 Re: strange or rare yahoo auctions post here (after theyre o
Thank you for sharing the photos Lixx, I also think this version is better than Bandai. The detail of the translucent helmet is best, besides the art on the header card is awesome. I hope to have more luck and money for the next auction hahaha. I've also seen a couple of bootleg figures of Flying Attack Human, but the auctions always end up very high. Best regards!

I was super tempted on that carded set, but I didn't pull the trigger. mondocoyote wrote: Didn't post about this until the auction finished, but I guess this is why Mandarake has been bidding up all the AM-5 recently... http://ekizo.mandarake.co.jp/auction/item/itemsListEn.html?te-uniquekey=14b7b27eb1bThat playset was particularly annoying, as I would have been one of the highest, if not second highest bidder on that, only to see it thrown in an auction and not sell. Nice work on artificially inflating the market.

Couple of nice looking bootlegs in there, but the rakugaki (writing on figures) is heavy.

 Re: strange or rare yahoo auctions post here (after theyre o
There are some methods, but I think it's tough once the ink is deeply absorbed into the vinyl. I usually just avoid "named" toys in the first place, but there might be some people here who have been able to successfully remove ink marks.

 Re: strange or rare yahoo auctions post here (after theyre o
Yeah I agree with Andy - the marker gets adsorbed into the vinyl and over time is not possible to get out without aggressively treating the toy ... if the writing is over paint forget it.

Agreed pretty steep price for toys with writing all over them. Only really rare figure in there is that Devilman bootleg mini.

 Re: strange or rare yahoo auctions post here (after theyre o
A couple of interesting ones ended this morning. I am not up on all the Red Baron variations, but this one was perfect for me based on its size (27 cm - I mostly collect standard and larger figures). Despite the stains over much of it, it went well out of my reach. Anyone familiar with this?  Then there was this Mazinger Z vinyl. Looks like maybe a KO? I've never seen it before, but I would not have expected it to go this high.

I think the Mazinger Z it's a bootleg, but ended too high for me.  But it's a good piece! And I saw the Red Baron too,

Man! I've been looking for this set for some time! And I had to miss it! I saw it for a long time on ebay and passed on it. Of course now I can't find one. Alebrije wrote: Bandai * Jetter Mars * two-body & Rockets *Sold for: 26,500 yen

Removable mask DevilmanWent for: 33,100 yen I do not like too much the detail of feet and fists painted blue, but it's still a great piece. Congratulations if somebody here was the lucky winner.

 Re: strange or rare yahoo auctions post here (after theyre o
The blue painted 'accessorries' is a bit unusual - have not seen that before. I am not sure how I feel about it, particularly considering the character (almost like the painter was just going by a standard tokausatsu superhero aesthetic), but in light of the inflated price it went for, I think I will still with the typical bootleg. Interesting variant to see though.
