The pose and the yellow jams

The pose and the yellow jams make him look like he's surfing. Cool toy.

Wild!

What a wild line of toys you've been reviewing and thank for reviewing them! I would have never known about them if it wasn't for you reviews.

I don't particularly want to know how much you paid for them but it would be great if you put a ballpark price just so we know!

Wild Figures! Thanks again!
Cheers

Thanks, Leonardo! As for the

Thanks, Leonardo! As for the prices, well, as I mentioned in the Kara-Kasa review, I paid 70,000 yen total for the first 4, but that was with a 15,000 yen discount. I think the original asking price at the shop was 30,000 for Kara-Kasa, 20,000 yen each for Abura Sumashi and Ushi-Oni and 15,000 yen for Hitotsume-Kozo. I distinctly remember being happy that the discount was that much (I thought maybe 5,000 yen) and thinking that I basically got Hitotsume-Kozo for free. Unfortunately, after I got mine I really haven't tracked prices too much so I'm not really sure if what I paid is typical. There is a Kara-Kasa on Yahoo now for 26,000 yen though, and I know it's been there for awhile. It's missing the elastic like mine.

Ikkaku Daioh I later got a really good deal on on Yahoo!Japan. Literally two weeks after one sold for 47,500 yen, I got one for 13,000 yen!! I had seen another previously that ended in the 40,000 yen range and I remember when Matt Alt first told me about this one, he said one had just ended at 35,000 yen. So I guess if I overpaid a little on the first four, I made up for it on the fifth!;)

I've heard of the yokai

I've heard of the yokai movies, but have never seen any of them. How are they?
