Anyone collect these Vinyl figures for Ultraman, Super Sentai, Kamen Rider etc? Good prices for good character likenesses.
Who clips the tags off and who doesn't? Thinking of clipping mine now I've got a few but my autismo brain is stopping me.
I only got a handful back when they used to come in boxes. Seemed less like you were buying a dog toy.

I have a few. My favorites are Kamen Rider Genm Dangerous Zombie and Kamata-kun.
Not Ultra-related but I found this guy at a Goodwill the other day, apparently it's hard to find.

Yeah, that one cost me $50 back in '99, so it probably goes for quite a handful in the right markets. Nice find, anon.

Nice! I've seen eBay lots of random Kaiju and Ultramonsters go for £100+ because of rare Vinyls in the mix. That guy looks amazing though! The gold is fantastic.
I'm not sure if Bandai's been skimping on paint lately, or if I'm just blinded by nostalgia.

They are lower quality than they used to be I think. I've got some Boukenger ones with way more paint, a neck joint with plastic helmet & accessories included. Night and day compared to the current ones,
Still love them though.

Look at Ultra Monster Zamsher circa Mebius, and circa Ginga. D:

By "the other day" do you mean last year or something? Someone definitely said the exact same thing not long ago

Did all of the Bandai lines get hit with the massive quality dip or was it just the Ultra stuff?

That's a lot of DANGER you got right there anon
My introduction to these was buying some Kyoryuger t-shirts fro my son on eBay. The lady selling them messaged me to say how happy she was to be selling them to someone with a kid that loved Kyoryuger and would throw in something a little extra for him. So on top of four t-shirts for like $15, she threw in the figures for the main six and my little boy absolutely adores them.
Since them, I've gotten him an Ultraman (which was like three inches shorter surprisingly) and Kamen Rider Stronger, who just came in the mail a couple days ago. He's been taking Nossan and Stronger everywhere with him.

My son's two and my daughter's four. They both randomly break into the first verse of the Kyoryuger OP and actually get some of the words right too, haha. They try to sing it in stores and things too by suddenly bursting into the "Whoa, whoa..." but. It's quite a sight.
My son was playing with Stronger and Kyoryu Red earlier and I asked if he'd like another Rider to keep Stronger company. He thought for a moment be fore say "Yes. I like Fourze, he is my favorite."

Fourze is pretty great. My first KR show.

W was mine and I loved it. I'd tried to find a Double figure for this, but Amazon (where I usually find this for cheap) only had them for like $60+ last I saw.
We're about 15 episodes into Fourze now and I really like it. I'm planning to see if the missus would like to watch the Fourze/OOO Mega Max movie with this weekend. I think Gentaro might be my favorite neo-Heisei (is that the term people use for post W series?) Rider so far.
There is this ultra monster Tyrant set you can find on ebay for 50$
>>6320983
I collect some occasionally.
So far just Kamen Rider kaijins: I have like 6 of the different worms from Kabuto & the EX set of Gamel & Mezool.
I clip the tags, of course. I don't plan on selling them (who cares if they lose their value- they are cheap).

Got both Fourze and Meteor on the way now. He's always freaking out about the WCF for them that I have in my office, so I hope he likes having his own to play with.
Bought Red, Violet, and Skyblue Kyurangers because they were the only ones available on hlj when I was buying Kyurenoh when it was out of stock everywhere else. Ryu Commander stands up well enough, but it seems Red and Skyblue's feet are spaced to close together and they can't really stand. Suggestions on how to fix this? I can get them to stand for a few seconds by pushing them down so their legs spread a little more, and they can stand fine on a coffee table I have that has uneven stone tiles on it, but I want them on my bookshelf around Kyurenoh
