Aoshima Superman model kit from Japan

Here's a closer look at that Superman wind-up toy model kit I posted about on Mego Buzz a couple of days ago. I love this thing.

Love the box art.

Great stuff Steve, thanks for all the close up pics. Love the cover art, Japanese model kits from this era have such wonderful painted box art. Nice to see the other models in the series, like Spectreman and friends, on the side panel.

I see a little Heiler in the box art. ;-)

I love to see Japan's versions of our heroes, especially the realistic-type paintings like these. The 66 Batman series has some truly wonky package art featuring a crazed Adam West.

Superman does indeed look a bit like a certain Plaid Stallion!

I love the artwork on Japanese imports. They always use such tasteful and quality artwork to sell their product.
