That is so awesome...thanks for posting Joe!! Nari's really tapped into making fun vinyl toys...and you can obviously tell that has fun with them too. I can't wait to get this guy!
I wasn't lucky on getting this figure in the lottery, but this elegab fig is the one that finally tipped me over into wanting to collect his sculpts. Really great stuff.
should have mine today unless the NYC post office pulls it's usual BS of "we'll deliver it on our time" which is never on time....
How can you possibly receive a figure Nari-san has just started to paint and is scheduled for shipping on the 22nd ???
So here is Elegab's next beauty ! This prototype with its oversized head is utterly amazing. It looks a lot like the monster he designed with a town on its head. And how much I love this idea !!!
He sent me my shipping notice much earlier as well... must have gotten them done sooner, or shipped them as he finished?
My apologies, I was pretty sure he announced that the items would not ship until the 22nd in his confirmation notice.
No need to apologize, that IS what he said on his site... he must have just gotten ahead of schedule.
What I really like about this sculpt is how it manages to capture the feel of his pencil drawings in three dimensions. I really dig the drawings. Wish the two from Toy Karma II had not been quite so expensive
Mori is on a major roll and I couldn't be more excited. If I am reading his blog correctly, and I quote: "Two terms are scheduled to be put on the market next month and it descends." Looks like we may not only be getting this: But also this: The mind boggles!
I just wish the production runs were a bit bigger. Or even better, a subscription where you could be sure to pick up a release.
You found the right illustration plastichunter ! This is the one I was referring to that I'd love to see a toy of :
wow, can't wait for these 2 new beauties. i would love to see the one with the town on the head done also.
I too REALLY hope he puts out the city on head guy! The new proto is looking amazing...I can't even imagine how incredible it's going to look painted up. Sigh...I'm using Goji's for temporary puppet shows until the Puppet Seijin arrives...
I like all 3, but that's the coolest of the bunch. Maybe he's saving the best for last. Rock on with the Rock Monsters.
OK ...now I don't have to use Goji's for kaiju puppet shows...PS has arrived! Oh and btw...I was able to attend one of Puppet Seijin's rare live performances and caught it on video. Visit my blog to watch it...
Very enjoyable Redyoda, I knew PS had a darkside lurking. Good thing my kids weren't around for the viewing though...it may have scared the bejeezus outta them. Probably not my boy though, he asked if my Puppet Seijin could sleep in his room tonight. Gotta start em off young ya know. That was great write up on your blog about Elegab too.
Yep, just pointy nubs...that would be my only negative critique of the toy. Ha! Thanks Leadster! I'm glad you enjoyed it! Maybe the video's not safe for the kiddies after all
Hey, now that these are arriving - just errrr.... reminding folk I would love one or both of these...so not feeling it...HIT ME UP.... --end transmission--
