The "What you just got in the Mail" Thread

thanks robert!

 

congrats on the awesome SDCC WTF sleeping killer. a rare beauty.

 

Gah!! Where in the bloody hell did you find that killer?!

Super congrats!

 

nope, thats a white-washed blanka! haha. theres also a white balrog, white dhalsim, and a skinny e honda. all of the toys are on flesh vinyl, makes them even stranger.

 

thanks and thanks. killer just popped up on the sales thread and i had fortunate timing...

my first wtf killer. hopefully not my last.

 

Marusan Godzilla #48

A couple of months back Marusan released 60 versions of Godzilla. I believe they were all one-offs and sold by lottery. I'm not sure what the reason for the event was. If anyone can shed any light regarding it I'd be most grateful. I've made up a check list showing all 60 colourways. As you can see, stamped on the foot it's marked "60 ver".

 

Thats for the goji 60th anniversary event, hence 60 one offs

 

Thanks for sharing spacemonkey66 and congrats you scored a beautiful one!
How do you did it to take one of those beauties?

 

Congrats Spacemonkey66. That's a fantastic piece.

It's from the Marusan Gangu Matsuri (Marusan Toy Festival) event held at Hasegawa Gallery in Tokyo on June 28 & 29, 2014. There were also special guest at the event. Here is the schedule of guest.

^^ Thanks for the extra info
It is super nice! So many amazing colorways in this line up. My agent in Japan entered me in to the lottery and I guess luck was on my side because it's the one I wanted the most! Also, it's my very first version of this classic sculpt, I never owned one up until now.

 

Really nice vintage look!

 

Boy, if you had to choose... Good thing (I'm assuming) they pulled one for you.

 

Congratulations space monkey !

 

Damn those Gojis are beautiful. Congrats and thanks for posting the pic/checklist, cant stop staring at all the versions! I'd take any version, but the first one three rows down (light green) I would kill for!

 

Lucky lucky man indeed. I only had a Hermit long ago, and that was a super lucky find. The SARS one doesn't have count but I had that one too. I think the Mocca one was my favorite one. Too bad I have never been able to locate one..

 

Here's what I got in the mail today.

Congrats It's a beautiful piece!
I feel envy jajaja.
It's the Marmit or the Medicom new release?

Best regards!

 

Crappy booska collection update shot coming.

 

It is the Medicom release. I actually bought it off of Toy Art Gallery for the Japanese price and didn't have to pay shipping from Japan. I lucked out and got the last one they had. It is pretty big at 11 inches tall.

 

I think you meant to say "Awesome booska collection update shot coming"

Love the pink Kanegon and Booska racers!!!
