Crappy old toys of silly men in ugly suits

Killer! I love the Bibyun guy in particular. Nice assembly. Something about tokusatsu characters rendered in metal that I always found to be appealing. I think it just seems like the "wrong" medium somehow.

So can you do another group in a different color?

'Sigs' are for suckas!

KILLER!!!! is right!

I particularly LUV the Leo man! It sucks that the Bibyun has those ankle scratches. All of those Bibyun toys pretty much have them, due to that lame ass (I think they're cool) stands that they come with. The Vashan is typically far worse though.. Anyway, nice pic man!

Hah -I wish! With one exception, all the vintage Tokusatsu gokins I own are decked out in red. I just noticed that myself when setting up this picture.



I need a furry Megaloman.

Gorgeous photo. That would make a great poster-size print. (OT- enjoyed 'Feelers')

Well, I dunno 'bout poster size but . . .

I'm fucking floored. You've managed to make some stiff ass gokin look totally freaky real...

This is stunning.

Glad you like it!

What's so funny is that, years back, when I first began contemplating the toys I was interested in getting while involved in this hobby, these toys weren't just off my radar, they were purposefully obscured with a heavy, black gobo.

I mean, just look at them: They look like watercolor paintings of piñatas. Yeeeaaccchhhhhhh!

Of course, my attitude has radically changed . . .
