This is not my photo, but wanted to bring this here for the attention of @ultrakaiju who has fallen head over heels in love with a certain Rat Bat Spider Crab, from the Sci-Fi/Adventure film The Angry Red Planet (1959), initially posted (as a reference!) over in the fugly thread. There. I'll crawl back into that festering cesspool now.
I haven't really been taking photos lately, since I prefer to do it outside. But I had to get one of Minira making a friend
3/4 of the pictures might now be dead, but know that we were once on the spot about all things Club Daikaiju! Nothing wrong with a timely reminder. though @C E. Good on you.
Oops! I tried searching for 'Rat Bat' but nothing showed for some reason, but of course, I should have known. Thanks @toothaction! I have a bit of reading up to do now
^ long as we're in re-run season... ... I might as well bring this old adventure from the BATTLE THREAD over here. M1 M1Go M1-Go Club Daikaiju Rat-Bat Spider RatBatSpider Reptillicus Gorgo
Got this Grape Godzilla as part of a double pack with a Red Strawberry Biollante. I really love the colors on both the figures. Here are some photos of the Goji...
OOOhh this is gorgeous. Any shots of it paired with the Biollante too? Wish I had that purpo Goj and the Pink Rose Biollante from Marmit. THAT would be a real iconic couple:
I don't know how I missed this tip/tag, but thanks @C E ! Yeah, for sure M1' RatBatSpider is a an amazing toy, and such a noble treat to fans of this film. It should really be tracked down in all of it's iterations. I have this red version - I am sure I've posted it in this thread somewheres - and really am hankering for a GID at some point as well. They actually used to be easily available, and for an almost criminally affordable price, but I think the last few years have seen the demand for them increase.
As promised, Here are a few photos of that red Biollante. This is another sculpt I wasn't crazy about until I saw it in this colorway. The red vinyl with these paint applications just works for me. Mutant strawberry creature
@grosspustule - Those figures look way more vibrant than in other pics I have seen of them. You now have me wondering if I need another Biollante/Goji pair.
If anyone is looking for a Rat-Bat-Spider, the Designer-Con exclusives are still available from Club Daikaiju, just email Jim at twozbar@gmail.com.
Such a fun and nice toy. Wonderful detail paid to the different texture/sculpting details, without being in your face. Yadokarin is great, he is a licensed character but nabs all of that amazing pachi appeal. The space station 'shell' is just such a delight. And of course the skilled M1 paint application manages to pull it all together. Nice snag!
He really is a fun one! I love the addition of the space capsule shell, and being able to remove it is really cool! I can't really think of many others that have removable parts like that (well, the Zollmen Demeking does have that cool removable shell too!) I love this orange vinyl one, but that Glow version is pretty rad too!
Has anyone else seen this before? I found it on YJA for cheap several months ago. Yes that is an actual photo with the mini.
