    The DOKURO KING (Skeleton King) on the purple Walder is a new favorite!

    Congrats! Not sure if your Walder is a repro ,but be careful of the Skeleton King parts on the plastic as I saw photo they can interact with the clear Walder and cause the plastic body to "fog". You may already know which lines were affected but thought best to give a heads up.

      That's a vintage Walder in the picture. I'm familiar with the one you are talking about. It's a much later re-issue, 2000 time frame and yes the chest does fog up.

          I got in a small box of stuff from Japan. Included in that was a vintage yellow Walder and I put the Dokuro King costume on it. I also got a re-issue 8" Walder (around 2000). He's in the front there.

            gotta say I like the Dokuro King on the purple a little better then the yellow, but they are all awesome.

              I've been concentrating on vintage King Walders lately, trying to get more examples of those.

              I have the vintage purple, yellow and green Walders now, and the Skull King and Satan King costumes too. I have a partial green Walder set aside for when I can get the Plant Monster set.

              Enjoy!

                Great collection--is that a repro Dr. Evil labcoat?

                I have the Satan King repro figure, and I see Satan King & Plantman ones online. But it's not advisable to put these on actual figures?

                I never seem to see the Cy99 magno figures...

                  No that's a vintage Dr. Evil labcoat, I seem to have extras of those hanging around....

                  The vintage Walder sets are fine to be put on vintage figures. Some of the re-issue stuff, Secret Base etc, tend to have melt issues on the reproduction bodies, but I've never noticed that with the vintage ones.

                    Aha, I was referring to repros.

                      Got a box of stuff from Japan this week!



                      Cyborg, Shonen(boy) cyborg, Waruda Plant Monster set, and a Tac Team Commander!

                      Also got this Kubrick Disney Old Bob.



                      Here's a picture of the TAC Team Commander standing next to the Allies of Justice MAT Member, or Monster Attack Team Member.



                      Here's all of my costumed Waruda's(Walder)

                        Great toys, I think it's only a matter of time before I finally buckle and start collecting Henshins seriously! And I always look for Kubrick Black Hole figures when I'm in Japan but never have any luck finding any!

                          l think the Cyborgs are pretty cool myself. I would think those Kubricks would be all over there, but I don't see them listed much. This Old Bob I got real cheap, so I was pretty happy about that, under $5 USD.

                              Ahh keep 'em comin'! Sweet cyborgness!

                              I finally nabbed my first vintage MIB JR last week… holy power package! Not only are the figures intoxicatingly fun and in Mego scale, but the packaging and collateral themselves are kinda hypnotic. The catalog included behind the insert is a tome of wondrous things!

                                I see lots of Kubricks over there, but never these guys. And wow, five bucks is an absolute steal!
