wow, that miborah is so damn good. I never thought of miborahs having a cat shaped face, but he kinda does. I would be all over that one if I could attend. Gargamel steps it up yet again.
That show looks phenomenal. The metallic paint apps are looking incredible as well. That Garudan is still #1 on my hit list though. The clear with guts versions look great but I love the simplicity of the solid color vinyl with metallic paint apps.
Those orange tiger stripe paint versions are fantastic. I'm hoping there are even more sculpts painted that way.
Ooooooooooh fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..............TIGER STRIPES FTW! Man. Just...MAN!
i prefer the mono (grey/black) tiger striped dethra but both are unreal. if its guts were GID that be an amazing effect!
Tiger Deathra is my new unobtainable grail. Kaiju Korner has a lot of great pictures up from the show now, came to check the thread after seeing them.
That umanosuke ueda large keshi is available in other colors http://store.shopping.yahoo.co.jp/fatmo ... ko002.html
The anatomy illustration style ones are awesome... Solid paint with just some sections exposing the vinyl/paper inserts underneath!!
Pictures may be posted elsewhere of these and the rest, but I thought I'd focus on these here since its something new. Several small pieces have been cut out of the Miborah. They were placed in a small zip lock bag so you could apply them if you wanted:
Seems like it's just a way of showing the details/paint apps on the inserts without being obstructed by the details of the clear vinyl.. Kind of cool! First time I saw a photo I thought I had to ask if it was broken
Isn't it just inspired by the kaiju anatomy drawings? I've seen Yamobazookas and Eyezons similarly cut Spoiler
I get that, especially with the big reveal sections like on the Zag, but the Miborah looks like it has these tiny cutouts. Maybe I'm misinterpreting the photos. Anyways, interesting new direction. Still not sold on the new winged sculpt though.
The kiyoka x chanman zag is not cut out. They are actually masked painted to reveal part if the guts. The miboras on the other hand are precisely cut at areas he designed. Was talking a bit to kiyoka about these cut out miboras. He first experimented on the red eye mibora with center eye cut out a little like battle scars. He likes the direction and effect and decided to make the other one with blue eyes though it took quite some time and effort. These looks great in person as the scaly surface works well with the cut up. I particularly like the little details like the cut horn on the red eye piece. I was expecting quite a few more figures from kiyoka but there wasn't that many. Nice show overall and was great catching up with friends! How i miss thrashout.
