Post My first Bullmark
Thanks to vintagevinyl, I now have my first piece of vintage japanese vinyl that is in nice shape. Bullmark's Gronken is such a fun character. I love the buzzsaw mohawk he's sporting. Thanks again Jim, I think you're getting me hooked on vintage slowly but surely.

Gronken and his one of a kind display stand. I call him bling tiki.

Looks like he has circular buzz saw blades for hands and knees. Very nice!

did you get that one off of YJA? I've been eyeing one on there for a while - great score - that's a very nice figure whether you're beginning to collect
Bullmarks or have been at it for a long time.

It does have a distinct smell to it. I remember Jim telling me that Bullmark and old vinyl has a scent and I can appreciate it now.

I didn't get him off YJA, vintage offered him up to me after he got another. Who knows, he may have gotten the one off YJA.

It's a very distinctive look over the newer stuff. Thanks again Jim.

What is the difference between kaiju and ultra kaiju?

Ultra kaiju = from the Ultraman show.

On side note, if I'm ever bored, I just plug "sofubi" in yja and just surf the hundreds and hundreds of pages.
