 Most of my vinyl collection
This is most of my vinyl collection minus a few random pieces that I don't have display space for at the moment.
Main shelf is a mix of Eastern & Western with some non-vinyl including a little LEGO.
Whole shelf:
Left side:
Center:
Right side: Just got my first Skull Pirate. Thanks, Hank!
Hmmm... Probably wise to omit my two small shelves. They're just Muttpop, Strangeco and no Kaiju.

Nice collection of the Biliken Pharaohs. Not into the Robot Riruze?
I also like that red foil Balbagon in the corner. You don't see those every day.

Also, diggin the Bib Fortuna LEGO, he was one of my favorite characters.

Dream Rocket Balbagon - not sure when/where the purple was released, might be a custom. I'm loving your woodring collection...

Probably not a custom. The foil versions were released at Design Festa in May of last year in very low numbers. I've only seen a handful for sale anywhere.

Akumen, I wanted the Robot Riruze figure, but once I saw it in person, I had a problem with the fact that it didn't seem to stand upright. Kinda leaned backward. For the money it was going to cost me I really needed it to stand up straight. I LOVE the Pharaohs, though. Still looking for that first colorway.
The "purple" figure on the far right is indeed a Dream Rocket Balbagon. I would say it's more of a metallic hot pink.

Is that so? I bought it off ebay under the impression that it was a custom. The guy who sold it to me said he bought it off YJA. He didn't know anything about it because he couldn't understand the Japanese in the YJA listing. I did see some pics posted somewhere of a few metallic/foil Balbagons sitting on a table at a toy show in Japan, though. Looked exactly like mine, but green and blue blue foil instead of pink.

What are the light blue and gray figures that have a hatchet head coming out of a larger head in the second picture - those are great sculpts - kinda like voodoo dollish in a way

I wish I had more Woodring stuff. I really want a Mantra. I had a chance to get an unpainted Mantra off ebay a few years ago and let it slip through my fingers. Haven't seen it anywhere since then. I'd take a painted version if anyone has one they don't have room for.  I still want to get the rest of the Dorbels, too.

Yeah, there was a green foil (which I have), blue foil and a glittery black w/ gold eye released at that show, as well as a red/pink foil Balbagon.
I saw the red Balbagon for sale on YJA, but passed at the time. I don't remember it having a yellow eye, though. But who knows.
Anyhow, it's almost definitely an actual release, although a low-run undocumented one in any event.

Billiken Pharaohs. The blue one is GID, but I don't have individual pics of that one.

Looking good. I really like the last Pharos release and didn't realize at first that it was clear.

The set-up looks pretty nice!
The Rainy Day was my first pirate as well!

I kinda suspected that buying the Rainy Day Pirate would put me on a slippery slope. Now I'm eyeballing some other colorways and my bank account is on high alert.

i love the random lego dudes sitting in the mix. makes the larger kaiju pieces seem all the more menacing! you should totally get some of the hospital/gas station/strip mail/etc. lego sets and create a big city for all the monsters to destroy!

I have so much LEGO, I could build an entire city for these guys to smash. Problem is, I just don't have the time to build on that scale. I hardly build at all anymore. I've begun to sell off my LEGO collection because it mostly just sits in storage. Re-entering my Dark Ages, I guess.
