Re: Any information on this toy?
There also appears to be an Ultraseven, though I cannot seem to find a picture.

Anyway, since he seems obscure, he might be rare, so I say give him a try, and if you don't like it, re-sell him. I'd take him off your hands.

Re: Any information on this toy?
I saw this online not too long ago and referenced it on another post somewhere but didn't think anyone knew about it. I have no clue what it's like but I was thinking the same thing about it as an alternative.

What are these? (Help Identify Random Godzilla)
I've accumulated a few "mystery" kaiju items I'm hoping you guys might have some info on.
Most of these I've had since I was a kid and have recently rediscovered. I've failed to find any brandings on any of them.
Note MonsterArt box for scale. Feel free to ask any questions.

Thanks

Re: What are these? (Help Identify Random Godzilla)
I had one of those bootleg Red kings back around 1995. Arcade type places 9Discovery Zone, Chuck-e-cheese and the like) in malls and strip centers had a bunch of them in the mid 90s that you got by trading in tickets.

Re: What are these? (Help Identify Random Godzilla)
Man I dig that orange keychain one. I actually remember seeing one in those I Spy books as a kid and wanting one really badly.
And darkcancer, I remember those places having all sorts of awesome prizes, including an inflatable Godzilla. I could never manage to get enough tickets though, how the heck did you manage to do do it!?

Re: What are these? (Help Identify Random Godzilla)
Thanks for the insight, guys. I kind of figured most of them were bootlegs. Though I admit I thought the finger puppets were probably legit (mainly due to Gigan's presence).
No harm, as I've said this is all stuff I've had forever. And they're still pretty cool

Re: What are these? (Help Identify Random Godzilla)
@Creature22 It's funny, now that you mention it I seem to have a memory of being thrilled at finding the keychain in an I Spy Book as a kid... (I already had it way back then). Very cool
And likewise, but not near as vividly, the thought of dollar store connected to those finger puppets rings something of a bell

Identify This Mothra?
I have this strange Bandai Mothra figure, the 8" GMK Mothra 2001. It looks like the theater exclusive, but it's a red/pink color instead of purple. Here's some pics:
The tag is the same as the regular Mothra, but it has this sticker on the back:
It's not listed at Vinylmaddness:
http://www.vinylmaddness.com/bandaifigures2.html
Nor is it on CT:
http://www.clubtokyo.org/listings/itemL ... tentID=634
It's some sort of exclusive figure, but that's all I know. If anyone can identify for me, I'd be thankful!

Re: Identify This Mothra?
Most likely the colors faded away or bleached out due to the figure sitting in direct sunlight for too long.

Re: Identify This Mothra?
The only thing stopping me for thinking this is the tag. Does anyone have pics of the purple exclusive Mothra's tag? Does it have just a sticker on it to tell that it's an exclusive? Don't they usually make a new tag for the exclusives? I know that several theater exclusive figures have new tags, or are at least they're colored B&W.Petezilla wrote:Most likely the colors faded away or bleached out due to the figure sitting in direct sunlight for too long.

Re: Identify This Mothra?
This is true as well. Have there been any other cases of translucent exlusive figures suffering sun damage?Legion1979 wrote:Look how discolored the white safety tag is on that figure. Wouldn't be surprised if it's suffering from sun damage.

Re: Identify This Mothra?
Well, apparently the previous owner did. Possibly. Again, does anyone have pics of the purple exclusive Mothra's tag? That would most likely provide an answer.Godzilla 2000 wrote:I dont think too many people leave their translucent figures in sunlight like that.

Re: Identify This Mothra?
You have the theater exclusive. The theater exclusive was released as clear purple/violet vinyl. The colors on yours is probably discolored to redish/pink because of exposure to sunlight. The kanji on the tag between the 2 stars state "Theater Limited."
SHUT UP AND KAIJŪ!
Re: Identify This Mothra?
Look at the bright side. You now have a uniquely colored Mothra. And its all thanks to the sun.

Re: Identify This Mothra?
So, it's just been discolored by the sun, eh? Oh well. I suppose it is unique, though. Thanks everyone! Mystery solved!

Examples of 2 theater Mothra's color fades due to possible exposure to sunlight.

Re: Identify This Mothra?
The previous owner must have had my Mothra in the sun for a looong time, 'cause it's completley red/pink. Still, thanks for the identification!Kaiju no Mura wrote:Examples of 2 theater Mothra's color fades due to possible exposure to sunlight.

Even though it technically is damaged, that's very sweet looking.
