Did some rearranging over the weekend. Here's some pictures of my Lupin collectibles. I would say 80% of my Lupin collection is found locally at secondhand shops. I would have more but I hate buying incomplete sets in person! Lots of sets sold here are usually missing the Jigen figures and it's expensive to import 1 figure from Japan everytime I want to compete a set.

You are assembling a band of Thieves to rob a wealthy individual who's known for their corruption and misdeeds that makes them scum of the earth. Luckily, they have their own personal bank, and you are gathering a crew for this heist. Choose from any media (Cartoon/Anime/Comics/etc.)

Your Crew consists of:

The Mastermind/Benefactor- You

Second In Command (optional)

Hacker/Tech Support

The Muscle

Getaway Driver

Thief (2 Each. If 2, pick 1 as The Distraction)

Here's the example:

Season 2 Episode 88: Lupin's South Pole-North Pole Great Adventure

such a fun, cute and feel-good episode even with the Mussolini Red Brigadeers stuff lol Zenigata is always doing the most random things

I’ve been MIA for a while bc I just got a Maltipoo👀his name is Cooper and now he’s my brother but now it’s time for a weekly Lupin glaze again.

This community is really chill, but what tapes do you have that you think our minority takes? I have two:

1. The Last Job is a top 10 TV special.

2. If Part 3 had a more consistent plot direction like part four, it would be the best anime part.

Part 2 is full of funny scenes, like this one from Episode 4. I feel so sorry for Jigen 😂 The video is made from my own copy 😉

ALL HAIL DA SILLY SAMURAI MANZZZZ

BEWAREEE OF DA ZANTETSUKENNNNN

THERE IS NOTHING IT WILL NOT CUT (well, except for da ruby ofc)

'once again, i have cut a worthless object'.

such wise words ^^

She was the dub voice actress for the young version of Clarisse in the 1992 version of Castle of Cagliostro. She is 77 years old

All three titles somewhat surprise me. The Castle of Cagliostro Steelbook was originally a Crunchyroll exclusive title. Any time Discotek prints Detective Conan media it surprises me.

I got to thinking the other day that I've been quietly collecting Lupin media over the last 4 decades, and the amount of it is comparable if not outright greater than media from other franchises like Star Wars, Marvel, DC, LOTR, Harry Potter, ect. You name it.

Given that most of my Lupin purchases have been bought solely in blind but good faith based on previous positive viewing experiences (I can't recall ever seeing an ad or trailer for new Lupin releases), it's quite remarkable I own as many media as I do. Especially in light of the fact that all the aforementioned franchises spend millions each time they release new material.

Lucky find at Walmart of all places

He probably has a cigarette hidden somewhere, even as a figure. 😎 Seriously, the craftsmanship on this piece is incredible. Just don't let him catch Lupin messing with his gear!

Screencaps shared by Discotek along with the following caption:

“The show is SD & sourced from the best quality copies possible.

Subs have been gone over.
1-79 has the beloved English dub cast that continues to dub Lupin nowadays.
145 & 155 has the classic "Lupin's Greatest Capers" dub featuring @BobBergen.

A screenshot from each disc!”

These do look pretty good for SD. Why they didn’t AstroRes these is still beyond me.

Also I would have given a lot to just have episodes 145 & 155 redone by the Epcar Crew.
