Secret Base Appreciation & Collections

Wow. This is hands down my favorite sb figure. And for some reason I have none! They look so good together. I think the only one you are missing is the chrome one, right?

There is the dirty chrome URA version as well.

At one time I had 2 of these...

Haven't posted in a while. Current collection.

Dude, you are a maniac. How do you even pull all those together so quickly??

Nice, I always wanted one of those but almost forgot about them because they hardly ever show up. Great bunch!

Got this guy yesterday, he's definitely one of my favorites. Would love to track more down, especially the blue and the green ones.

^Nice score!!

Does anyone know if the Rebel Ink sculpt with the skull and brush/pen crossbones has been retired at this point?

I don't think its retired since they have released at least one or two new colors last year. Maybe there just taking a break with the mold for right now? Last year we got the red pirate skull figure to so its possible its just put up for now.

Such a nice skullwing up there!


Here's a bit of flavors from the last few years

Wow. These are all great. Looking forward to adding a beautiful marbled one to my collection one day!

Love the Skull Bee. I think it's one of the best sculpts out there. I had to really pick and choose from my Skull Bee collection here, since the shelf only fits 16 figures. Most of the unpainted versions are still in the box.



Back row has the Skull Bees in gold. Couldn't fit the Osaka Atmos Bee in there, so he's lurking on the shelf beneath. He should be with the Atmos figures anyway...

Third row back has my personal favorites.

Second row has the riffs on the OG Skull Bee colors. The DBZ Bee is a stand-in for the FC version where the yellow parts are clear yellow.

Front row has the stuff that didn't fit in with the other rows.

Sorry for the terrible quality of my case photos... I realize the HP Bees look horrible. Sorry Hiddy! They're really nice in person.

Awesome, awesome set of Bees. Secret Base fighters are what got me into sofubi four years ago, when I met Amy at Lulubell. My first was the Halloween Shocker Baghead. Skull Bee and Skull Brain are two favorite sculpts, though. I found the Cocobat Bee in Tokyo for $25 and kinda yelped. The DBZ homage and Revolution Bees are probably my favorite!

A handful of my favorite Bees, though the red eyed Revolution is my favorite(probably because it was my first).

The green Cocobat is still my favorite

The green Cocobat is still my favorite

I'd only ever seen one come up once on Mandarake, and it sold super fast. Months and months down the road, I find this one in Tokyo for $25. Needless to say, I giggled.

... and here's the last of my pic dump, I swear!

My favorite Pumpkin Brain:

Stylin and profilin.

Fight figures are one of the many things that initially drew me to collect sofubi and I had dozens of them, spanning a ton of different makers, at one point years ago. While I only have a handful of them these days -- I'm slowly hunting for my favorite production versions of each sculpt. Here's who holds the crown (from the king cake?) for Damage Brain:

"You remind me of the babe.
What babe? Babe with the power.
What power? Power of Voodoo.
Who do? You do.
Do what? Remind me of the Babe!"


Congratulations on getting him back. The babes of the voodoo crew were responsible for bringing me into the fight fig arena.

Was losing him the first time part of your clear vinyl purge, Jason?

Haha, nah, he wasn't part of the Great Clear Purge. I've never actually had any of the Voodoo crew up til now, and I'd really like to grab the Frankenpumpkin at some point as well. I think him and this guy are the standouts from the crowd.

All the SB x S7 (and RxH x Gargamel x S7) Halloween fight figure series releases were a blast!

I had to snag the first SB set after the event but it was pretty exciting waiting for 'the big reveal' every week with the others.

It would be nice to see that tradition return but I'm afraid my nerves would be fried and reactions too slow to chase 'em down these days!
