That's a big toy for an army build. But awesome. So far, my collection of King Smogs is growing well! I should be receiving my 10th variation in the mail within a week or so. April 2017 Elegab King Smog by Doug Hardy, on Flickr[/QUOTE]
Yeah I know I'm kind of crazy for choosing the King Smog to be the one figure I'm trying to get all the variations for (I should have picked the Tunnelon or Monster Patrol Car haha) but I couldn't resist his goofy mug!
Such a beauty! I wish I could have signed up for that lottery. Being low on cash sucks balls. Small question @TattooDougHardy: as it's hard to see how the guts appears in the sculp in the pictures. Are these preferable to for example the GID trimmings in Hedoranchak? And by the way your collection of King Smog is just fantastic Doug. To say I'm jealous would be an understatement.
I think that's an apples and oranges comparison to be honest. These ones with guts (I have the pink Meteorg, purple Danchira, and this clear KS all with guts) have a really neat look to them and it doesn't add any real weight to the figure and looks really neat. The Clear Heroranchak I have that is stuffed with GID trimmings from flashing is a serious beauty but it weighs a LOT in comparison to what he figure normally would. It seems it would almost be easier to internally paint a clear figure with GID paint as a base and then do translucent paints on the outside for certain effects but that's a whole other story. I have no idea the story behind the GID stuffed one I have and am not sure if this is something the may was done as a one off or not.
As much as I worry about the plastics used for the guts degrading inside the figure, it still looks very cool.
Thank you for clearing @TattooDougHardy I'm very excited over these versions with guts and would love to owe some myself. Hopefully I'll be able to win one in the future. Here I'm hoping for a MPC with guts, that would be rad!
Man, I REALLY wanted that blank mixed parts Satan Killer. Fell asleep, and woke up 15 minutes too late. This is like the fifth year in a row I've fucked up on the Elegab store drop! Gonna have to try again next year. Congrats to everyone who scored.
Yeah that one was nuts! I've not seen mixed parts ones in the store before. I was really wanting that grey Garekyous but it sold before I could check out. I think his cart system allows multiple people to put things into their carts and whomever checks out gets the item first. :/
I overslept too! when I got around, it was well too late. I never enjoyed these stressful drops. Makes me enjoy the lotteries even more... (But then again it's easy for me to say who won them many times. I know not all are that blessed)
Slim pickings this month (I wasn't fast enough) but still glad I got this dude! Anybody else here get anything? Blank green Devil UFO by Doug Hardy, on Flickr
Its still gorgeous to look at nine the less. I hesitated to buy anything. They did have the Hedagon red painted one left over but i figured id wait till the next lotto for this month.
JUNE LOTTERY IS OVER! Winners have been notified! Here's the latest: Red Monster Patrol Car! Man, I was really wanting this guy but it was not meant to be.

Been into the new guts releases, been lucky to get them and have been enjoying them thourougly. But newest Puppet Seijin has definitely won me over and is my favorite so far guts/clear wise. He's not clear clear of course, but this green really is impressive. SIX more points to a potential Disc Kappa, so close yet so far.. View this post on Instagram
My ONLY dismay at the release of this month's MPK being in vermillion (holy shit I love it) is that I was kind of hoping we'd get a clear w/guts version of it as well. Eh, who knows, there's still time.
Yes, that would be rad and hopefully is done so. Heck each sculpt deserves a guts debut, although some working better than others. This newest red MPC is nice and while I do like it the white painted eyes kind of bother me for some reason..
July Lottery is over and winners have been notified! The Clear with Guts train is continuing at Elegab!
