looks like he's doing more than enough to get his toys out to deserving fans. Hopefully I'll have some luck for the painted release which based on the very small teaser, looks fantastic!

PS. i hope that's a new poster coming out.


I think so, if you look in the background you'll see test paints that match the painting. By the way who is doing that painting, Hirota ?

That's not Hirota painting there.

Hirota always makes a sample set of figures in the colors that he wants depicted on the paintings so that the painter has a model to look at.

Masami Watanabe painted the last 2 HS posters. He has done many art on a lot of tokusatsu packaging for toys back in the 60s and 70s.

Looking forward to the chances of another poster. I'm curious of the process Masami uses to create these. It looks like he does a BW image and goes over a print with gouache or watercolors.

Edit...

Arghhh...Already? I think what stings more than losing the lotto's is how many of these don't go to people who would keep them.

It makes me wonder what the actual percentage that Hirota choose for actual international sales. I see his stuffed flipped much more now in Japan than outside.

I don't know how much that would help. My buddy got married by one down in Guatemala or someplace and it sounded like he just paid the guy a bunch of money to rub oils on there feet at sunset.

BTW...Posters are not out as far as I know.

No...someone was given both. Before conspiracy theories start, this is a pic from a special friend of Hirota's in Japan.

Thanks for clearing that up. Saw this reposted on Instagram and thought well I'll be... Then came and saw Andy posted the pick and your clarification, it makes the most sense.
