@Vombie Yes and that's remain me that there is a lot of U.S.TOYS Booska missing in my collection ! Is someone can help me to identify the maker of this Chamegon rocket ? :
Speaking of Chamegon...I finally got this bastard! Just two more pieces I can think of, then I'm complete on everything I'm focusing on here. (Unless I break down for that Masataro Chamegon...)
This board is so great sometimes. Two boardies tapped my shoulder this morning about this set coming out. I'll break my "one sculpt" rule (again) to sprinkle these around.
Those are cool! Any info on the size? I'd love to get that pink one...and the orange...and the gold...and...must...resist...
7 cm tall, sold as a set. From nouveau Bullmark. It is indeed a great board! Also, if you do decide that 6 is just too many of any one sculpt to have around the house, you could always just divide the 'extras' amongst the shoulder-tappers!
Polystone Booska by Marusan. Made in China...but I like it so much, it gets a pass. Welcome to the cabinet.
Really happy to found this unpainted USTOYS version, it was the first time I saw it. Sorry for the bad pic but it's hard to take this pink shiny vinyl.
I decided that I need everything in this picture. I don't have a squeaky giant Booska, or the finger puppets. The beams yellow version was always me favorite.
Beams version is great. Was very lucky to grab one when they were first release at retail thanks to a friend.
First painted Marusan Booska 450 version http://www.marusan-toy.com/news/kaigaitsuhan_20170530/PreOrderBusuka1.html I'm very surprised (yet pleased) that this is open to international customers. Most Booska toys are licensed and therefore available in Japan only.
I am really so excited that Marusan is doing direct orders and pre-orders. Ideally, every company should do this, but of course i realise that the logistics of it are simply not feasible/too much for most operations. It gives appreciating fans a chance to support the company, as well as getting the fantastic toys we love. Plus, anything that sticks it/takes money away from needless middlemen and buying services, and gives it right in the hands of the artists and makers involved is a good thing in my books. Unrelated [for this thread], but I was disappointed to read this on the Kikaider order though:
