    yawsome.

    hone borg would look sooo bad-ass kabuki-style! fingers crossed.

    It seems that Evil's kumadori indicates that he's a passionate, and maybe cruel guy.

    from a website:
    Deep red on a white face
    used more frequently than any other and it expresses, anger, indignation, or rage mixed with cruelty. It can also represent characters with forceful personalities who have good qualities

    That is one cool looking evil. I definitely wouldn't mind a few kabuki related releases.

    This might be my first RxH purchase in a very long time, and I don't even like the Evil that much.

    I'm really liking this one, but I just dropped a bunch of money on other stuff, so I'm going to have to hold off on it... :?

    i love the red/orange body and the killer spray on the chest and arms...
    the face paint and masked parts kill it for me though. a bit busy indeed

    true without those elements it wouldn't be kabuki. just sayin

    I would love an unpainted version of this figure.

    This is a weird one, seems like something that would generally be a custom or 1-off. I like the feel overall in that sense, it stands out so much and doesn't seem gaudy in an annoying way since it's a cultural reference vs. just some crazy paint application. I also like the application of both freehand and masked sprays working together. I mean, we've seen that before, but not in this way.

    I'm with useless toys on this, I WANT it, but just spread myself a little too thin lately and have to wait. I like it, just not enough to go balls out right now. Hope it's still around from someone in about a week.

    Same here as well. The color fence me off from pulling the trigger. :)

    I got one of these guys today and I havent bought an evil for a long time. I'm more of a chaos fan, but wow, this colorway blew me away. The only hesitation . . . is its got orange and glow. Orange and glow are my least favorite colors for a sculpt. BUT, this is still a very rad piece. Incredible.

    Whoa, glow? The head is glow? It looks milky white to me in that shot.

    No, the head doesn't glow.

    I think kabuki maybe more appealing to local japanese then fans outside japan who are more obsessed with painting techniques these days. Or maybe hesitating as RxHs seem to consistently fall below retail and can pick it up for cheap later on.

    Whatever, this Kabuki evil is beautiful. it is ironic that it is far easier for me to get it off lulubell then rxh store itself.

    Good, the head doesn't glow. I like white bettah. Hoping for a chaos in a kabuki style - but with blues blacks and yellows or whatever. Just not orange. Also hoping the evil is more red than orange. But, I do have some orange toys I love. Its just they remind me of halloween too much.

    ha, your'e right; it totally looks like candy corn kabuki style.
