Because it's Max Toy Co week in a certain group on Facebook I found this photo I made a few years ago on a HD. Three brothers, same mother and probably a different father each.
Still in need of the standard size Hedorah... drop me a line if you have one to move on, vintage preferred.
You all have the forum set up to where members can’t delete their public posts anymore? I just went to delete an erroneous duplicate post in this thread but can’t. I hope this is just something that’s happening while the board is being sorted, and not further draconian measures. If it’s the latter, you won’t see me posting much around these parts anymore. Maybe the intention is to kill the board off. If so, keep up the good work.
I've not gone after the more recent, different design Star Case releases – happy with these! Clam shell dish reminds of Vader's meditation chamber!
Excluding a few customs from local artist/friends, I am currently 75 Dogs deep, with another AES on hold for a later date.
Its weird, what i like to think of as the 'two-headed winged pineapple dragon' is a lot smaller than i initially thought (from your previous photos). I just assumed it was one of the bigger Miura figures. Great collection by the way, i really like the look of them. They kind of remind me of Bear Model a little bit, i think its the robustness and the wonderful textures
I reallllly want to make some Archer-esque phrasing crack about 'Dogs deep' , but I can't because a) that collection is absolutely insane, b) your dedication to a single figure makes mine look like the weakest of sauces when I thought it was serious obsessive A-game, and c) the huge respect for said dedication. TLDR: Dammmmmn, son!
Hi. Still getting the feel of the search function but I don’t think I’ve seen this topic before??? I love seeing people’s collecting focus. Specifically characters. I see a lot of pics of certain makers displayed together but not so much single characters. What makes a focus? Three or more of a single character? I’ve got more Ultraman than anything else. While I’m waiting on some stuff to show up from the frozen Japanese postal system i’ll Post some other pics of characters I like.
I don’t have full collection shots, as it’d be difficult and very time consuming to set them up, but I have 76 Obake Dogs by Secret Base and 56 Cinema Monsters by Secretoy. If I had to choose a number that begins a focus I’d have to say 10, with the expressed intention to continue growing that number. The Ultra Man, Kanegon and Garamon bunches look great!
@Temporal Marauder It’s absolutely my personal number calling, otherwise I’d just feel like I have a handful of a character, or a favorite I happen to have a bunch of. I guess my eyes are inherently attracted to a larger opening number of a single figure/character, which then becomes a literal focus for me.
Heya, @Temporal Marauder We've been popping such excellent gangs as yours in the appropriately named Family Thread for nigh on 11 years! No shame in your not having dug it up yet. I was going to suggest that you repost your pretties over there, but then I remembered that... POOF! I can just pilot your and Robert's chat right on over by rubbing this magic nubbin I keep by my loins.
