Schematics are always interesting. Someone took the time to draw up all that detail.

Hola KT!!!
You are welcome and I'm glad you liked them. These treasures I got them in auctions in Japan. Sometimes it's easy to win them, some other I really need to push for them.
They are here to be enjoy for all.....more on the way!

Hola Becky!
Yes, it is a very difficult task that it's hardly appreciated in the final product. This sequence would probably last a fraction of a second in the series

Hola RIgirl!
That one was so difficult to get. Actually the base is from another collection by I placed them on the top, looked so nice! Hopefully one day Dr. Nambu will be added....another difficult one!
Thanks to you for commenting!

Hola Springie!
Thank you! As I was mentioning earlier on, the base was actually given with another set of figurines but when I saw it in an auction, I thought it would be great for my small figures and voila! They looked great together.....

Hi all!

The set of 8 characters from the Lawson convenience store that you have there is actually the complete set for that particular series of figures. There was no Dr. Nambu made for it. The five Ninja Team members, Katse, and the Gallactor Member were the regular figures, and Red Impulse was the chase figure, as you can see in the little character descriptions that came with each figure.
On the right side of each sheet, they show the entire set, except for the "secret" Red Impulse chase figure, who is only revealed on his own sheet.
The only part of that set that you're missing is the display base for the, which was a blue platform with a light blue grid pattern on it, with a small God Phoenix on a mounting stand that attached to the back part of the base. The base was a limited edition mail in giveaway item.
Lawsons did release a Dr. Nambu figure as part of a separate set of figures in the "Lawsons & Gatchaman Collaboration Campaign." That was a set of six figures; the five Ninja Team members and Dr. Nambu. It's easy to distinguish between the two sets because the six figures from this campaign did not come mounted on a base, like those seen on the 8 figures you have.
And, in case anyone cares, here's what that "G" base looks like with the five figures that were made for it.
These figures and base were part of a mail-in campaign for people who bought the Gatchaman DVDs released by DeAgostini. DeAgostini brought out all three Gatchaman series in 68 volumes, and at periodic points during the release, you could mail in the proof of purchases from a given chunk of the DVDs and receive part of this set; Ken and the base came first, Jun and Jinpei came second, and Joe and Ryu came third. It was a clever way to try to keep you buying all 68 volumes as they came out.

Hola James!
Thank you so so much for the info. I've seen Nambu and I truly thought it was part of that small collection. What I will do, it's to look for the base that you mention. Hopefully I can get it soon..... Sounds cool!
Appreciate your comments!

Hi all!
You can see a picture of the base on this Japanese fan page for these figures.

James kindly pointed out the stand to me when it came up for sale. I'd never have known that was what it was!
