[Eklas]

Red One, Change Dragon, Takeshi Hongo and Fire from Winspector without the helmet are keshigomu figures made by Bandai. They are pretty small figures (about 1 1/2 inches / 4 cm), made in a rubber/eraser material.

Usually, a keshigomu figure is made in a single color (like M.U.S.CL.E.S or Monster in My Pockets figures).

The Jiban figure is one of the 3 figures that came with the vehicle set. It's twice the size of the other figures (something like 3 inches) and it was made in solid blue plastic.

For the 3 winspector mini-figures, these are the one that were sold with the die-cast Winsquad. They are about 1 1/2 inches / 4 cm and they were made in solid grey plastic.

All these figures figures were primed with brush-on acrylic primer (Primer in can don't react well with rubber figures...), then painted with acrylic paints and sealed with brush-on mat varnish.

I glued some of them on base, because they didn't stand on their own.

I'm pretty happy with the result.

Artbooks, nice!

I really like your miniature work; I think the little Takeshi Hongo is my favorite. The sculpt is really fun and you paintjob does a fantastic job at highlighting the details!

Thanks a lot for your nice comment Kiwami

I also have a SD Kotaro Minami from Black RX and a SD Amazon that I need to finish ! I'll try to create a new thread in the custom section to show all my painted figures

The Ranger sets take me 2 months to watch one series each. Double up with the
Pre Zyus.

Anyone know anything about this Ultraseven piggy bank? Wanted to ask without starting a new thread.
Had them for a couple years now and I'm curious as to how old they may be.
Edit:- Sorry for the weird rotation, don't know how that happened.

Yes! These are made by a company named "Yutaka", they offered a variety of Ultraman heroes and monsters banks in the mid 90's. Most I've seen are dated around 1995-1996.

Mandarake Haul



I had missed out on this Clonetrooper 4-pack twice before, third time is definitely the charm. Can't wait to crack them open

Ark-Zero because you can never have enough Zero-One figures. This may actually be the last figure I pick up from the line, the only one left that I really wanted. I'm glad many of the unique suits from the show got the Figuart treatment

SS Ultraman because you all kept showing me how great the figure is. I was on the fence between OG or Shin, but the former is the more complete figure with all the accessories you would need. Now I'm thinking of doing an OG Toku display down the line ...
