Christmas Arrives Early

A local friend and member of my anime fan club that folded ten years ago surprised me this week when he donated a chunk of his collection to me. He finally decided that he wanted to pare down his collection to just vinyl Godzilla monster figures, so he passed along a selection of books, toys, model kits, and production cels to me and another close friend/former club member.

Most of the spacecraft and mecha model kits went to the “other guy,” but I ended up with the “gal” kits.

Wow! A resin set of KO Seiki Beast Sanjushi heroes! (Bottom right corner)

Some of the garage kits appear to be bootlegs and recasts. Considering how long ago these were purchased, I lay no blame.

I was very thrilled to add this Queen Emeraldas figure set to my collection.

And this vintage Uchuu Senkan Yamato LCD game is definitely one of the neatest, most unusual anime items to come into my collection recently.

I’ll share scans of the production cells tomorrow.
