Painted Kinkeshi Premiums
By Professor Terry
I’ve been collecting and showcasing the new Kinkeshi Premium releases in the last year. I’m also a fan of having full color versions of my favourite figures in a line. So I’ve been on the hunt for custom painted Premium figures.
These are actually quite abundant on Japan’s version of EBay. They have also been very popular in Japan and prices have ranged from $20 to $200 a painted figure!
I’ve been lucky enough to win 2 favourites from Japan in Kinkotsuman and Iwao. Many others I have missed out on. I do have my favourite figure from Vol. 7 on his way as well, keep an eye out on Instagram for that one.
Now the other 3 painted figures I own from Vol 5 have come courtesy of Mike’s Painted Minitures. For those unfamiliar with Mike’s work, check out the photo of Satan Cross, King 100T and Puripuriman here. He does a great job and I am very happy Mike was able to buy a set of Kinkeshi Premium Vol.5 just to paint!
I would love more painted figures from this line, in particular from Vol.6 so watch this space!
