 anyone know who this is?
I picked this figure up years ago - 8 1/2" tall haven't been able to figure out who it is. although pretty sure not an ultra monster - anyone know?
thanks!!

I'll tell you if you'll sell it to me.
...juuust kidding. It's Fundo (Hundo?) Seijin from Silver Kamen Giant, which was sold by Ark (apparently under its TV Kaiju Iron King toy line, if I am reading the translation correctly). Maybe someone who is familiar with the show can confirm/clarify.

It's a really nice toy. Ark/Orange definitely have some quirky characters in their lineup.

is it ark or orange? but definitely iron king (I think  ). there was one on yja recently - way overpriced. this is not an especially difficult or pricey vinyl to find.

that is the 'crown prince gill' figure from tiger7 made by bullmark. there are five in the set that size - this one, the oil guy, kappa guy, black mask, and tiger7.
they are rad.

The spiky guy up top from Silver Kamen is great. I have been trying to get a hold of that vinyl for a loooong time, he is tough to find! If Elvis has an affordable hookup on one, I am all over it.

Hey Brian -
Nah, i don't have a connection for it - I've just had a chance to buy him a few times and always passed. I can't remember the guy's name but about 5 years ago some dealer in Las Vegas had a ton of vintage stuff that i bought. he had this dude too but i passed. i think I've also seen it come up on ebay a few times over the years.
And there was just one on yja for 30000 yen which i thought was expensive. I thought this guy was more in the $150 to $175 range. If i can find the link to yja, i'll post it for you.
later dude.

here's one on YJA for 40,000 yen - it's more than twice the price i've seen this dude sell for in the past - but if you want it bad enough, here 'tis.

Here's another one for $100 less:

Those two auctions have been circulating for a while, so don't worry about someone grabbing them.
I could swear that the last time I saw Fundo Seijin go up, it ended well under $100... It is hard to find, but I seriously would not pay those prices- especially loose! All of my Ark/Orange vinyl has been acquired for under $80 at most.

 Re: anyone know who this is?
 the ark/orange vinyls that were made for zonefighter and silver kamen and iron king should go for $50 to $100 except the drill headed kaiju from zone fighter .

 Re: anyone know who this is?
beautiful - i don't think I've seen the blue dude on the far left - if i'm not mistaken, I think i've seen that guy in another colorway (like dark green) but never a blue one. is that rare or difficult to find? I've got most of those orange/ark vinyls but am missing the drill headed guy, the spikey dude that Brian is after and the blue guy on the far left.
Thanks for posting!

Thanks for posting! I've never seen a green Kapurigon... I have one and it is the same blue color. I never really cared for the drill-headed guy (Zandora), but he really stands out from the crowd in the photo, along with Akurion Seijin behind him. Such amazing color schemes.
