Amazing haul Mark! You sure came back with some gems there. I am glad you had some success on the trip, I look forward to hearing all about it; I am sure the two of you amassed quite a few stories (speaking from my own experience). There really isn't anything like actually being there, and doing the toy circuits on top of all that. Happy that you managed to find Kobe Toy! My personal fav is that excellent pachi guy you picked up; as if someone in monster-making land made a perfect mix of a Nitto Gamera and crazy dinosaur. Really cool colours too. Excellent toys Mark, you've got great taste. :)

Amazing Jordan, just superb!! :D Such a wonderful toy. I have longed for a missile firer for many years now. Great find, and I agree on the condition, he looks just spectacular - barely played with at all. Fresh paint coverage as the day he broke forth for mechanical vengeance from his baggie, and such a nice bright blue on his accents. Love it, congrats man.

Jordan I meant to comment on that missle firing Mecha- Goji the other day. All I can say now is wow- holy fucking hell man that is one sweet score, congratulations! Thing looks straight out of the box- did it come with a box? So jealous!

No box came with him, one of the tabs from the missile firing device on his back has snapped off. I have the tab, but I'm just happy the figure displays great.

Superb toy! Colour me very green indeed. I look forward to seeing some more full on photos of him. :)

Congrats it´s a great piece and one of my favorites Gojis!
For the light green of the face I suppose that's the one with the blue fins in the back.
Best regards!

A filthy, broken-ass Nikko Eleking pendant that I found in a box that's been sealed since '02:

Zero recollection of how it came into my life. Welcome back!

Nice one David! What a great little treasure to unearth after all these years. Looks awfully familiar to me too, broken pendants unite! :)

Thank you all for the warm welcome. I will post some additional photos in the "big ol' bullmark goji" thread that I found in this section of the board. ;)

Wowsers. Such a stunner. That is one vintage toy I have always greatly coveted; some day maybe. So glad you were able to snag him, and just thrilled you have shared him with us here. I love the giant Bullmark, the colour scheme, the sculpt, his expression - just so much there to appreciate. And you got the Tokyo Tower with him also, that is an extra bonus. A classic toy. Well-earned congratulations, my good man.

Ultrakaiju thank you very much for your words.
There are other big size poly Dinosaurs which also attracts my attention. I hope to have the chance to score one those...

This came in the other day. Large transparent with tinsel Space Sheriff Gavan. Unfortunately it's hard to get good pictures of the figure while it's in the bubble on the card.

Beautiful dinos!
Choon, can you please tell me what's actually inside the Sheriff? Tinsel and wires?

Re: Vintage Mail Day
