These are one of those things I am definitely regretting not picking more up of. In hindsight, and with a bit more time, I could have easily added several more and for very reasonable prices. Anyways, here are a few I have snagged. Time to shoot that music video.
YESSSS! Let's link up on this! I will shoot the video and I nominate IVth(Walt) as master editor in the final project! I'm ready as well! http://twitpic.com/7p354x
Every time I open this thread I think to myself, MAN I really need some of this sofubi swag!! Does anyone know if there was every a gamera or goji pendent made?
Here are some photos of them from Mark K's great article in S7 Gamera Crew Goji (sorry for the terrible photo of a good photo)
I should 'prolly already know this, but... Is the magazine hosted digitally anywhere, or available for purchase as pfd files? I'm guessing since you had to take a photo of the photo the answer is no, but I'd be happy to learn otherwise!
Not that I know of. If it interests you I have a flickr set of photos from some of the old S7 issues. Its not complete and some are total shit (mine that is) but it better then nothing I guess. http://www.flickr.com/photos/xjaybirdx/sets/72157628388277429/
Thanks, that's a fine place to start. I should have been subscribed to your stream already considering how much great candy you've got on your shelves!
A couple of additions since the article. Still missing Viras - a very rare toy. It's been 2-3 years since I have seen one for sale.
Scobot- really cool stuff. I love the Zone Fighter one, you dont see that one too much. Thanks for posting these. I actually just bought an akai ranger pendant a couple minutes ago, score! Mark- nice updated Gamera shot, that Gyaos is great.
Ya ever get this feeling that a million years from now, when alien archaeologists are uncovering the ruins of human civilization, they're gonna thing we worshiped these???
A few more since the article: TekkaMan and Pegas are by Nakajima. Tetsuan Atom is by Patora. The Snoopy is an unmarked rubber squeaker. I am blanking on the name of the guy in the vest...something like large Franz??? He has the production company name but no manufacturer. Possibly Bullmark as they did other sofubi of this character.
