    Its just because its new. It'll settle down. It was already down from the previous auction.

    He's a Japanese/Cholo Rap artist who's recently bought some Bemon. The one after that was 2k, but these prices are pretty normal for a particular group of toymakers.

    He hasn’t recently bought Bemon and he’s not a cholo. In addition to his role in Blasphemy Boyz, he’s one half of K.V.L.T., an independent clothing company that also prints Honda’s Bemon merch, as well as a longstanding friend of Honda’s. He doesn’t buy any Bemon, it’s all gifted to him, which is why he posts so many rarities or unreleased blanks.

    Didn’t know only one of those three Bemon toys each existed, therefore couldn’t possibly warrant any other assumption other than Prince Jose’s some newjack spending thousands on YAJ. Also didn’t know tan Dickies and gang signs solely indicated someone’s a cholo, or trying to be. Thank you for educating me.

    You're acting like cholo is a dirty word.
    Next time Prince Jose come's up in conversation, I'll make sure to have the person asking message you;
    since you're writing his book.

    I’m half Mexican, grew up in South Phoenix, as a lil’ chavalito, but you tried. Thanks for more additional information I’m already well aware of. I’ll let you know when it’s published.

    That’s what happens when you’re gone for so long. Now you know.

    @michael - Excellent collection. Love the matte colors on the sea monster on the light blue vinyl.

    Old pic of quite possibly my favorite version of the Kougai. I was fortunate enough to own it for awhile but traded it away a few years ago. A mistake that still haunts me

    I have the blank of that one absolutely love it, but seeing that paint makes me itchy--and of course, I could only keep one :lol:

    Been a longing time since I posted on here. Wondering if anyone has any info on this kougai that was just in YJA (that I won first Bemon piece!)

    I found this old mandarake listing that seems to be the same one?
    https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order...t&sort=price&keyword=Bemon&lang=en&deviceId=1

    Scrolling through this entire thread I found this post from 2010 that looked similar (middle one) by jcat.

    Last thing was an even older picture posted but it wasn’t the posters collection. Surprised I could even see the picture being photobucket.

    Anyone know if it’s a FP? Customs? Seems like there is more than one in this color scheme since the dots on his right eye look like they are in slightly different places but it is hard for me to tell. If anyone has any insight it’d be very appreciated. Looking forward to adding him to the collection.

    A nicely documented merch sheet was sold alongside a 1-off HP on YJA today. I'm sure it's floating around in the annals of SB somewhere but here it is for posterity. Love it so much.

    @xSuicide Squadx just you wait…

    This is the first “mass-production type” Kougai from October 2, 2006. It was released alongside the one to the right of it at Super Festival 40.
