The "What you just got in the Mail" Thread

I like kitties

 

Super thrilled to have this in my collection.

 

CometDebris Lucky Bag arrived!

 

Oh hell yeah! You got both new guys. Fingers crossed for mine.

 

I think i found almost all the gachamecha i was after. I needed a "color" version of the Gachroid. The green version of the Gachroid i haven't seen pop up in years. I didn't think i'd find this release before i found that one though. Still looking for the custom Gachadokuro i sold to @animator years ago (cough!)
A tiny bit little tacky, but in excellent shape for its age.

 

I got those 2 amazing pieces this week

• Mazinger Z by Winson Ma / Unbox Industries
• Monkeyman - Turbo > ICHIBANBOSHI TOY X RX-NEMESIS

 

I updated my want list, and a member DM'd me and I purchased this, all in less than a day. I still can't believe it. Thank you!
GK-11 from DCON 2016.

 

Beautiful Deathra, @nicholasfung! And these photos are wonderful! I gifted someone a Deathra one off from SDCC 2014 and got to see that on the shelf for seven years. Amazing toy. You can never go wrong with clear vinyl and guts!

 

Thank you dude!
I like to think I’m still newish to the boards, so I thought it was wishful thinking to get a non-blank Deathra. Let alone a 1-off, but with CLEAR AND GID?! Blessing and curse to hold off on Gargamel for all these years, I feel like I missed a lot, but I would’ve spent so much over the years, lol.

 

@nicholasfung You’re comin’ up on seven years on the boards. That’s a pretty solid amount of time to be contributing. But you’re also not at all new to collecting and you’ve got a great attitude. You came up ‘cause another collector knows the score and was happy to help someone solid. And I think your reveling in the addition of the Deathra is awesome, and wish more would celebrate their comeuppances!

 

That’s a really solid perspective. Thank you for your kindness online and in person!

 

Oh my, these are so cool! Had no idea there was even a NGE x Mcdonalds collab

 

Not quite in the mail, but some stowaways from my recent trip to Tokyo.

 

Nice bag pick up and love the animation :p. Koji san still putting out awesome little toys. Sweet pic too! It almost suggests a double pour clear with a lemon inner and really has me wishing to see something like this.

 

After many years...the grey custom tengallon made it back to me. i forgot all about the pink release here. good mail day

 

eggshell

 

The box came on my way out the door to work, and I had to open right when I got there.

KAIBERG!



The snail/sloth/squawk mixture just really pulled me in when I first came across this in the Tondemo Kaiju Encyclopedia (トンデモ怪獣大全). I know it's just a re-issue of the '70s toy. But, was shocked to learn that it's still possibly from way back in 1998?!!?! That was the only mention of a a reissue I could find on Marusan's insta.

And that does feel right based on how it feels in-hand. Like, the paint and vinyl is very different than what Marusan is doing nowadays. I see some fine bubbles in the vinyl, and the paint texture seems kinda course. Not complaints, just curious.

 

Wackadoodle and very cute.

 

Yeah, the first batch of Marusan Original Kaiju reissues were released around 1998, but the reissues of Kaibaark, Dargle, BONDORAA, and I think one or two others came out a couple of years afterwards. There were not as many of them made, too. Great score!

 

Cheers it's so nice seeing real collectors on the board still..

 

Ska-Raaawwnnnk
I'd love to see some old Marumons battle it out a little. They all look like they'd have some wild special moves. Maybe Kaminaga would let us do a comic

"Dargle" has me losing my mind ₍⁽ ⫐

Ooooh! Are you spelling it "Kaibaark" or is that a different monster? Searching that spelling somehow lead me to this (a nice list I wish I had seen earlier), which has it spelled with a third variation "Kaibaak" ¯\_( :/ )_/¯

I do love Dargle, Gambria, and Galapagos too. The further away from any recognizable ultra-kaiju, the better (to me, at least).
Of course, Seabull, Bamer, and Ebirieon are perhaps some of the most creative, which explains why their "classic" sculpts keep getting new releases and even the TDRS re-sculpts. Great colorway of all those coming up at Siccaluna Fest.

And this is the sole post I got all my info on Kaibaark from:
