toyboxdx toy blog brog: is graceful art of daily expressing japanese toy  

I mean, c’mon guys, what can you really say about this… OBSESSED!!!

So.. You peep into the viewfinder and see florescent versions of the 6 GOD robots! Amazing. That’s it.. Like I said, OBSESSED!! Next thing I know my wife will be asking me what the hell is up with my God Mars jammies. I mean, what the hell is wrong with that??? Guys??? Anyone? Huh…

18 inches of talking sofubi. LIke every other Ozen talk box, it’s NOT WORKING….. See the last pic in the brog. “Product of Popy Japan”. Yep…

Blow me!

Spiderman and a giant japanese robot, what a cool combination.
The dream came true in the late 70ties when Toei produced a TV series
based on Marvel’s popular character.

Popy made lots of cool toys related to this series. Chogokins, plasic toys, Dolls, sofubis etc.

One of these toys is this Spider-Man & Leoparodon Set.
I bought it in the early 90ties in germany from a guy with a giant
Spiderman collection. This guy, Peter Bergner, is a real “toy-collecting-legend”
here in germany. I remember that I made a custom Popy box, for a Spidey figure
for him…holy shit, long time ago.

Spidey & Leoparodon are  made complete out of plastic.
Cheap toys, but they look great in the nice designed blister box.

Here are a few more detail shots of the accessories and the box art.

More fotos as usual in the BBS.

The postcard that came with the set is real funky.
Spider-Man on the fotos looks a bit…hmmm…strange…
maaan, his  lower  legs…a bit short?

OK. So here is one of the BEST early “BANDAI” standard sized removable mask Bandai Kamen Rider sofubi. 10 inches tall and sporting child bearing hips, this piece is sick!

More pics to come. A PACKED house at Super 7 San Francisco tonight!
