    first vinyl edition made in Japan
    I am very pleased to be able to offer the first Plaseebo vinyl edition to be produced in Japan. This clear vinyl edition of the "Skulloctopus From Outer Space" will debut at the "Kaiju Comrades" show opening at the Ghetto Gallery this weekend in Tokyo (*more show info at http://kaijucomrades.com/index.htm). It will be a show exclusive Ultra Limited color-way edition of ten pieces. The vinyl is breathtakingly crystal CLEAR, as can only be made in Japan.

    Three inch unpainted clear vinyl with red glass inset eyes and an internal color changing LED unit.

    Enjoy,

    Bob

    Does it have a turntable on one side and a boombox on the other or are they just random electronic parts? Great job, GID next please.

    Thank you all for your kind words. They are very much appreciated.

    I will try to answer all your questions here:

    Lash I would love to see what you can do with one of these.

    I will release an edition stateside soon. These will all be hand painted by me in smallish color-way editions. Also there are some killer collaboration editions in the works.

    I hope to be able to offer them from the Plaseebo website for $60. One of a kind customs will be more.

    The tech units on the sides are parts he salvaged from the landing craft.

    As for he Stone Walker (rock guy): I am making a few custom hand paints now in a new process, hand roto-cast urethane, ie. all the detail without the massive weight. But a vinyl edition may be possible down the line a bit.

    Enjoy,
    Bob
