I don't collect them, but I have a couple and think they're great.
I would love to see a montage of the different feet. That's what makes them so special for me.

Here is the only one I have. I think its name is Abdorahurs or something like that. Would like to get more from this Popy line eventually. Nice pics above, guys. I especially like the Gabora.

That Taigon statue is made by Chikyu-boueigun honbu and is about 6 1/2 inches tall. This company made a few Mirrorman and Silver Kamen kaiju that look fantastic. Here's a pic of the three that I have, from l to r: Taigon, Kirugisu Seijin and Blackgon. I believe several more of these statues of different kaiju are in the works.

Re: anyone esle collect Popy "King Zaurus"?
Great pics!
Isn't it interesting how the crudeness of the Popy vinyls is a different style of crudeness than Marusan/Bullmark stuff?

Re: anyone esle collect Popy "King Zaurus"?
They can vary quite a bit depending on the figure, but most fall between 5-6", maybe just a bit smaller on average than the old Bandai figures.

Re: anyone esle collect Popy "King Zaurus"?
Wow Coop, superb shots as always, and sweet collection. Not much else to say, when you bring it like that . I'm glad there are some other Popy fans out there. I really love some of the subtle paint application on a lot of these guys, the blue on that King Joe for instance.

I have a few myself, I really love these so much. The Gamakujira is awesome! But I think my favorite is the Gyango.

Re: anyone esle collect Popy "King Zaurus"?
Welcomed a new friend into the home today: Also thought I would post some shots of these guys I picked up recently. They are re-issued versions of the King Zaurus line from 2003, which until I saw them, I didn't even know they did. The Garamon in particular is a favourite of mine from the OG line, probably one of my top favourite Gara sculpts alongside the Nostalgic Heroes version. With bags/headers Loose, and ready for play
