Showcase #65: Animax Shop 29th Anniversary Limited Display Case

 

I recently acquired this display case, in 2008 the 29th anniversary Kinnikuman DVD set was released. The release had some special tie-in promotions upon its release.

 

According to the listing on yahoojapan this came from the Animax Shop but what I dont know is if it was a pre-order promotion or if this was the actual store display of the re-release Kinkeshi sculpts (which I just recently sold!).

 

This was the listing: https://page.auction...tion/x525606406

 

For 7,471 yen I thought it was an interesting piece of Kinnikuman history to own.

 

I was concerned it would get damaged while being shipped but luckily it was not.

 

The thing is bigger than I thought and gorgeous! It has a door latch that you can open but there is no way the Kinkeshi can stand on their own without falling (haha).

 

I might have some left over acrylic shelves pieces that could fit those same dimensions, then I could put some double sided tape and have the Kinkeshi stand perfectly.

 

I might use this to display the creme de la creme Kinkeshi in my collection

I put my Part 28 to Part 30 Kinkeshi sculpts inside and they look good:

that's a great looking case. I love the colourway on his mask.  looks like a traditional luchador.  I had a similar case, unbranded, that someone gave me to present my muscle collection in.  managed to squeeze them all in using glue dots, transparent blu tack stuff, to hold them up......effing disaster!  you only had to look at the bloody things let alone try and mount the case on a wall and they'd all go clattering over!

after a few fits of fury the muscle were back in their jar and the case is in the attic somewhere!  ought to find something else to put in there really...................

Try using double sided tape on the shelves, that works like a charm for me!

Can you still buy this case? Where can I find one?

[kayfabe1985]

I bought mine on yahoojapan (but they are not readily available or at least I have not seen another one in the 5 yrs I have been collecting Kinkeshi).

That's an awesome display, shame they don't release them in higher numbers really
