    Got my Dustman & Kuruma ni kurasu yesterday. They are both really great with nice variations from CCP's reissue from 2002. I love the blue color they used for Dustman's vinyl.

    Dustman has a nice shadowy rendering and funny metallic tongue. Kuruma ni kurasu has some minor paint variation.
    They also did a new header design, with some respect to the original version.

    Awesome, really nice to see the comparison shot of them side-by-side. It was hard to know the specific changes from the earlier release.

    Thanks! :)

    So, this rub and the blue one in your photos were released around the same time?

    The one you've got is last year's 40th anniversary reissue.

    The other one dates from the first masudaya reissue by CCP, back in 2001-2002. They also released the green version at the time.

    A couple of new re-issues coming from the great folks at Medicom. Really happy to see this Nezubirdon come out. Now to see about getting delivery to overseas.

    I ordered Nezubirdon. I've been after the cream for ages but the blue is not bad at all. They are delivering overseas, shipping late March. ;)

    The blue Nezu looks amazing, I'm sure you won't be disappointed. Maybe the best 40th anniversary rerelease so far with Bakura !

    Thanks for alerting this, ultrakaiju. Didn't realize that Medicom continued with more Spectreman kaijus.

    But my money went to Tiger Mask!

    Hopefully the Nezbirdon run is sizable enough to pick them up later on the 2nd market. It looks great!

    Yeah, I am happy to see these keep coming out too. The run should be a fair size I expect, I like the way Medicom is handling them, with the long pre-orders and making them [somewhat] available to folks outside Japan. So hopefully you shouldn't have too much issue. I do expect though that most of the non-Japanese fans buying are more fans though, and might hold on to them a bit longer, but ya never know.

    I still can't understand how (or why) I passed up on the earlier Dustman; well, I was saving up for a vintage one that was within my grasp for so long, and then it ended up slipping through my fingers. I'll never forgive myself for that one. Never.

    UK, the Dustman pops up for sale from time to time, usually the blue or green (CCP versions). Never can tell whay they will go for though, usually 8000 yen or under...

    I just got the 40th anniversary Medicom Bakura !
    I love how they chose a vinyl color close to the "original" design. And they colored the vein on the wings at the back for further detail.

    The new Medicom Blue Nezubirdon is the deepest blue you could possibly image. So glad I pre ordered this (pics don't do it justice):

    I was kind of hesitant to grab it because I've already got the cream colored one. With that being said, I decided to go for it since he's one of my all time favorite kaiju. I can't wait!

    That is damn awesome Lixx. I am happy that some of these made it to appreciating fans on this board. Real kaiju forever! Looks like I am SOL for my Medicom order :cry: but at least I can enjoy your great pics.

    Got mine today and just noticed mine has dark silver feet rather than gold.
    Or is it an effect of the flash on your pic ?

    Anyway, it's amazing in hand. I LOVE this blue version. Wish they had been as wild with the other releases.

    I got the gokino too and I'll try to post pics later.

    Here is mine, notice the difference on the feet (definitively not the flash). I have great difficulties getting the right blue in the photo...

    My bird's feet are not gold I think that's just the lighting in the room. It was really hard to capture the blue. It's a deep bright danish blue color.

    Nezubirdon looks really sharp in blue. Reminds me of the blue that Marusan used for some of its later unlicensed figures. Very nice.
