Oh shizznit...I had forgotten about a back of all three photo. And it's dark here now. Oh well, I will take a pic if you want Marty, that sounds like a cool idea. It just slipped my mind. I will have to wait until tomorrow though, they are awesome with shots in natural light without a flash.

Amazing, simply amazing. I'll have to start watching auctions more closely now. Congratulations on finding yet another super rare!

[arforbes]

Thanks smackman!

Hey,

I was doing a search on old Super Rare posts and topics and came across this...

http://www.littlerub...ashuraman&st=60

If you go about half way down you will see a bunch of pics of Kinnikuman figures that I posted explaining my theory of what the next possible Super Rares might be.

Check it out. Dark Emperor, one of the two that I predicted to be Super Rares from Part 15 was found. Theory holds true.

That leaves only the last missing Kinnikuman mold from Part 15 left, unless the three other from Part 21 were made.


So, could this figure be the next Super Rare...



I believe it is the next most likely candidate. Only time will tell!

The blue spec is common among figures that have rested on the cardboard backs of the 4-Packs for extended amounts of time.

Notice the faint blue markings on the back of DM.


Picture courtesy of Nathan's MUSCLE page!

Are these possible 4-pack markings or just ink stains? Their placement doesn't seem to fit with 4-pack markings, but who knows?

Just trying to gather all pertinent information!

You'd better watch out, Alex. Three super rares? You're effin gonna get hit by lightning, or a meteorite!

Seriously though...Can I paint him?

I'll do a real bangup job...

Those are ink stains of some sort. Philly tried to clean them but they wouldn't come off. The specs I am talking about are usually located on tiny parts of the figure that rest on the cardboard backings of the 4-Packs. They usually flake off with a finger nail or wipe clean with soap and warm water.

Haha! Not likely. Although, I know that your paint job on a figure like this would be extremely badass! Anyone got a Kinkeshi version of this figure to send to pasvagrsvj for painting?

Or one to send to Marty for customs!!!

[jkaris]

Marty has a kinkeshi version in his collection, I believe. I don't think he'll be making any customs, unless there is a huge demand for them. Even then, the kinkeshi version is pretty common, not hard to find like the BHS, SC or SHA kinkeshi.

He should make a custom of it then! Then it could be included in the 3-Pack making it a four pack of Super Rares! Or add DM and have a Super Rare 5-Pack!

Well, how about these spots?:



Hm? Or these spots?:





arforbes, did you try to ask the seller any questions? Like when and where he got the figures, etc?

That's funny you should ask that because I am in the process of typing an email to him with those sort of questions right now. I'll let you know what he says.
