Post New Vintage at Super7!!
Howdy Toy Connousieurs,


Have you ever shown your collection to that uninitiated friend, family member, or special someone, only to hear them ask 'what are these things?', or 'where do these sweet sexy thangs come from?'?? Well, here is the answer:

VINTAGE VINYL.

Vintage Japanese vinyl is the thing that started it all. Way back when most of us were half as tall as we are now, or yet to be, the creative geniuses at Bullmark, Popy, Tokastasu, Bandai, and others were hard at work creating the freaky amazing toys that inspired the creators of the freaky amazing toys we all know and love.

Here is a small trip back in time, and across the mighty Pacific, to a time when most toys were tied to radical action television programs, and creativity knew no bounds. Let us take a moment to reflect on where our modern boutique vinyl toys originated, and marvel at the genius of their forefathers.

All of the figures shown are available for sale, please Email alex@super7store.com if you're interested.
