I know they are crappy but those cheesy plastic premiums like in that Glico ad are exactly what I would have loved as a kid, especially that sweet Mazinger knockoff. They remind me a lot of these guys, which I loved as a kid (this is a different version, but the ones I had in the 80s were blue white and silver). Some of the best capsule prizes I ever had.

Not an ad, but here is a shot of some of these great plastic omakes:

I think this thread has ignited a passion in you Moog that I've not even seen dedicated to the pursuit of toys at times! Good stuff.

Nice to see GeGeGe no Kitaro, that kid with the airplane is amazing. This is wonderful, these are ads yet this (and the "cute " vinyls thread) touches a good spot - the simple joy of the toy and is priceless beyond all material value! :D

Haha, it is so funny to even think up such a photo shoot. I wonder what went through their minds when Tsuburaya approved the use of the costumes :mrgreen: The figures in the last image could be all Bullmarks, except the Giant Kappa, which is orginally a Nitto figure.

Interesting . . . and yeah . . . its such a mad photo shoot for a 60's women's magazine!

It looks like the models enjoyed themselves anyway :)

"Gappa", not Kappa! ;)

And that Godzilla the woman in the middle is holding is probably a Marusan given the banded silver spray around the joints.

Lucky ladies!!

Yes of course, simple typo. Thanks for correcting me [glad someone pays attention]. I was actually thinking they might all be Marusans, since the Gyango is also the characteristic dark paint job one, but ya never know.

Amazing stuff... I agree with what Moog said about Japanese design. I like to wander the aisles at the Japanese grocery store in Columbus, looking at packaging.

What the heck are those homemade robots? I love it!

That kaiju card set is a must have for me. Such great art of the Ultraman monsters. Any knowledge on whether this was a licensed set?
