Post Vintage "Fight Figures" & More
I made my first YJA purchases and sheesh am I hooked! What a great resource for vintage stuff I'd be hard pressed to find on the bay.

These series of pics are of a really nifty, MiINT, dead store stock kaiju toy from the 60s.
Two kaiju in the grips of battle or ring around the rosie, made out of celluloid and painted, about 3.25 inches tall. Hinged with metal pins, the two figures are attached to a long stem which is placed in the center of the box lid through a plastic rivet to stop the paper box from tear & wear. The inside bottom of the box has a piece of glass with a tiny paper bag underneath which inflates as you squeeze, to the connected rubber air ball. As you repeatedly squeeze air the figures bounce up and down with bodies flaying as in a fight!
No markings on the box or figures.

An old vintage Big X record/storybook and cards. One of my favorite Osamu Tezuka characters.

Some dead store stock Planetary Boy Crayon and pastel sets.

Vintage Inflatabes (Jenna Jameson inflatable not pictured)
The Big X was a recent YJA purchase, he's from the late 60s, Gekko Kamen from the 70s and the fantastic Oghan Bat is from 1967 with original tags.

Incredible! Love 'em all, but especially the squeeze-bulb toy. I remember hoppy little squeeze toys like that from when I was a kid in the 60s/70s, but don't remember having any quite that cool. Truly awesome stuff, congrats on finding it. :-)
