 Catfish or Mole or Which end is up-out This has to be one of my favorite monsters ever! It's the head of a Mole? and it's butt is a catfish. What on earth were they smoking? The hands are capable of destroying large buildings. It's from the company Masudaya which made a lot of the old Spectreman figures. I'll take a better shot and post in the collection page this weekend

That's absolutely killer!
I actually scored the Spectreman complete series on dvd from Yuki (Kimono My House) this past summer. Haven't watched it yet...but after seeing kaiju like THIS in toy form, you bet I'm psyched!
Also, I *just* scored that clear yellow Spectreman you have in the background. Got real nervous when I received it because the toy stank and had a weird greasy film to it. The inside of the bag wasn't doing so well either. Fortunately, a little hot water, soap, and a few minutes cleaned him right up!

A Dr Gori creation 
I never get tired of watching the old Spectreman tv show
As far as the clear yellow Spectreman I attained it without a bag. Maybe yours was in there for sometime? In result to the strange residue... nonetheless great figure. I'm not too sure who made it, guessing bear model?

Did someone re-do that about 1-2 years ago? I think I saw one in a different colorway and less textured modeling on the bay. I stupidly underbid and lost. Goofiest character.

Yeah... I think it was CCP? Someone may correct me on this one.. or maybe it was Bear Model. Great monster, Bakura or Bakula is another favorite.
