Couple of Grody's stuffs from lullabell.

Thank you, EVOM. I keep seeing "lullaby" every time he writes that

Finally got my crap shipped from Japan. Quite a long time's worth of accumulation. Here is one item I thought I would share, and I need assistance identifying it. I am not a collector of this style of toy, but this one really caught my eye, from the great colors to the classic Japanese Oni style face. I believe its a one-off from an older show (possibly around February 2011). Any help as to maker, name of toy, show its from, etc. would be greatly appreciated. I can post the markings on the feet if needed, but I'm sure many here can probably ID the figure easily. Thanks in advance.

That is the Orochi-Oni by Yamazakura. Hmm, that one looks very familiar, although I can't recall the show offhand. I'll check.

Very distinctive paint work, and it is interesting that he included the 'limited one' card. Great score.

Yeah, that's a great looking toy, Kingboy!

I will soon know this feeling, I've been holding stuff with my agent for about a year and a half. It's gonna be huuuuuge.

Great figure too, my fav version.

I applaud your guys' patience. I'd be ripping my hair out. I can easily wait for something to come up for the right price, but once I've purchased it I go nuts with anticipating its arrival. Tip of the hat to you both!

I've seen the Aqua Man Orochi-Oni. Pretty awesome little dude in person. The header art is frame worthy.

I'm absolutely loving him, just delighted from the moment I took him outta the box. The red just hits all the right spots in just the right amounts. The way I lit this photo makes it appear as orange, with a light and dark, flame-like variance, but in person all of that is a pretty uniform, true red. I should take a pic in natural light for comparison.

would never really like this color way but Wow, this figure looks awesome! great pick up. let me see what i can dig up on the figure. I know Lamour had painted a set a while back that was floating around on the BST.

This figure was displayed at Wonderfestival in July 2010, marked as 'for sale soon'. Shortly afterward, Yamazakura stopped producing new figures. While I can't find any release information on this one, he may have just sold the paint test or given it away as a gift. It is probably one of the last figures produced by Yamazakura, making it a pretty special item.

Thanks so much for the info. Cool to hear. The seller had another similar figure (the one without the horns) in a different colorway at the same time, but since this is not my usual area of collecting, I just stuck with this one. Unfortunately, the photo is no longer up, so I can't share it.

Resisted getting one of these for a while, mostly size/price I guess. Glad I finally did, such a cool little toy in person ( sorry for the crap phone pic). Thanks andy!

Wait that's not vintage lol

Found some Slash:



I really love the size of the MG's not too big and not too small.

DAMNN!! thats a good mail day lixx!! would love to have all five of those.

Yeah, the Slash MGs are really something. Excellent proportions, cool expression, fantastic colours, plenty of sculpt detail. I really love some of the classic painting schemes, e.g. Bullmark and Popy, but the others are excellent too. I definitely need to find some GID vinyl dudes to see in person what they look like glowing.

Just one would do for me
