I'm sure they are all repros, if my memory serves me correct the spikes on the shoulders of the vintage are different to the one in the pic.
My own childhood costume is in the loft i'll take a look this week.

Okay, Here is the photo I posted the link to:  I never noticed that my 1970's Dokuro King had GLOSS paint. WHen I saw the photo it hit me that the repros weer not using this gloss paint. The figure on the left is the Warp Magazine version and the figure to the right is the takara reissue. Below is a Vintage costume loose:  Here are the reissues:  |

Okay Johnny, Here is a close up of the Black Walder head & torso.  The "Cybo guts" are caked with a thick layer of GLOW paint. I'll see what else I can dig up to post. - Guy |

Here are some other comparisons: UK Torg Vs Japanese vintage Dokuroking  Japanese KWJr Dokuroking vs the UK Torg   I still think the UK version got the details better. Cheers, Guy |

Lovely pics!
Hey Guy, what's the purple 8" body that you display your KWJr Dokuroking on? It doesn't appear to be a Muton because it's darker, but they never did a purple KWJr... or did they?
Or is it one of your innumerable customs?

The Purple body is actually not mine. It is a Japanese figure Painted to look like the Muton we all know and love : ) When you see it standing next to the UK Muton, you should Notice the difference. The painted version is much darker and has other subtle differences. Apparently the UK Muton figures are going for stupid amounts of money in Japan and it is cheaper to paint up a shonen re-issue figure. I guess the Japanese aren't ready to crash the UK market on Denys Fisher 8" Cyborgs just yet anyway. Here is a photo if the 12" Walder reissues loose.  |
