    Is there an earlier version of Yamaton other than the one that came out in the last year or so? The Yamanaya version is really sick--but I found out about him on this board after he was sold out and now I'm on a hunt to find out more, maybe try to get one (one of the cool things about this board is the depth on Japanese vinyl!).

    -I did search and read a few posts.

    Do you mean another Yamanaya version or another version entirely? Yamanaya has done the only toy of that guy, as far as I know.

    There were two Yamanaya releases- gunmetal and green.

    Either--it would be cool if there was even a lesser quality version, like how for many Ultraman kaiju there are the Bandai figs that are smaller/cheaper (though
    often probably made of lesser vinyl). Thanks for the info.

    There's another new, blue and grey one. I think that's my favorite of the bunch.

    Christ on a bike with a sidecar, now I want both versions. The blue is really nice. I was just thinking a black vinyl based version would be nice with light gold sprays on the deck.
