 RxH Saburo and Goru If you look at the sets of Saburo and Goru (the dogs) in this catalog... i just got the one on the top left... kind of a semi clear rootbeer color and detailed painting on the faces:
Haven't been able to find information on these... just curious if anyone knows anything about the set... awesome vinyl!

Re: RxH Saburo and Goru Pretty sure those were the first two released. AKA "Cyclops Dog" and "Oni Dog." Considered difficult to display by some collectors, but still a good OG RxH find.

Re: RxH Saburo and Goru Here's mine to give a better idea of scale . . . its weird, but you dont see these pop up very often. I like them a lot, they are nice and chunky and heavy with a light glitter in the grey vinyl.  I dont think these are all of the colorways but these are the ones released between 2004-2008. I always wanted the clear 'root-beer' versions.

Thanks for posting the old catalog photos- I forgot that the Jinmenken were included in those. Which one is the root beer version? As far as I know, there is only one other set not shown: the tan base set from around 2009.

Re: RxH Saburo and Goru ^ maybe he thought the smoke was root beer, or he's just wishing for a root beer version

Sorry for any confusion . . . . Anyway, they all seem to go for reasonable prices except this set which tends to sell for silly money!
