I was not able to get one of the first paint run of this colossal monster, but fortunately I still got my hands on a handpainted version by Goto-San from the last SuperFestival. And I must say I love the paint scheme even more than the first version. This is the brown & yellow spray on blue vinyl version. I am generaly not fond of dinosaur type monsters, simply because Godzilla is the king of them all, but Drazoran combines the respect for genuine Kaiju, a master-level sculpt & this paint job you marvel at on vintage pieces... I like the handpainted (not airbrushed) eye & teeth. Some say the eye-painting can change a whole figure, and this one is a proof to the theory. For size comparison, here he is with Eyezon (handpainted by Mark Nagata)
Great photo set... I just got my clear glittery Max Toy Co Club Drazoran in the mail today, and it is a phenomenal sculpt... nice and big with some serious attitude.
havingmysay : This is exactly what I meant. Drazoran is the kind of toy that divides Godzilla fans. Some don't see the interest in a monster that looks a lot like G, but at the same time Kaiju history has spawned a lot of Dinosaur like monsters. Some are either a homage, a reinterpretation or a fresh idea. I think Drazoran has the 3 of those qualities. Prometheum5 : I've got the clear with glitter too and I am not generaly too fond of unpainted toys. But it makes you focus more on the sculpt, and this toy has something to show on this matter ! Thanks to all of you for the nice comments on the photos. I tried to shoot in a very neutral way in other to show the toy as if you had it in hand. And I finaly managed to get good pics from my Eyezon too.
Plain and simple, that's the BEST Drazoran colorway I've seen yet. Damn shame I only collect glowies! Also, that Eyezon is smokin'...not bad...for a PK ripoff!
