 secret base UFO toy set? has anyone heard anything about this? there are pics on the website of a series of 10 small flying saucers that look like candy toys and then supposedly you get a t-shirt with the set.
I think it's a split release with some other company maybe? Isaac? Brian? can anyone confirm this?
I'm interested. I like UFOs.

you should check out the set of Nakajima UFO die-casts released in the '70s. I believe there are 3 in the set...

These were a syokugan, or candy toy item. Blind box toys with candy available at convenience and grocery stores and some toy shops that deal with that kind of stuff. They came out a few months ago and didnt seem to sell that well, they were kind of expensive. I havent seen any recently come to think of it.

I picked some of them up at Giant Robot in March! Very cool, they come with a nice base and are very detailed.
