    I'll have some more cool Marmit photos eventually. But, for now, I'll just leave this here.

    That guy. Can you imagine him trying to sit down to have his morning coffee? For one, it's a tricky business picking up a mug without dropping it when you just have two spikes for fingers. Succeeding at that, you absent mindedly cross your legs and slice a big gash in the back of your knee. #monsterwoes #Ijustwantedcoffee

    Well, hero or villain, and dangerous apendeges aside: SkyDeviler has perhaps one of the best silhouettes out there. Makes me think of Earwig pincers.

    Stumbled across this one during an unrelated search. I always seem attracted to Ultraman Ace villains... this one is no exception. Somehow it slipped under my radar before today. Photos courtesy of Medicom Toy.

    Thanks! I'm pretty sure they're raffle / ring toss prizes?
    There was a ticket in one bag, that the google translate app translates as 'Non product' or 'not for sale'...

    Hard to know when I will have time to get risers and lighting set up, but wanted to share a progress pic of operation Parababy 2021. I have been very fortunate over the last few months to pursue a long term dream of collecting these guys. I'm not sure what defines a "grail" but "Parababies" has been mine for a long time. I just wish they were still selling for 2010 prices! ;) Plan to share some better pix in the future when I get the right setup.

    @blakewest Super impressive! I spot some I haven't seen before, every shelf. This is gonna shine even more so, once you get the risers in there (I really want to see that Bandel lineup in the back!).

    All this PB talk reminded me, I don't think I ever shared any photos of my PB Bakura collection here...

    I've never really felt the want to get actual Godzilla vinyl (outside of a couple of X-Plus), but I couldn't get this one out of my head. I feel like it's the perfect totem of the 1955 movie. Snow, ice, cold, a miserable Godzilla. Blue eyes! The (partial?) translucent casting is wild.

    The color schemes are so smart on this crew. This figure and this collection are great. (I'm also a fan of plant/root backdrops!)

    I always thought Mammoth Flower was kind of dumb, until I watched the episode of Ultra Q. It's a frickin vampire!

    I have the other two King Joes, but I need the other parababy U-Toms in my life!

    Ragon coin bank landed this week. I didn't notice before, but she's holding a recently hatched baby Ragon. Cute!

    The coin banks and candy cases are some of my favorites. No articulation, but great static sculpts that can be enjoyed as display pieces or simple toys. Personally, I really like the Semi Ningen coin bank where he is sitting cross-legged and holding the remote.

    Ragon bank is the absolute bees' knees. That faint silver spray! Congratulations, just beautiful.

    Really hit the jackpot this month. Been lookng for a Lockerman for a long time, plus the U-Toms. The Ultraseven set is cool too, Most of the trans vinyl parababies are unpainted, and I think that you don't see a lot of trans orange toys period.
