Re: Tiger Mask
These are just Amazing! Thanks for sharing. I am waiting for my first 2 to come in the mail… hopefully soon . I didn't really need a new thing to collect, but how could you not!

Re: Tiger Mask
What a weird, but cute, bootleg. Not something I have seen a lot of. Very crude looking but great, even for a boot. I am guessing it was on the 'cheaper' end of toys. I find him incredibly enticing personally, and would love one. Did it end at a high value? I really like the idea of re-using the kewpie bodies like they did; I'd love to see a whole series of friends to go with this guy done in the same way. Just sculpt a new hero head, paint on some different colour pants, and voila! Simple but brilliant process.

Re: Tiger Mask
Not too high, 4300 JPY! I was really on the fence about him, and should have adopted, but I spent too much on another set of Tigers, which will be winging their way across the pond soon This bootleg is quite appealing, and I like how the cape was added. The auction description said it was an old toy shop souvenir. Would've been nice to see if there was a maker's mark.

Re: Tiger Mask
Ha, those are Great! I like your idea of a small line of friends for him too, ultrakaiju.
Thanks for posting those! Definitely added to my lookout list

Re: Tiger Mask
Lol, something to do with anything Tiger Head in vintage equates to "collect multiples of same sculpt!" Nice though, very nice...
