Oh nice! That guy is fantastic. I really like the way he came out, quite nice details and colour + bonus vinyl cape :) . I think he would have been just a little better with more of an standard 'vinyl toy' pose, versus the action figure way he is handled now [I think I just like the old fashioned look], but it is all personal preference. Next to the vintage guy it sure makes a lovely duo.

That's a killer figure...but yeah, I agree with Steve: the stance is a bit wide for my tastes.

VAG Series 5

Image
[Image pulled from Sofvi.tokyo]

The only 1 I'm really interested in from this series is the green cap gid mushroom man. He reminds me of some toys I loved as a wee child - "GLO Friends", which were gid vinyl glow worms.

[Images of GLO Friends pulled from Google Images]

I didn't realize that there were So Many. I only had 2 or 3. They were most likely my first glow-in-the-dark toys, come to think of it...

Hmm, Ha, I kind of want to find a couple of these lil guys now. The spider with the purple cane & purple hat is probably my favorite.

Edit: that nostalgia died fast. kisses.

Ha! So Medicom is finally releasing Tiger Mask's Cave Ruler reprint (along with Zebraman):

http://sofvi.tokyo/160124-tigermask/

Tempted because I'd love a cape, but I already have an original.

I saw that! Of course now I immediately think of you ;)

You need to make a wearable version that you can spin in.

I know lixx! he's one of my favorite characters.
I'm just surprised they decided to do more tiger mask reissues 4 years after the first few (I can't believe it's been that long :shock: ).

LOL I completey forgot he's my avatar. Might be changing it soon although I love the shit eating grin on his masked red head! Have any of the Tiger Mask reissues been available for overseas? I think the answer is no but I forget.

I don't believe any of the nakajima reissues were available for overseas preorder, just the more recent newer style medicom releases.

I am really loving the 'back to the 1970s' Kikaider, so much goodness both in design and execution. I am far less excited about the Captain Action version of Ultraman though. Weird how two such similar toys could be released at the same time with such disparity; just odd (and probably unfortunate) timing I suppose. Anyhow, I would love to be able to get myself one of those RAH toys.

^ Y'know, I'm actually a bit charmed by the new Ultraman's mitten hands.

It looks like total replications of the originals so mask should come of I think. The seam is visible on the mask and there appears to Be something different at the base of the head. Hard to discern though...

It doesn't look like they do. The devilmans had the seams but they were clearly split in the photos where you could see the inner head. ON these toy it looks pretty solid.

It does say that these are samples, and the actual products may look different. I can't imagine that their masks would not come off.

So excited for this next wave. Now if only the first wave were out already!

The last two AM5 figures were announced and should be up for preorder soon. Just curious how many others are picking up this entire line (I am committed, but I hate preordering another two after not even receiving any of the prior four). At the end of it all, the entire line will run close to a grand! Ugh.
