    anyone else a fan of this character? i've yet to read the manga (which has now been translated in to english) and there was a cartoon made in the 70s from what i can gather from a clip of opening title on youtube.

    Nice shot. I especially like the box art. The big doll some company did with Mandarake is great.

    hi moog, yes the doll is made by Fewture/Art Storm and is super nice! You should be able to pick one up on YJA.
    and yes, will definitely check out the translated manga when $$ permits!

    Doesn't Mori have a huge cat-eyed boy statue at the shop??

    Anyway the books are pretty quick read and easily accessible. I love the cover designs.

    Produced by Mandarake. Although not vintage, I picked this up at the Mandarake vintage store at Nakano Broadway, came away for 8000 yen if I remember well.

    Hey Space, he must be around 12", probably a little taller. Never seen the one with fabric clothes but would love to!

    Tbh the box looks exactly the same so I need to check how tall mine is, 40cm sounds a bit too much but I'll double check as soon as I get back home.
