. I know a few members of this board from the vinyl record realm, and I am looking forward to contributing to the community.

I am a life-long Godzilla fan, and spent lots of time as a kid watching Toho film dubs on TBS, or anything I could afford to rent on VHS when not endlessly skateboarding. I have a heartfelt love for all things monster, especially vintage Japanese vinyl figures and toys, as they have always felt like a missing part of my life. I also collect vinyl record albums, and other heavy objects such as books (not rocks though, thankfully).

It has been inspiring to see a shared passion for these interests on this forum and elsewhere. It has also been really fun to watch the development of Super7 and all the other talented artists around the world crafting wonderful artwork and vinyl creations.

Wow, tons of new people recently. Great to see an influx of appreciative folks to the board. Welcome and enjoy the wonder of SB (and the black hole that all its time-sucking and money-depleting nature :P ). Please enjoy your stay and hopefully you'll all get to know the intricacies and knowledge the forum has to offer.

Hey guys and gals!

I started collecting sofubi kaiju a few months ago, then I switched to collecting keshi. I recently made the very regrettable decision to sell my few sofubi I had, but I'm probably going to start collecting again soon.

I'll probably flip-flop between the two collections just depending on my mood, but I don't think I will make the mistake of selling off a whole collection again.

Looking forward to getting to know you all and getting to see your collections.

Im Taylor, from Iowa. If you look at my join date Im not really new. However, I rarely post, if ever. I mostly lurk and buy occasionally when I am not broke from buying records which is my primary hobby. My collection consists of Orange/Black Super7 releases and a few others that fit into the color scheme. Figured maybe Id try posting a bit more and look forward to the verbal abuse.

Hello all. Name's Kevin and I'm from Houston, TX. New to the boards but not new to the vinyl toy scene. Been collecting designer vinyl for a few years now, but recently got bit by the sofubi/kaiju bug and knew I had to come and see what's popping on SB. Seems like a pretty well-knit community from what I've seen so far and I'm excited to be a part of it. Oh and thank you admins for the account activation.

Hello everyone, I'm a 36 years french Kaiju Sofubi fan from Marseille south France, collecting since few month. First of all I'm collecting comics and original comics arts (all kind) for years but I recently dove in the sofubi world and now I'm totally obsessed by these toys. Shape and colors make me crazy and I spend a lot of money to satisfy my vinyls needs. I hate western Artoys and I collect only Japanese Sofubi that have a soul (at least for me) mainly Bullmark reprint, US TOYS and Sunguts (Kitaro,Yokai). Sorry for my english. Be nice to me.
