The "What you just got in the Mail" Thread

Just arrived!



This must have been asked and answered elsewhere but what's the story with the gift boxes that come with some of these?

 

Wow SM. Really nice. Beautiful shot too!

OA & Lalo
Yes, that's the SDCC Killer. Not sure on the release number.

Thanks MT. Last one is a Bwana custom no#37 from last year.
Scored him off a super cool board member.
Here's some the newbies stacked.

 

The box first appeared with that version of the mini Matango.

It was supposed to be a Tiffany's colored version, so I guess the giftbox was supposed to add to that effect.

It's useless and almost doubles he price of the mini Matangos. Plus, it makes even less sense in the other colors that have come out.

I hate the box but love the mini Matangos!

 

ack!
He's so cute!!!!

 

Thanks for the info - it certainly is useless!

 

I can almost build a tiny igloo out of mine.

 

BAM! Keeping the thread shroom related.....Thanks Sir Joe!

 

What the fuck is that?!
He's wicked!

 

yamomark mushroom soop man sdcc version
aka...fucking awesome

 

That's great! saw one of these for sale a while back but never so close up. Love it!
So is it a Matango figure or just an unrelated random crazy mushroom based man?

 

Ian I think he's the latter, just an unrelated random crazy mushroom based man....

Despite my shroom tendencies I wasn't that sold on the original Mushroom Soup Man by Yamomark. I like the concept, and I think Yamomark was doing interesting designs, but the paint job didn't do anything for me. Then the Pop Soda guys got a hold of a clear version....END result: SOLD!

BTW if you're one for detail... this is the one for you. The detail of the shrooms, and the little slug on the back is great.

 

...and you've just lined yourself up to take a photo of the 'backslug' as I need to see it now !!!

Not familiar with this one at all so off to look up the original now...

 

smo9- picture of the back

 

ha ha - great shoulder snail!
I really like this - thanks for the pic

 

Sorry for the crappy kitchen counter pics, still have to move some stuff around to find a place for these guys...

 

Special Delivery:

 

Definitely one of the coolest toys at the SDCC this year.

 

Omg. Incredible!
Thanks for posting pics LIxx & pH.

 

Great pic... I'm bummed that I stalled on grabbing the Mushroom Man from S7 until it was sold out. It's so fricken cool.

 

mushroom soup man is so fucking awesome.
this version is the best i have seen yet...

 

my mom just sent me this. all the way from her jersey garden to ca.

 

Hooray for lulubell's new sale! Finally got King Heater at a price I could live with, and love him! The runaway star of the haul has to be the big Hedo tho... my first Gargamel fullsize Hedo! In clear AND orange, no less

 

Jay has got the Fever! Love that little guy!

 

me & a friend were talking about how awful the revenge of the fallen toys looked.
and we both agreed that we could never bring ourselves to buy one.....
then he sent me one in the mail for my birthday:

of all the crap in the series, this and the Jolt are the only descent ones....
