    Thanks! Can't believe there was a hundred of these made. Impressive. There's gotta be 1 out of that hundred willing to make its way to my house haha.

    Surprised at how few standard standing hedos were released. In my research I've only seen 9 different releases.

    Has anyone received their Deathra from Angel Abby?

    Paid in Feb, shipping was supposed to be in June/July and I've heard/recieved nothing.

    They posted a couple of months back that they were delayed until the fall but that’s all I’ve seen.

    I must confess, I forgot that I bought the Deathra.

    Cheers guys.

    Had this email from Angel Abby this morning, which hopefully will help anyone with the same question:

    “Because of Japan Vinyl Factory is busy.
    Gargamel Team still have not receive the vinyl base to paint.

    I think it will be more delay.

    We will update all preordered customers after we know the shipping date from Gargamel.”

    I’m happy to wait and like @akum6n I had actually forgotten about it until yesterday! When I remembered, I was just concerned that they had been sent out and mine was missing in the post.

    These were sold through Bwana's Gravy Toys site.
    Meant to have been released at GAMJAM festival, but didn't make it in time.
    Some damn fine micros.

    Is there a reason they don't do more painted micros? They look great and seem to be hot sellers. I'd love to see more.

    for me painting micros is super hard, that's why I don't do it. they used to only have painteds as chases in their gacha machines at fests. Maybe they just like keeping them rare? it seems like they had masks made for these though, so maybe we'll see more.

    side note, the hover-bikes for this release are painted on the inside except the headlights. Looks really cool in person.

    I feel like Gargamel has been tinkering with the micros for a long time and for me the addition of these bikes has really brought it all together. The most fun I've had with this hobby in the last few years has been mixing the parts of the vendors, bikes and micros together and having a few painted just makes it more fun to mix and match. I would love to see some unpainted glow vinyl for these in the next lot of lucky bags

    Not sure where to post this but holy cow there were some old school gargamel gems up on Mandarake today. I grabbed a couple things but missed on a lot. I hope some of y'all scored today.

    Is there a time that stuff typically goes up on Mandarake? There was a Fireman with mask that was gone by the time I checked yesterday.

    The dokuroman? Around anywhere from 30-60. They aren't that popular compared to other sculpts. There are definitely some diehard collectors that seek them out.

    There was so much. Even a randall, but I don't know who painted it.
