Toy Haul - Japanese store

There's this Japanese store that I've been meaning to go to for a while.  I just haven't had the time though.  Well, I finally made it there a couple of days ago since I was in the area...
There was a Masterpiece Starscream and a Masterpiece Grimlock on the display shelves.  Whoa, those were pricey.  Then there was a whole shelf dedicated to these:


I have no idea which line these action figures are from, but dolls which allow you to undress them to their tighty whities.  Oh wow, that's just so wrong, but I do know a number of people who might enjoy them!


Then there were all these Japanese Transformers stuff.  I have no idea who this vehicle is supposed to be.  Is it a Japanese exclusive?  Hmm...


Anyways, I ended up picking up a GIJoe vehicle, and a Revoltech Jack Skellington.  That's my toy haul from the shop.  The Revoltech was a bit pricey though, but it's a Jack Skellington.  I hope I don't regret it.

  1. That Jack Revoltech looks to be pretty amazing. There was a recent review of it on Its All True...

  2. Well, I bought it for Monster October. It'll be bumping a few other toys back to November.

  3. My wife would go nuts over the Jack Skellington figure. We have so much Nightmare stuff that it isn't even funny!

  5. It's cool that your wife is into action figures as well. Now you know what to get her for Christmas... or Halloween or Yule, or whatever you celebrate.

  6. @hockstylin: But is that a Japanese exclusive Transformers?

  7. I'm definitely hoping to get her/ us the Jack figure. We celebrate Christmas, but he would make a good Halloween gift, as well!

  8. Well, good luck getting one. Those Japanese imports cost an arm-and-a-leg at some places.

  9. Yes, I believe the Alternity line by Takara Tomy is Jap exclusive. Their product is normally superior to Hasbro stuff, and sometimes Hasbro rebadges the jap transformers and brings them stateside

  10. OK, thanks DG! Maybe I'll pick one of them up the next time I'm there to do a review.
