Here's something we've seen before on MC but only in part. Now we can see the full candy showa molab vehicle from Japan. Thanks to Terry H for pointing it out.
Its a lovely thing, but I think it owes more to the Spacex II R6 Rescue Craft than the Molab https://www.triangspacextoys.info/SpGAtoys/Rsc6/SpLTRsc6.html Bill
It used to be possible to buy from Yahoo Japan, but then they blocked international trade. I think there are individuals who do offer to buy or bid by proxy for you on auction sites, but its a costly business. Its a shame because the toys and models that appear in the listings are absolutely magical. Bill

Yes, the R6, its its twin! A lovely thing, I'd like to see them side by side.
DeleteAh, nothing like Japanese SF toy design... SFZ
ReplyDeleteOh, yes! So crazy!
DeleteThat's a really cool toy! Does anyone here actually try to buy things from Japanese auction sites?

DeleteYes, they have some wonderful toys over there!
ReplyDeleteBuyee is a third party buying site you can access Japanese stuff from. I used to use Noppin. Not sure you can anymore.
ReplyDeleteI'll have to check out Buyee and Noppin to see what's what
