FigBunker 15: Import Boys

[@BrickSomething]

Man…I’m an even older fart and couldn’t even tell you what my first, first was, cuz we’re talking the 1980s. Grew up around LA in Downey, and my brother and I somehow would convince our parents to pay for something from Pony Toy Go Round in LA. My favorite was the vintage Mospeada Cyclone (Excite Gakken) before Robotech hit in the States. Modern tho, Storm are my go to because of scale. I have one Figma that I work into things even though it’s hella small: the human anatomical figure. Oh, and a MonsterArts Gojira from the early 2000s I think. But I’m pretty limited on my Japanese import stuff. Now the stuff coming out of HK, Taiwan, and China…I’ve been all over that. Ha. The scale of my stuff generally has saved me from the Japanese Import rabbit hole, but that just means I’m spiraling down other ones. ✌🏾➕✊🏾

wow. small world. I grew up in south gate so we were basically neighbors. I bet you probably hit up the toys r us in bell gardens (rip) that vegeta I got was from legion comics on tweedy which has now relocated to east l.a. and as far as 3rd party that's a whole different beast that I'm looking forward to covering soon.
