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

The toyz in the hood are always hard.

Takatoku “Hobic” series Mekabuton and Tentoki. Here’s a group shot for size comparison: they’re double the size of the translucent plastic versions and absolutely dwarf the Z-Gokin diecast (which I won at Morphy’s!)

The boxes are totally stunning as well. The aesthetic is more “Hanna-Barbera” than “anime.”

Another closet find: an oldie but goodie but floppy. Compare to a standard Popy Chogokin here.

I’m trying to catalog everything I own, which means taking stuff off of shelves and out of closets and painstakingly entering the data into an Excel file. Wish me luck. Here’s some of the first I busted out: Bullmark “Meka Machine” series toys. Plus a Big Blazer.
