    The Thrash Man sold out too. The big ZAG is beautiful. Just wish I had the money to buy a custom, I gave my ticket to someone else in line but he was happy so shouldn't be bummed, he's a good guy and really loves Gargamel.

    Ok, I'm hooked and still a Fresh Meat -- especially with Gargamel figures. I only have a Super Puncher for now ;) . Can someone please tell me who made the Guiro Seijuu? Is it Bear Model? Has a similar feel to Bear Model figures. Love the three-some of the Leafman, Koji, and Guiro Seijuu combo! Thanks for sharing that photo! Any info on Guiro Seijuu, would be very much appreciated!

    Guiro Seijin was made by Bullmark and one of the toys only made with flesh vinyl, so you wont find it cheap. These used to be $1000 or more but I havent seen one recently.

    Future_Man, the book in question, is by Yuji Nishimura. It's a soft-cover, 82-page book, size is 11.75x8.25, published in Japan in 1996. The book contains great pictures of many Bullmark vintage toys, often including shots of figures that comprise a series. There are a few pages of toy history as well. Unfortunately (for me :oops: ), the entire text is in Japanese, but it's still a great photo reference. Mark K sent me a link to the book on YJA, in hopes of continuing my education in vintage toys :)

    Some day I will go on that trip! Not this year though. I heard that Brian gives piggy back rides while making Tan Tan sounds to SSSS members on the whole tour! :D
