Vintage Vinyl Japan style


I got back from tokyo recently and Hong kong, it was an amazing trip! as you can see I've become increasingly obsessed with vintage vinyl toys. in there we have Jumborg-A, Zone Fighter, Lion Maru, Tetsujin Tiger Seven, and some others anyhow

Hey! Great blog, quick question. What are Vintage Vinyl toys? I mean, why are they called that.

thanks! well in the 60's and 70's probably even earlier many if not most japanese character toys were simple figures, made from vinyl. They still make vinyl toys today and many countries now are doing designer and urban vinyl figures so when I say vintage its reffering to these older original toys
