Weekly Drop: Marusan Pigmon Grail, Vintage Bullmark Hedorah, a They Live Invasion & Fresh Sofubi (June 2026)
Big week for the old guard. The shelf filled up with vintage Japanese vinyl this time, the real foundational stuff: Marusan, Bullmark, B-Club, Marmit, the houses that started kaiju sofubi in the first place. Then a fresh wave of indie pieces landed on top, including a little They Live alien invasion. Here is what is in hand and in stock.
Hero of the Week
Marusan Clear x Blue x Iridescent Pigmon
Clear vinyl with blue and gold paint, and an iridescent cellophane insert tucked inside that catches the light. Outstanding in hand. Marusan is where kaiju vinyl began, the studio that cast the very first Godzilla sofubi back in 1966, so anything with their stamp carries weight. Pigmon is the friendly little Ultraman kaiju everybody roots for, and this exact piece shows up on collector blogs as far back as 2008. Almost 20 years old and it does not look like it aged a day. A real Marusan grail.

The Vintage Vault
Old Japanese vinyl does not land like this every week. Three studios from the golden era showed up at once.
B-Club Green Alien Nackle
Green vinyl with metallic blue, red, silver and more paint. Has the Bullmark stamp with Popy written in black pen on the bottom of the foot, so we are calling it B-Club. Alien Nackle is a heavy hitter from Return of Ultraman, the alien famous for taking down Ultraman Jack, and this is a great old sofubi of him. Loose, no packaging, like new condition.

Marmit Vinyl Paradise Golden Kanegon Piggy Bank
Vinyl painted gold, based on Yuji Kaida’s illustration work. Kanegon is the money eating kaiju from Ultra Q, so a Kanegon piggy bank is the perfect joke. The coin slot is solid vinyl out of the box, but easy to open up if you want it to actually hold money. Classic Marmit production, both the nostalgia and the quality. New in bag with header.

Two takes on Hedorah, the Smog Monster from the 1971 Toho film, both vintage Bullmark mid size. The Cherry Blossom is clear vinyl with pink and a wee bit of silver paint, and it is the one still up for grabs at $59. Grab the Cherry Blossom Hedorah here. The Clear version, just a hint of silverish purple on the hands and feet, already sold out. Awesome pollution monster sofubi either way. Both loose, no packaging, like new condition.
A DX Showpiece That Actually Rolls
MVH x Kaiju One Green Death Head Sludge Demon DX TriCycle
This one is a whole scene. Green vinyl with blue, black, yellow and more paint, and the Sludge Demon rides a working wind up tricycle, key included. Wind it up and it rolls. A menacing sculpt on a kid toy trike should not work as well as it does. Comes in the original box, like new condition. The DX of the week at $499, and a standout if you collect MVH or Kaiju One.

A They Live Invasion
Three different studios, one John Carpenter movie. The They Live aliens crept into the drop this week, that 1988 skull faced obey and consume nightmare turned into sofubi. Fun cluster if you love the film.
The Awesome Toy They Live Alien Dog Jinmenken is blue vinyl with red, white and more paint, a Jinmenken reworked into the alien dog, limited to a handful back in 2016. Grab the alien dog for $199. The JxN Toys x Obsessed Panda They Live Gorazon is lighter blue vinyl with red, blue and silver, classic paint straight off the Carpenter look. Gorazon is $299. And the Kaiju One They Live Zombie Politician is sweet stuff, black vinyl with blue, red and white, a perfect send up. The Zombie Politician is $249. All loose, header card only or no packaging, like new condition.
Fresh Sofubi on the Shelf
Dream Rocket Yamahiru Kaiju Guillozen
Blue vinyl with the leech part cast in glow in the dark vinyl, painted up in black, red, blue and more. Awesome vinyl. The glow leech is a great touch in hand and charges right up. Loose, no packaging, like new condition.
$155 In stock View →
Secret Base Clear x Glow Double Pour Skullman
A double pour: clear vinyl on the outside, glow in the dark vinyl on the inside, painted over the top in red and white. Awesome sofubi from Secret Base, one of the all time great Japanese studios. Bit of a leaner to the back side, but honestly not bad. Loose, no packaging, like new condition.
