Kinkeshi Full Action Special

Is anyone else enjoying these? I got a whole set of series #2 during an import site's free shipping promo period just out of curiosity. These things are pretty neat, I just wish the head/neck/torso peg wasn't so easy to dislocate. Out of all of series 2, I think Kinnikuman Great is my favorite.

Actual difference between 29th anniversary and reissue

Hi guys I'm collecting all the original 418 sculpts, not the actual first release since I'm more interested in the og sculpts rather than the og set.

Basically all my collection for now is only reissue(I think it's the late 90s reissue with the update firmer and glossier rubber , confirm me or correct me if i'm wrong), they have the trademark with the circled P on the back. I found a lot with many kinkeshi that I'm missing but they are the 29th anniversary since they have the "B china" on the back. Are they different than the reissued ones with the circled P on the back? Do they have another type of rubber? Do they fit in?

Thanks everyone.

SH Figuarts Revival!

Looks like we're back guys!

Kinnikuman Perfect Choujin Arc

The Kinnikuman Perfect Choujin Arc is going to be on Netflix on July 7! 

Maybe they will start making more kinkeshi from the Anime! I hope they make more SH Figuarts too! Or Medios Super Action Statues! Maybe even Mini Revoltechs!

Comichara

Most of us are familiar with the Kinnikuman Comichara set that is labeled "Volume 5"

Until recently this was the only Comichara set with a Kinnikuman theme of which I was aware.

Then a few weeks ago I stumbled upon volumes 2 and 4, still sealed in the original plastic:

As you can see, Volume 4 is similar to Vol 5 inasmuch as they have an assortment of figures paired with a vehicle and launcher. Even the other non-Kinniku Comichara sets I have seen, Ultraman(click link for pics) and Godzilla respectively, have this same configuration with identical vehicles.

Interestingly, Volume 2 has a different accessory altogether, a platform to launch figures into the air. I have not opened the sealed packages, and likely never will, but cannot help but wonder if there are any other differences between the internal packaging of the Kin sets. The opened Vol5 has essentially the same text and instructions as the UM and Godzilla sets I have, and all three come with a yellow car despite the blue one featured on the back, but who knows with these?

It also make me wonder what other Comichara sets are out there.

Tatakae Ramenman manga

Does anyone still have the raw manga scans for Ramenman that were floating around like fifteen years ago?

Looking for a picture of the blue FOX BOX Promotional VHS Tape

Hi everyone. Does anyone still have their copy of the 4kids Fox Box Toys R Us promo VHS tape that came with a box of ultimate muscle and other show goodies from 2002? I can't find a picture at all of the blue one online. I'm not looking for the red one but a blue one and if someone can get me a screenshot of the inside of the Ultraman Tiga summary of the box, Id appreciate that too.

Looking for a picture of the blue FOX BOX Promotional VHS Tape. Can you all please help?

Happy Fenian Rising Day!

Except this Ramenman was late to the party!

Sláinte!
