Super Festival 60


Welcome to Kaiju Korner's Super Festival 60 report. We have 236 images for you, from dozens of booths. Enjoy!

Angel Abby


 More after the jump:



These are customs.



These Skull Head Butts have the exclusive Angel Abby head.

I'd call these all-time Secret Base/Pushead greats - especially the green version.

The Garamon was sold unpainted - green.

Superb level of detail on these




 Fig Lab:

Some sold with red blotches/splatter. Some sold all white.






Just 4000 yen for a set of 3!
Frenzy:
First time I've seen these new figures sold. Remember we previewed them at the Rubber Duck Frenzy show recently.

Speaking of Rubber Duck, I believe another Frenzy Show is scheduled to be held there later this month.

To be released at NYCC

Shamrock Arrow:



Shikaruna:

 Sunguts:

Velocitron:




Yamanaya:


Yamomark:
The figures with numbers in front are gacha prizes. The gachas (1000 yen per try) contained either a mini figure or a numbered slip telling you which large figure you won.
 


First production versions I've seen of these Yamomark super minis.






 
 Other:
The painted figure on the left (and on the posters) was sold as a pre-order.


The smaller figure on the right shows the approximate size of how big the figure will actually be when it's released.


The next few pics are a really nice display of 20 years of Super Festival fliers. Really cool way to mark SF 60. Congrats to the show organizers for decades of success!


Dealer tables:
As always, there was a wide range of toys sold at the dealer tables, from 50 year-old figures to brand new toys.













Well, that's all from Super Festival 60. Thanks for reading!

Exceptional as always. That was interesting about the 1000 yen bubble /lottery minis that led to winning a bigger fig. I wonder how many won.

I know for sure prize #1 was claimed. You got either a mini or a larger fig (via a number) from each gacha spin - not both.
