"cute " vinyls

Ah, i'm not familiar with the Casshan anime - i remember the live action flick being released but i did'nt see it.
She's great. I see @scobot has a super-shiny version in his collection.

 

Phone charm. No idea where the character is from . . . .

 

He's from Dokonjo-Gaeru

 

Thanks!

More charms . . .

 

'Berries' made in 1970.

The only plastic on a table full of china figurines. Almost definitely sold in card shops where they hawked
Valentine's or Mother's Day knick-knacks . . . . 50p at a boot-sale.

 

Sealtest mascot Mr. Cool.

 

Oh I love that Fugu anatomical ! would go mighty fine with my little gang

 

I have female versions of the same-They are weird little cheap vinyls. I've seen them in other colors too (Red/yellow) Mine are pink and lavender. Never saw a boy.

 

Cool, must be from the same series. I really like 'em, thanks for posting yours.

Yeah, those are really cool. Stylish and i like the painted eyes. The only info i found on the boy is that he's from 'Mizumori Ado Workshop'.
I never found out very much about the line.

I also have a 'Sassy' or 'Sun Bunny' doll - - - again, not much info on them.


And this one. Do you know the name of this type of doll? I never found out.

 

Vintage Ledraplastic Fawn from Italy
8' high / Squeaker still works

The seller tutted at me because i asked how much they wanted for it, but they had taped the price
to the base of the figure which i did'nt see. £1.50 which is ruddy ridiculous, but of course, i wasn't
complaining . . . .

 

Nohohon Zoku in a different style . . . slightly later version made in 2005.
Solar Nodders have caught-on again here in the UK recently, there are lots of mini ones around.
They are very cheap looking and none of them are as cool as these Tomy versions . . .

50p at a boot-sale.


2002 versions:

 

Picked these up from the post office yesterday. Dune Panda Kopanda. There is a small magnet in both. But it isn't a fixed magnet. It rolls around in both so it's a game trying to get both to connect. Sorry I did not remove them from the bags, but you guys should know by now i'm lazy when it comes to removing toys from bags or taking pictures.

 

Those are pretty nice, they're not vintage, though. We need a non-vintage cute thread!

 

Thanks David. They were advertise by DUNE for release in March 2016. But I didn't start to see them for sale until mid summer.

 

I assume that is the same DUNE that did the 'Bug Boy' and other Hideshi Hino figures?

Love those Panda's and that is a nice idea to have rolling magnets rather than fixed.
They look awesome quality. I've never seen 'Panda, Go Panda!' but i know there is a Miyazaki connection.
Is it worth tracking down?

 

I know of DUNE, but I don't follow them so I am not completely sure what they have released other than a few stuff like Astroboy, TMNT, and Street Fighter. The Panda Kopanda are a precursor to Miyazaki famous creation Totoro. The Panda Kopanda played as shorts before the main feature usually a Godzilla or Ultraman film during the Toho Champion Film Festivals in the 70's.

I think it is worth tracking if you are fan of Miyazaki and the show.

This is DUNE site.

Another favorite in my collection. Denboku Mimi-chan and Benelic Papa Panda.

 

Vintage Donald bottle. No idea how old he is, maybe 60's or 70's. The seller had a lot of very nice vintage toys
that she wanted waaay too much for . . . . but this handsome chap, she was happy to sell for 50p.

Blow-mold body with soft vinyl head.

 

Yeah, now you mention it the trousers do look weird on him . . . i did'nt notice that.

Maybe the body was re-used for multiple characters and they just made a different head each time.

 

That's a thermos (or flask as was the concern) actually. It's from Disney's failed "famous inebriated authors of the twentieth century" lunchbox series. This is Donald as Ernest Hemingway. I'm not positive on how many character interpretations were actually released, but the only other ones that I know of are Goofy as Hunter S. Thompson and Micky as Jack Kerouac. OH, and I hear the Pooh bear Charles Bukowski was especially rough looking...

I lie, but that would have been amazing.


Neat find tho, @The Moog.

 

Haha, that would of been cool.

Disney HST and Buke . . . imagine!

 

These have some age on 'em. They have much larger 'hoops' than modern key-rings, and they were constructed without the use of glue.
The cat is a Victorian 'Lamplighter' if I'm not mistaken. The geezer in the hat is either a Fox or a Wolf . . . . i cant decide. Possibly from
a nursery rhyme?

 

^^ Love these!
Here's my most recent gang again, after a well-deserved soapy hot water bath
