Here are a few of the contenders at the 2006 All Japan Show that I took. Usual disclaimers about photo quality.

The Showa is the Reserve Grand Champion and the second Kohaku is the Mature Champion.

1st shot is of the Showa from different sides.
2nd shot is when ZNA Judges use to judge at the Shinkokai.

Well all these fish are by their own right great. I think this was the Showa's first 2nd show if I am not mistaken. The other 2 Kohaks have won titles at other All-Japan's. The middle Kohak is a Rinkukai GC.

the last showa Brutuscz posted appears to be deformed. I know it's swimming and all but the body appears fairly straight yet the head is definitely deformed IMHO!
