Alllllllso, one of my all time favorite movies from my childhood (and from China) is Super Infra Man ('75), and recently Unbox Vinart teamed up with the Shaw Brothers to release what is seriously one of the most killer 10" vinyl figures ever-- Super Infra Man!!! Incredibly colored, his helmet is removable to reveal the actor underneath, plus he has a back-up set of alt colored fists you can swap out. The box design is just as spectacular.

Holy Moley that Inframan figure is awesome! (And the Skeleton Spectre, natch.) I have got to dig that movie out again sometime soon. I like Giant Robo too, but the overspray on the red paint is a shame. I mean, it hardly ruins anything, but it keeps distracting me while I'm adoring the figure.
The over spray doesn't bother me in the slightest... in fact, it feels more like an intentional design choice for this figure, in the same way people intentionally off register color in comics, or distress tee images for a retro vibe
Yeah, I assume it was intentional, too. I dig that kind of thing far more when it's accidental (but have myself been known to distress and screw up the registration of things for effect). It's no deal-breaker, I just think I'd like the look a little better if the wrists and ankles were the same as the chest.
For some reason the dark over-spray on the knees and elbows doesn't bother me a bit, though. So maybe it's just that fact that there are two kinds of red here, then. I don't know. Now I'm going to have to buy my own and look at it all the time in my room. Just to meditate on my opinion.
Hi Karswell, Do you or anyone you know have any experience with Unbox Industries? I would like to have a designer doll created and I'm looking for a company to make a limited run. It looks like a cool company.
Sorry no... just the occasional purchase. Try writing to them-- good luck!
