Seem pretty much in scale right? I'm more interested in the racks and carts

Yeah, it's a pretty safe bet it's close to scale... Those blank people are pretty fabulous too.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE Gashapon machines im ALWAYS wishing there was somewhere around here that had them im constantly looking at gashapon stuff on ebay. I have a pretty decent collection of gashapon cats myself, but no constipated ones.

the only thing cooler than these chairs is the chairs plus the little carrier thing!

The link says they're 12th scale. That yellow/black chick looked like a Bosou Shinki fig, which are about 5.5" tall.

Yeah, but looking at those figures seated in the chairs, the chairs look just a little small for them, which means they might work well with at least modern-style G.I. Joes. They might be a little big for ARAH's.

Man, those theatre seats are cool. I always wanted a mission briefing room with these type of seats. The PIT sorta had a room like this...

Pretty sure those are mostly 5-6 in figures pictured with that. So these might be too big.

for the theater seats, I'd bet they still look great with 4" figures. Not all theater seats are made alike, and some are nice big and cushy. Either way, holy hell those are awesome.

I searched for a bit but can't find a source for those theater seats. I would really like at least one and I don't care if it is a bit too large.

but those are all still just the folding chair set, not theater seats

Was just coming here to post the other link as well. Pulled the trigger with the seller earlier this afternoon. That seller did also post three lots for theater seats as well. Sadly they aren't buy it now auctions. I've set the first bid on one of them.

Here is one of them: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Gashapon-Miniat ... 51c6bcabb1

Edit: with an msrp of 200 yen it is really unfortunate to not have gashapon machines locally. I would go wild for them.

ok I got ahold of the person that actually wrote the little article about the theatre chairs. she sent me a link to this site to order them.
http://www.fumuo.com/capsule/eptngekis.html
of course the problem is the website is in Japanese. who can help me figure out how to order these? and if they will even sell the the u.s.?
