I'm not a huge fan of tin. I can appreciate the beauty of a nice tin, but the fragility and high prices just turn me off from the scene, which is probably for the best.

Thankfully we have collectors like Josh F who hunt down these pristine samples of tin and share them with the world.

Not only is this tin in excellent shape, but check out the box condition. It's rare to see a tin with a box at all, nevermind a rare box in great shape.

Take a moment to watch this video. We shot this in true 720p High Definition - Youtube now supports it and it is pretty phenomenal. It may take a while to load, but it is well worth it.


My god, I think we've elevated toy porn to a whole new level here.

In regards to the tin, well it is your standard tin walker. Soft vinyl head, tin body, wind up action. It really is a work of art.

Thanks again to Josh Fraser for letting CDX play with his toys for a bit.

is it c10?

I know the box is a c8-9, but these are hard to find in c10 boxes. Thats why my collection of them has been slow going. Pristine boxes command quite a bit more in this specific category just for that reason.

I will hopefully get to post a few true gem mint boxed tins soon.. A getta G Dragon, A Blazer, A Geko Kaman (moonlight mask) and a Ultraseven.

Indeed... just look at the proportion and the color... Toy at it's finest form... I bet it can still move.
