Re: Show the love for M1-GO!
Haha! Funny article. I actually took my M1 Reptilicus blank apart a couple of years back because a friend had written to ask about just that- he'd heard about the pachinko balls but wanted confirmation. Indeed, they're there in the tail, submerged in resin.

Re: Show the love for M1-GO!
Ha! What a great shot. I had not heard that, but a very great story and even better now that I know it is confirmed. I love hidden toy mysteries. Love that you were able to get the 'evidence' shots; I can already imagine an art series of x-rayed kaiju toys and heroes.
Ah, but that just maintains the mystery of it all. I have to give a props shoutout though for a background appearance of a nice Bandai collection! Time to add some of the classic 80s Ultras in there Rei!
Box art even depicts him being chase by police after the hit and run.

Just. Heh. He's pretty great in his own right. Can't believe I forgot to do a proper head-on shot of him the other day.
