I wish manga charachters would appear on western Kinder eggs. It would be a good reason to buy them back after all these years. I still keep my Happy Hippos!

@Toybox - the auction ended a day before you asked, and now I can't find the ending price. ;_;

Here's a pretty music box to cheer everyone up:



A Touchlight!



Two really bad Argentinian wind-up toys. Apparently Astro can swim like a normal human. Anybody recognize the package art from...those abyssmal Argentinian comics?

i want that lamp and the music box!!^^ good finds!^

That lamp is awesome! ^^
Now, which is worse. The Argentina comics or the Now comics? It's anyone's guess XD

Actually, I've started to realize that the NOW! Comics were pretty good early in their run, and their version of Speed Racer is much, much worse. (In fact, I picked up the first seven issues for a dollar recently, and they're super, super horrid.)



URAN! NOOOOOO!


This is either the first wave of Fatasstro Boy toys, or just a bad knockoff of the Astro Kewpie.


Here's something I learned at school that totally fits here:
There goes Mister O'Labatt
Fat-fat-fat
With a cowboy hat

I like to think he's saying "You put that down! That's your fifth one today!"


Kid's chopsticks with Uran and Astro!


How many Astro Guns are in existance...?

I kept the picture size large enough to see all the details; here's a 60's original Astro board game.

You mean... worse than the movie? GASP! XD Actually, I've never seen the movie. I'm just going by the fact that they wrote in a Mach 6


URAN! NOOOOOO!

ROFLMAO
URAN: What? I'm not drinking it. Just selling it. Oil's expensive!

It looks like you move your piece along the board, according to whatever number you get in the pachinko board.


Today's two aren't actually from eBay, but I wish they were. They come from this massive collection page (which has a separate Astro Boy gallery; link is at the bottom of the page).


A little push-back police car, with Tawashi's typical dog design. Someone on TV just said "It's a dog-eat-dog world", which makes everything creepy now.


I never knew they made a Skunk figure. hmy: Ochanomizu has a creepy, cocained " " look to him, and there's the Shunsaku Ban figure I posted before!

They must've gotten him addicted to Yellow Horse again XD
