Kaiyodo 2014

For my taste, except for the part where I save money, I'm very disappointed in/disturbed by this increasing trend toward releasing sets that stray from the original authentic replica style.

But if anyone is interested, please let me know.

The Leaf-tailed Gecko and Knob-tailed Gecko (Nephrurus levis) look great! Otherwise, mostly domestic variations of Leopard Geckos (including wild type); so not nearly as bad as the upcoming caterpillar "set".

Every now and then I see listings on YAJ that could provide an amazing opportunity for the right buyer, so I decided to start noting some of those here.

Today, someone listed all 50, new and unassembled, Natural Monuments figures with a minimum bid of around $300. That's $6 each for pieces that some eBay sellers sell some examples of for over $100 each(!).

There'd be fees and shipping, but bids usually stay close to the openers on YAJ, especially for more expensive lots.

If anyone is interested you can let me know.

There's also a complete aquarium set #6 for about $80 before fees and shipping.

Ohh, the Natural Monuments of Japan are so beautiful figures. But I really can't buy them even if that price is indeed a great occasion. All 50 of them, wow!
Well, but I'm happy with some new Kaiyodos, just arrived today

Laura, are you still having these problems?

Someone asked me to get him the quite rare Furuta secret OPEN TAIL peacock from the flying bird set and I was able to find several. Trying to find a photo but so far no luck. I suppose that's how rare it is.

If anyone is interested in it, please let me know ASAP.

Thanks.

What is the flying bird set?

Old set. Took me a while to find this and the secret isn't shown:

Think it may be the Goshawk

I'm told the secret figure is a peacock with the tail open.  I just couldn't find a photo.

But, someone sent one to me:

The Red Data set secret dodo skeleton:

To those of you who might understand more than I do, is that not illegal? And he describes many other items as recasts.

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

As far as I know recasts means copy taken from the original product and unless it's made under permission it is illegal. But because he didn't mention any permission I suppose it's just, well, a pirate copy.

If anyone here collects Dinotales, I have tons of extras from sets 1, 1.2, 2, 3, and 5 (in addition to tons of spares of Kaiyodo modern animals.

Please e-mail if interested in any.  I'll be listing complete sets on eBay but will do very good prices on figures and especially groups directly.

Thanks.

Crazy esoteric but I know someone will want this...

Oh my, the owls are so cute! Where could I find these?

I can get them (and just about anything else). It's why I post.

Please PM if interested.

I don't know what happened to the photo of the last most recent Capsule Museum Q set--with the raccoon, rock pigeons (due in March)--but I suspect it might have to do with the discussion that followed.

Since I can't copy and paste photos from the site any longer, can someone please re-post the photo and post the newest set--added yesterday--featuring soil dwelling animals, due in April.

The mountain set released this month and the January/February sets are, I believe, the frogs, pests, and geckos.

Thanks.
