El Cosmico here, with the second cool-ass bunch o' goodness my buddy LOGAN sent in, a super-awesome set of TOSHIRO MIFUNE action figures.

Okay, I'm gonna have to buy ALL of these. In fact, I'm gonna have to buy two sets, one that I can play with, and the other to keep in their original packaging. Go on over to http://www.alfrex.co.jp/, and check them out. They've got Zatoichi, Toshiro Mifune, an upcoming Lone Wolf and Cub set, a Seven Samurai set, Mondo Nakamura, Nenbutsu no Tetsu, an upcoming Akuma Mefist with Young Boy Yamada, and Kinzo Ginji.

You can buy them all, prices range from about 6,800 Yen to 120,000 for the set of Seven Samurai. The Mifune Doll is 15,000 Yen. (The rate is currently 105.7 Yen to the US Dollar, 166.9 to the British Pound, 99.23 to the Euro, and 15.15 to the French Franc). Anyway, get on over there and buy yourself some of these AWESOME items, that are sure to be collector's items.
