Marusan 350 Ultraman & Zetton






Two of the best souvenirs from Seibuen Amusement Park 🎑✨. Ultraman The Ride: Great Battle of the Century and the 4D showdown with Zetton totally blew my mind—pure Tokusatsu magic Shuwatch‼️ OIO Celebrating 60 years with these out-of-the-bag Marusan Seibuen Yuenchi Limited Ultra Q sofubi of Ultraman ❤️🩢 Type B 350 πŸ†š Zetton πŸ–€πŸ’› 350. If you wonder why 350? The “Marusan 350” refers to the classic size of Marusan soft vinyl (sofubi) kaiju figures, named after their original 350-yen retail price in the 1960s. These standard, approximately 9-inch (20-23cm) figures are iconic to the era. Goofy in the best way, packed with nostalgic charm and that classic final boss face-off energy. Recreated the iconic Hayata Ultraman vs Zetton moment using the newspaper πŸ“° and cookie box as backdrop.

BJJ URTRA By Jae Jung Beck Collaboration with Jinart





BJJ URTRA — a striking collectible designed by Jae Jung Beck of BJJ in collaboration with Jinart Select. This piece pays homage to Father of Ultra, reinterpreted through BJJ’s signature prismatic design language. The iconic horned helmet is reimagined with a faceted gem πŸ’Ž embedded in the head crest, while the bold cross-chest pattern and vibrant colour blocking bring a dynamic, modern energy to the classic tokusatsu aesthetic. The sculpt blends retro kaiju sofubi proportions with sharp, contemporary styling—resulting in a character that feels both nostalgic and futuristic. Released in multiple colourways, each version highlights BJJ’s playful yet refined approach to form, colour, and balance. A brilliant fusion of Ultraman tribute and art toy expression. ✨πŸ’Ž OIO. This design was first introduced in 2015. At the time, only a resin prototype existed. After 10 years, it has finally been released as a sofubi figure. So glad more had been produced in sofubi form I managed to own one πŸ™πŸ» πŸ™ŒπŸ».

Robot Detective Keiji By Marmit Sofubi





γƒ­γƒœγƒƒγƒˆεˆ‘δΊ‹ Robot Detective Keiji. In 1998, Marmit released this sofubi, Vinyl Paradise from the Toei retro line, classic Tokusatsu 1973 nostalgia in pure vinyl form. πŸ€–πŸ”₯ Rocking a bold red suit with that signature blue face and yellow accents, this piece captures the retro-futuristic charm of Showa era design perfectly. The subtle gradient fade on the legs adds an extra layer of character, giving it that unmistakable vintage sofubi vibe. Detective K is looking into a case of who painted that smiley 😊 face πŸ•΅️πŸ«†πŸ€”. Set against a gritty, graffiti backdrop, it feels like K just stepped out of a forgotten alley, ready to serve justice with style. A timeless piece for collectors who appreciate the roots of Japanese sci-fi and soft vinyl culture.

BJJ Rider Man Version 2.0










BJJ Rider Man πŸ”΄πŸ’ŽπŸ”΄ Version 2.0 is a striking sofubi collaboration between Kaiju One and BJJ Art, paying homage to classic tokusatsu heroes—most notably Riderman from Kamen Rider V3. The figure channels a nostalgic Showa-era aesthetic through its bold blue, red, and yellow color scheme, complemented by metallic silver boots and gloves that instantly evoke the look of vintage Kamen Rider suits. This version 2.0 release introduces enhanced play and display options, featuring two interchangeable crystal ornament helmets that allow for alternate silhouettes. Helmet is removable to reveal BJJ artist - Beck Jae Jung. A standout accessory is the blue arm attachment fitted with a red drill tip, reinforcing Riderman’s iconic mechanical arm influence while adding a kaiju-toy twist. With its glossy sofubi finish, chunky proportions, and retro-futuristic detailing, BJJ Rider Man 2.0 successfully bridges old-school Kamen Rider nostalgia and modern art-toy sensibilities, making it a standout piece for tokusatsu fans and sofubi collectors alike.

Kamen Rider Shin Chan Figure Drink / Popcorn Holder





Henshin! Shin Kamen Rider or Shin Chan or both? I'm glad the scarf look good on you. Movie drink cup available in Thailand cinema. Wondering how come we don't had such cool and adorable movie merchandise here in Singapore. Love the helmet that was advertised as popcorn holder. Remove the helmet to review Shin Chan face. Invert the helmet and it can be used as a bowl for popcorn.

Shin Japan Heroes Universe Sofubi



Sofubi (Soft Vinyl Figurines) of Shin Japan Heroes Universe (SJHU) bought during last Japan trip … SJHU is an ongoing Japanese collaborative project between Toho, Khara, Tsuburaya Productions, and Toei. Developed by Hideaki Anno, it unites four of his critically-acclaimed IP such as Evangelion, Ultraman, Godzilla & Kamen Rider… Must have for me as they are too iconic and set the standard of Japan pop culture.

Sacred Guardians S.G HEROART Series Sacred Guardian Singa (First Edition) is here! Congrats Basil and his dedicated team in making our πŸ‡ΈπŸ‡¬ home grown Tokusatsu production a reality! What a milestone from concept, the suit, promo video, manga… from simple mechs like sticker, badge, keychain, post card to finally its own figurine! I love the design of Singa inspired by lion...

Kamen Rider V3 Heroes Series Vinyl Figure











Henshin look back time on Kamen Rider V3! Certainly more vibrant colours when compared to the earlier riders. V is clearly indicated on his antenna and belt. This figure is not the vintage but released in 2008. Figure stands roughly 18cm tall and is made by vinyl material It features articulation via a rotation in the shoulders and the waist. The design has a lot of green on the entire body with some red, white and chrome. I really like those old-school insect eyes that's stay true to the original. Good budget figure and with the feel of the figure which I used to play as a kid.
