I can't and don't want to judge his collection but what the hell I think that his shirt is...well, simply incredible

That Mandarake one is from their sofubi appraiser. It sounds like they're saying all those boxes are filled with sofubi.

What's weird is it's usually pretty quick getting a price when you sell stuff there (and it's usually pretty low...). Maybe they call the guy? But he only gets to price the toys... When he finds time? And since the toys are distributed through all their branches... Questions questions. But cool video!

Thanks for sharing!

Good chunk of toy footage from Coop's collection around the halfway point of this.. Great video fom start to finish if you're a fan of his artwork!

Thanks for sharing, it was a very interesting the Coops interview.

No problem!

I'd love to see more toy videos popping up on youtube.. The old process/update videos that Mark Nagata used to put up were great!! Apparently Rich MVH is working on a process video.. Hopefully we will get to see that soon.

Just stumble across this.. Homies are shit but it's an interesting short video on capsule toys in USA. Plus he has a nice Social Distortion jacket so he ain't all dat bad, fo'get about it!!

Any chance you (or anybody else) can track down the Bullmark dvd doco and upload it to youtube or a file sharing site??

^^ yeah, i'd like to see that too.

i'd guess at zero chance of finding that online . . . . you would have to have a word with someone who owns the actual dvd and tell them how to rip it.

Uchouten manufacturing process . . . .

Wow such a strange way of assembling those figures.. filling them with cotton balls and then gluing the faces on!

I guess the design of the figure doesn't allow for a neck joint, and being such an open empty space it needs some support padding?

^^ yeah, super-thin and stretchy vinyl too.

Casting etc for large scale animated figures:
