Uniqlo Disney Star Wars Figure Eraser
Star Wars Figure Erasers another source for figures. Our very good friend Erwin Sell has come up with some Star Wars Figure Erasers from Japan that can be used with the figures from Hasbro and Happinet in expand your figures.
(Uniglo Co, LTD )=(株式会社ユニクロ), is a Japanese clothing /print fabric company funded in 1949.
Since 2005 it is part of Fast Retailing Ltd. Fast Retailing has kept the brand original name. They have done business together with Disney before Star Wars Uniglo has done various printed products as well as toys.
Star Wars Figure Erasers Background
The Uniglo Star Wars Figure Erasers are about same scale as Hasbro Star Wars Command series and Happinet/Plex brand figures too. The eraser material is rather a hard rubber more as a toy than to erase with it. The Uniglo Star Wars Figure are easy to cut for those making conversions.
If you are interested just look at above name in Ebay, Amazon or Disney stores. These Star Wars Figures are been in market for two or so years as far I remember.
However they are not that cheap.
This picture show a Storm Trooper Eraser in is bag. From the cover of the box I can set there are 15 figures to the series. Do you know of any other series of Star Wars Figure Erasers that might fit in. Please let us know.
And again me like to add …
Yes; few other same size or around eraser had been done by Japanese and other companies.I think the early were made by Butterfly Original LTD in 1982/84 !?. They did the early original movies figures character .Produced in HK for above company and sold in single piece blister pack. Some were painted over, others not .
Now I do not know how soft or hard rubber are those. Not as detail as these made by Japan now.You can still find some on eBay and few web sites as well.
Why bother??
Why not just make great 1:32 figures in a decent ammount of poses?
Like 8 poses of stormtroopers?
They are not bother,they did as eraser=simple.Not toys,still could well be used as for if wish. You know children like to erease too w nice erasers.
Don’t tell me this is the first eraser u see with shape? 🙂 🙂
Storm troopers had been done in many
poses by few companies already.Sorry.:-) 🙂 🙂
Nice sculpting !
Character erasers kind of upset me as a child. I loved my toy soldiers and other characters so much that I hated to think about toy figures that were MEANT to be destroyed.
I came across a Star Wars chess set at the thrift store for about three bucks. The chess pieces are soft plastic, about 60mm scale. Very well sculpted ! Is anyone else familiar with this set? It was produced in 2014.
There seems to be a few different Star Wars Chess Sets on eBay. I’m guessing they must be popular, but THREE BUCKS is a good coupe!
(Hope you can open the link..)
