Historic moment…

Filed under: Co. BULLMARK,Co. GRIP,Stephan Halder,Stoopid,Toy Love,Toy News — chogoman @ 3:07 pm

…for me!
I don’t know if this is something for the TBDX BROG?
Well if not…delete it.

I got my first parcel full of robots from Japan.
Ok, it’s not my first parcel with robots from Japan,
but  the first parcel with robots I won on Yahoo Japan.

Yes, I was a Yahoo Japan virgin till today. But now I’m a real man!

Its a bit like x-mas today.

Do you rememer your “first” time getting a parcel from japan?

Sorry that I spam you with that shit.
But it’s so cool getting a big parcel full of robots  ;-)

Made by Bullmark, this Ultraman Leo trike has a disarming and disturbing power of cute that would easily bitchslap Hello Kitty off her pedestal.

The nose makes the price

Filed under: Co. NAKAJIMA,Stephan Halder,Toy Love,Toy News — chogoman @ 3:17 pm

After Eriks fantastic Jumbo Pegas.
Here’s the Nakajima Pegas ST* version.
The robot with the ultra fragile nose.

* I’m not 100% sure about his correct name . Is it a ST or DX version.

Rock’n’Ramble

Filed under: Co. TAKEMI,Stephan Halder,Toy Love,Toy News — chogoman @ 3:56 pm

1978 Takemi Ramble Giant. You love his style or hate it.

The anachronistic tin-robot-look of his body is very special.
I like him.

Chogokins invade Germany

Filed under: Co. POPY,Co. TAKATOKU,Stephan Halder,Toy Love,Toy News — chogoman @ 10:13 am

When you see this pile of boxes, what do you think?
Well, boxes with big white stickers.
But THIS was the vain attempt to invade germany with chogokins
in the early 70ties.

Popy, Takatoku etc boxes where “localized” with simple stickers.


There are Ark, early Bandai boxes that are much better “localized” for the
german market. After the big success of Captain Future in the early 80ties
in germany Popy released german boxed versions of their CF toys.

Sorry Matt, no spectacular german box design ;-)

Shogun Warriors: GUILTY!

Filed under: Co. POPY,Stephan Halder,Toy Love,Toy News — chogoman @ 5:49 am

Mattel’s Shoguns are guilty. They transform me
into an addicted robot collector. All my childhood
memories flashed back, when I found that boxed
Shogun Warriors Dragun in the early 90ties.

I must have them all!
Well, after many years I still didn’t reach that goal…

…but this Daimos 2in1 is another important step forward for me.
Got him last week from france.

Parlez vous francais Monsieur Daimos?

スーパーロボット・マッハバロン Mach Baron Talker

Filed under: Toy News — Josh Fraser @ 11:58 pm

Something special arrived in the mail last week.

Mach Baron holds a special place in my robot psyche. This Masudaya talker represents the classic primitive steampunk qualities that I love about the design and distills them into a toy, that to me is one of the most beautiful and elegant in it’s simplicity.
Feel the funk personified.
