Ed Sandford began Robot-Japan back in 1996 as a paper newsletter, and went on to be one of the heavy hitters in the Japanese toy collecting scene. Recently Ed decided to "get out of the game" so to speak and sell his 16 year collections at auction. We talked with Ed to find out what made him decide to sell.

The Ed Sandford Collection will be up for auction September 13, 2012 via http://www.morphyauctions.com
