    Thanks! The more the merrier. I just kept thinking today, wouldn't it be nice if there was a collective set of Shikaruna photos on Flickr? Doh! Why not do a photo group?

    You're too fast. I was going to add some of my photos, and they were already requested.

    I think I may start a flickr group for Dream Rocket stuff. I like this idea- it complements the database thread.

    makes sense to me!
    I'm going to be taking pictures of the rest of my shikaruna this week so there will be more.
    One thing that's been on my mind lately..maybe you would know...do bagun and desura have the same origin or tributes?

    Hahaha no way I was going to do a Shikaruna group without asking for some of your pics Daniel. You're the one who got me going with pics of the Garumega to begin with.

    Unless a bunch of those 12 are minis or you're not getting them EMS the shipping cost must be incredible.

    I swear there are 3, but no one believes me about the 3rd one.

    But yeah, there are only 2 normal release Garumegas.

    i am dreading asking for my invoice because i use moj (mail order japan) and they have a system where say, you put $200 in your account and that gives you $400 buying power....i've put at least $600-700 in and so have aquired an equal amount of spending cash....they dont settle out their fees and the shipping untill after so,, i'm guessing i'm looking at a balance owed of maybe $900-1000. that's gonna hurt bad! so if you see me crying, take heart, it means my moj box is on the way! :D :( :D :( :?

    oh and it's a mixed bag of shiks, i think i have only two or three large models coming, the rest are minis plus four large galtans and a couple other various pieces

    Great idea, I'll be sure to add some shots after my Celga box arrives... and I get a decent camera.

    I believe you Daniel. I swear there is a third Garumega out there. I used to have a pic but I'll be damned if I can find it. It had brown paint in it maybe?

    Thanks guys for posting Shik pics to the group. Krudler I know you have some dope one off dororus and baguns coming to you, Playdoughpunk welcome back, looking forward to your pics. Everyone else thank you for posting as I never tire of looking at Shikaruna.

    Thanks for your support of my Mulder-esque ranting. I still have the pic, which was taken from K-T's flickr set:

    [​IMG]

    I just don't know whether it was sold or used only for display purposes. If anyone has one, I would trade big for it.

    Speaking of mystery items... I wonder what happened to Mr. Bander. A painted version was displayed right next to the Chiwos (see the leg?) at the show.

    Both look great. That garumega looks huge from that angle. I know they are fairly large but it looks massive.

    Thanks for digging up both of these visual gems, i hadn't seen them previously.
    They sure like to paint a lot of one-off's i wouldn't be surprised if the Garumega was one of them, I wish i knew something about it.
    The Bander is great!....it looks as mean as all of their other sculpts.
