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

 Re: toys from japan
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!

 Re: toys from japan
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.
