    A pretty common Pachi ultraman Poly that has been painted by the owner .. he is standard size and I think I paid less than 1000Y for an unpainted one many years ago. there is some variation with this sculpt as the seam is down the front not the sides so sometimes he looks like he has a fat nose.

    scobot thank you very much for the information, after all it´s a little expensive to be a regular Pachi figure.
    Best regards!

    That's a great figure. Loving it the more I see it. I'll just have to live with my reissue.

    Vintage Bullmark MechaGodzilla MFV. Loose with only 3 missiles. Decent shape (some typical age spotting). I did not expect it to go this high because of the reissues, but it still holds value. Good to see.

    The Kenrick Batman is interesting, and certainly went for a lot. It almost even looks like a still cruder bootleg of the Kenrick. I think the 'rarity' with this one is that it is a different colour scheme than the common version.

    Those pull toys have always been so great. I often hope to see more of these vintage-era styles resurrected, similar to the way that M1 did the tricycles. I would definitely love to get my hands on some new (and affordable) takes on these guys.

    That ol tin Tetsujin knockout puncher pull toy is incredible. I want to see some action shots, but I can understand why they wouldn't want to try it before a sale. :D

    I really wanted this one, but it went out of my price range. It also had a wonky arm joint. Hope somebody was able to scoop this lil' guy up!

    The colorway in this one it´s amazing, but the mouth seems crushed or it´s my imagination?

    I believe it's a trick of the paint spray and photography. Look at the extra photos under the spoiler tag to see a view from underneath the mouth.

    I thought these were interesting. They are vinyl coin purses. Anyone familiar with these?

    Also, these just ended. Hawaiian Gyango and rare blue mid-sized Red King? Not familiar with this version.

    Re: strange or rare yahoo auctions post here (after theyre o

    I haven't seen those purses, but there are others out there - some licensed and surely plenty otherwise. The early-mid 70s was a golden age of character-themed goods in Japan. For the small number of episodes a lot of these shows ran, they sure cranked out a massive number of products.

    I wouldn't be surprised if, in the minds of Tsubaraya and others, these shows and movies were mostly conceived as vehicles for driving related merchandise. It sure feels that way, and if so, they beat the American cartoon producers of the 1980s (who were doing just that with GI Joe, Transformers, He-Man, etc.) to the punch by a decade!

    I believe I saw a similar one a few months back go for about 50,000 yen.

    Did anyone notice the hidden jewel in this auction?

    [​IMG]

    The auction started off for peanuts, but ended up at 510k :x :x :x (I wonder if the owners realized what a prize they had?!?)
    Just noticed this Takatoku metallic blue "sail fin" on Mark's shelves (Mark's dino looks super duper nice! :shock: )

    Re: strange or rare yahoo auctions post here (after theyre o

    Yep, that is a really lovely one there Gracie. Unfortunately, it has been my experience that even hunting through lots of junked toys and even some with piles of broken pieces, there are few things on YJA (at least speaking in the 'vintage' section of things, that get overlooked. I am sure it does happen, but just that you can rarely find a hidden gem; probably because there are just so many knowledgeable users (not to mention stores/dealers... -cough- Mandarake, -cough- ) who hunt through listings. Sorry you missed out on the dino Grace. Hopefully another one pops up for sale for ya. I would say that was pretty high in the end, so you probably will have another shot.

    That is a takatoku dinosaur. As far as I can tell there were 4 of them in the line up. Picked up the last one I needed on my last trip to japan. Like most Japanese vintage vinyl, they were a lot cheaper years ago when I got my first one.

    Four of them?!? :shock: Could you please post a photo of all four of them in the Dino thread. I'd love to see what the others look like. Thanks for the info, and hats off to you for managing to adopt them all! :shock:
