    Shogun Warriors Utility Belt

    \


    Ever since I first stumbled on this newspaper ad, I've been intrigued by this clever little set. I'd always wanted to track one down but sadly my "track that down" list is vast and I may have focus issues so it never happened. Fortunately for me, my good pal and podcast partner Jason has more focus and let's me live vicariously through his purchases:





    While I originally thought this set was created by Remco (mostly because of the word "official" and the recycled Batman communicator), I was surprised to find it's by GLJ. GLJ is one of those companies that doesn't roll off the tongue but they made some amazing stuff like this.


    I really love the extras here like the Axe and Sword, some care went into this, dammit I still want one!

    Neat! That clicker gun is also a Remco staple. Odd that both molds jumped ship to another company!

    They did put some thought into this one though, didn't they?

      I may have had that set, I definitely had pieces for one reason or another.

        That set is all kinds of awesome! It's great that they incorporated accessories that were based on actual weapons of the first three Shoguns, this wasn't just something phoned in.

          I would have automatically thought that it was Remco too.
