KM-01 First Godzilla and Yellow Microman Action Figure Set
If you are a child of the 70s, then you probably remember the Micronauts line of toys and comic books.
Well in Japan they are called Microman, and they have been a popular line of action figures since 1974.
In 2004, to mark the 50th anniversary of Godzilla, the Japanese toy company, Takara, who manufactures the Microman line, added "the king of monsters" to their catalog.
Today, these figures are hard to find, but I have located a couple of the 1954 Godzilla with yellow Microman figures through Amazon.
Get em while they are hot!
I bet Godzilla would teach old Baron Karza a thing or two, huh.
4 1/4" Gamera SF Movie Selection Trading Figure (One Random Figure)
What is Gamera doing in a Godzilla toy post?
Well, Japan's titanic turtle has been in the news a lot lately, thanks to the "Gamera, The Giant Monster" DVD release from Shout! Factory, so we thought that we would share the love.
This is 4 1/2 inches of pure tortoise fury!
These are boxed trading figures from Japan, and there are four different figures in the set.
They are randomly boxed and any figure could be inside, so it's kinda like gambling, but each of these highly detailed Gamera figures is worth the risk.
