A few pics of the opening party tonight. Some really cute pieces by Sun-Min and David, lots of exclusive and one of a kind Uglydolls, and a few guest pieces. Not to mention the debut of the Pocket Kaiju Super Puncher figure. Good turnout, good times.
Super Puncher, designed by Sun-Min Kim and David Horvath, is the newest figure in Gargamel's Pocet Kaiju line. This first release is done in clear red vinyl with painted pupils, and includes a custom header card also designed by Sun-Min and David. Super Puncher will make his debut at Uglycon Tokyo, opening October 10 at Stitch Tokyo in Daikanyama.
After being on my most wanted list for about 15 years, I finally found it. The Microman Mecharoid V. Yeah, I've seen it around a few times, often in decent condition and with box, but at prices I refuse to pay. So today sitting on a dark shelf in a toy store I see the Mecharoid V with an unbelievable price tag. And the box, toy, everything is in perfect condition. Crazy.
Taken from the top of the Mori Building in Roppongi. Great view but a little pricey.
Not at bad day at Super Festival 47 today, picked up a few nice things. The Astro Zombies Skullwings are looking really cool, I found some cheap Microman pieces, and the blank Space Troopers promotion figure should be fun to paint. Also the Escaregot figure by Josh turned out pretty cool. Pretty happy with today's loot, just super tired.
A couple of photos from tonight's show. Lots of exclusives, custom figures and art prints by Brian Flynn, and original artwork by Joshua Herbolsheimer. Good crowd and good times. Good night.
The new Gargamel Color Version Tokoji Seijin, to be released at the Super7 Art Show at Thrash Out this weekend. Bright blue vinyl with metallic sprays.
