New Rumble Monsters figures (international orders OK!)

The other day at Erostika (Rockin' Jelly Bean's shop in Tokyo), I spotted three new Rumble Monsters figures, which I had previewed in a previous post.

Here are images of the actual figures. They can be ordered from Erostika's online shop.

Big news for Rumble Monsters fans. Erostika (Rockin' Jelly Bean's retail outlets in Tokyo and Nagoya) has put out a flyer detailing upcoming releases of Rumble Monsters toys and T-shirts. It's been quite a while since new versions of these toys have been released.

On the docket are new versions of Pharaohs, Damnedron, and Monstallion. Back in the day, RM put out fantastic paint apps for these figures, including some legendary Pushead designs.

Some closeups of the flyer:

The price breakdown looks like:

All T-shirts are 5,040 yen each

The flyer says the release is slotted for July, though no specific date is mentioned. Welcome back, Rumble Monsters!

Rumble Monsters exhibition @ One up Akiba

One up Akiba's first indy maker solo show was by Rumble Monsters. The event, which ended yesterday, featured a fantastic 2004-2011 retrospective of RM figures, most of which were for sale. It was kind of nostalgic looking at the Damnedrons, Pharoans, and other figures from one the pioneers of the modern indy sofubi wave.

The top row of figures, which included some nice Pushead HPs, were display only:

Vader and Stormies!

Pushead HP. You can also see the back reflection of the Pushead Hot Fudge Damnedron (one of my all time favorite sofubi toys).
