    I like it, definitely cranking up the creep factor!

    Love it. Single face is still the best though.

    looks like its mouth finishes at the back of his head. Also i think the white parts on the eyes should be painted to match the heads colour.

    Glad I got my last resin out first. People would have thought I pirated the wrapped around mouth.

    Sorta reminds me of Ragon? That's the first thing I thought when I saw him.

    Re: Got paranoia?

    the baby doll eyes actually make this toy a lot more tolerable.

    the creepy factor got ratcheted up a few notches. i'd take doll eyes over hair any day of the week.

    the garamon tributes continue...

    Absolutely agree. Also prefer the lay-out of the new face to the siamese version.

    i dig it, but not as much as the original sculpt. this guy looks more goofy, whereas the initial sculpt of the eyes gave him more of a I'm on pcp paranoid/confused look

    Re: Got paranoia?

    i am liking the new head,,although i think it makes the toy less creepy and more playful/goofy looking...not necessarily a bad thing,,,just different....

    can't wait to see it with some paint....

    and i foresee the new head sculpt coming with hair too (don't rule out the dolly hair quite yet :) )

    Re: Got paranoia?

    this reminds me, whatever happened to all the talk about what Shigeru's day job is? Was it ever revealed? Does he work at a baby doll manufacturer?

    I was thinking the same, maybe something more sinister?

    haha, i guess we're on the same wavelength, jeb..

    not quite. from what i've heard, he's a mortician.. think dressing and cosmetizing. whether its 100% true or pure fan folklore,, it really is all too perfect..

    Re: Got paranoia?

    Finally! I've been keeping this one a secret for a while. Shigeru emailed about this idea, I did a couple of sketches based on his first description, then he went wild! He really surpassed any thing that I drew.

    Looks cool. Wouldn't mind having a few of these, still think the original looks better though.

    Good point about the color of the eyelids. If they were the same color as the vinyl that would tie it up pretty well.

    Re: Got paranoia?

    I love how well painted the eyes are on the previous figures, but I like this new head as well. Different approach, but nice 'n' creepy (as proven w/ Marmit's large Garamon).
    (I am assuming they are not statically set and actually blink)

    Re: Got paranoia?

    I completely agree, the new head gives it a whole new personality. The round doll eyes make it appealing yet still have a creepiness and the mouth shape really makes it goofy and seem somewhat friendly.

    I wonder if there will be a Siamese version of this new head too. Six eyes and six noses, stacked!
