It's not Astro Boy, but it's Captain Harlock. And it's the ugliest mask of him, ever.

I wouldn't have guessed it if you hadn't told it :eek:

Worst... mask... ever... :D
The real sign that someone has become a fanatic is that he completely loses his sense of humor about some important facet of his life. When humor goes, it means he's lost his perspective.

Look kids, I found something completely weird...

Image
On eBay, this is referred to as "The Astro Boy Police Bus", when Astro only appears once on the box. There's nothing wacky-fantastic about the bus, but Astro says it's got some Mystery Action. What's a CM battery?

Image
Boxer. Shorts. 'Kay.

Image
This Lisa thing is hanging out with the Harlock mask. Apparently, this is an "Argentinian porcelain statuette, mounted on a piece of wood", when it looks like somebody got stoned while watching The Simpsons, bought some FIMO clay and glaze, then nailed the result to a stick-on magnet.

THE worst bootleg Uran figure ever. And look, she brought friends!

:lol: It is nothing unusual to see items having nothing to do with the characters emblazoned upon them.

I just found some weird Astro Boy cards. Two of them look like lost cels of the 80's series, and the others are...weird.

Image
Classic bootlegs. Looks like Astro's face is made of rubber, and he's got some crazy new gloves that GLOW

Image
Jeepers, and people tell me that "Skipper the Robot Kid" is a rip-off.

Image
Astro's been working out! And since he got those pecs, Pluto got ugly. No wonder he looks so sad.

Image
I don't remember this scene in the 80's version...

Image
...nor do I recall Hamegg making Astro wear a cape.

The two bottom images may not even be from any anime, perhaps they are just trading cards. But they could be from Astro Boy: Shinsen-gumi. :confused:
