    Picked up this vintage V3 pop up book recently and thought I would share. Although not a vinyl toy I hope that can be forgiven in light of its awesomeness. Anyone else have any of these books?

    "forgiven in light of its awesomeness"

    While I feel the plea was unnecessary, I have to say this phrase made my day. Thanks

    What a cool V3 book; I didn't see Lensari, my favorite villain. Makes Hashemi Jaguar look like a methhead! Thanks for another great post, man!

    Cheers

    ^^ Well im glad I could make someones day with my retarded phrases and a picture of a jellyfish monster with a hammer for an arm. Thats all there is unfortunately. The book is short on quantity but long on quality.

    I don't know why but to me it seems like the vintage kamen rider brand had the best artists working for them. This book rules, I really like the scene in the lab. I need to track one of these down!

    These pop-up books are great. I had posted some kaiju ones a while ago (don't recall if it was here or on another board). Truly some great artwork. Lucky kids.

    Holy smokes! Those monster illustrations are AMAZING! To me, there's nothing better than 70's Japanese monster paintings. Awesome find!

    Not as awesome as your Kamen Rider V3 book, but still pretty damn cool... BAROM1 pop-up book from 1972 published by BANSO (bought this a few years ago, it was brand new and still shrink-wrapped, so I opened it of course!)
