So, What do you think could be lurking in this TAKARA mailaway box?    Just thought I would see what kind of answers people would post. The Auction is in Japanese but that can be translated if you give up and need a hint. page9.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/k29649584If anyone has genuine interest in bidding, I will make certain to reveal the contents well before the auction is over. |

I saw that myself and couldn't figure it out. I think I tried translating it but couldn't make anything of it. The outline on the bottom pic looks humanoid. The katakana says "Gunki Raho" No clue what that means...

It is not a recent issue by any means. If I remember correctly, it is from the year 1999 or 2000. I would have to pull out mine and check for sure. On the 1st Paragraph in black type, The 1st sentence in Japanese is a dead give away as to what it is.

Nope. not him.  Not Nookie Bear either I'm afraid... Think more towards a takara 12" cyborg toy, but not as crystaline in nature. |

Yeah for some reason they gave the character the Moniker "The FEAR KING". However it is not the Dokuroking.

Congratulations You got it! Actually I got a confused message from Johnny wondering the same thing, but you both got it. He asked me what the deal was with the packaging because he was translating somethig about an ALIEN, yet Invader dolls came in BOXES The Special Limited Releases of the Invader Aliens were issued in Bags. The Clear Invader Z was issued in a header Bag and Invader J in Mirrored packaging . Without any fanfare, Here are the contents of the mystery box:   |

Sadly, No one bid on it so the Japanese seller relisted it for another 5 days...

this would be rad to get, but most of the appeal (at least to me) is the transparency of these toys...

Japanese Glow Vinyls & Transparent Vinyls both have a big fan base.
There was a Glittery Clear vinyl version of Invader Z. You might like that one better, though it is at least as difficult to come across as the Glow Invader J.
