Glad to see you finally picked up some M1 Gargantuas Josh! That Starfish Shocker guy kinda reminds me of Vegetius?

thanks folks!

the spectreman dude is the vintage one, the cleanest vintage piece i picked up on the trip. the white vinyl gave glenn nightmares in our hotel room!

the admiral puppy i think is from an old kids show, with actors in big fuzzy suits, like booska or something. i dont know much about it, but ive seen header cards and other packaging with a photo of admiral puppy and a couple other dudes riding in a hot air balloon. super adorable!

also yes, the mouth demon i picked up loose at superfest. i got a crazy good deal, and got so excited i dropped my money while trying to pay for it!

the starfish shocker dude pre-dates vegitus by a good while, maybe the kaiju big battle guys dig kamen rider!

the mini starfish dude was only like 3000 yen, and we saw a bunch of them across various stores. it shouldnt be a pricey addition.
