^Indeed they are! This color/body combo tickles my fancy in a way few toys do. Looking forward to it!
^ i couldn't resist paying homage to the blue Garamon and i think Luke did a great job... An even more outlandish tiny feet to huge noggin ratio . So satisfied with how the balancing came out on this.
I agree! Although I enjoy this new head on the E Man body as well, it seems the mismatched proportions of the Moloch head on the Monster body really works, imo. Can't wait to play with one.
STUNNING. Yes, I very much agree, best Grody release in some time. I almost danced a jig when I saw this one.
rotofugi collab, new monsters on clear base. black & metallic version sold out... where is rotokirby to hype this release ?
Anyone have info on the Creature FTBL x Pumpkinhead x Howard The Duck wax head on Luke's Instagram? Fucking KILLER!
Are there any Karakuri releases with unpainted clear heads/bodies? Or even painted.. I love the sculpt/textures for painting, the Kaiju Korner Glowdy Kara release is one of my favorite toys ever due to the paint application...such a good use of the sculpt/texutre. It's pretty inspiring. Or Ojisan, just less interested in the Ojisan head...
clear ojis / karas were available from the shooting blanks release. there were also clear blue that came out recently.
A bit after I posted I saw the clear oji..slept before editing. and I do recall seeing some good looking blank blue somethings not too long ago. Thanks!!
Otanoshimi blind packs... What are the odd that I will get enough pieces to make anything cool (something more than a duck with a babby head) if I buy one of these packs. It's hard to tell from the pictures, but it doesn't look like one of these packs would actually make a mash-up figure.
Maybe a few small ones like you described, but not likely to get a mashup that you might see Luke put out. However, some in the past have made some great looking mashups by getting creative with all of the pieces, but you have to be willing to pull out an exacto knife and maybe some kind of adhesive to pull it off. Here's a badass piece from shankweather, but from the pics I've seen of these new bags, it will be a stretch to come close to this one...
^ Definitely some knife work involved with this one. I bought two bags so the pieces you see are a mix of those two. I already had that body and one arm. There were a few more nice pieces, including a Karakuri body in each bag, that ended up with other people. The pics of the new bags show some nice stuff but no bodies to build on.
Well that rules out what would otherwise be a great concept . I love the idea of blind boxing interchangeable parts for a toy and I'm surprised i haven't seen it done more. I wanted to make a hellbox toy too, but from what I can tell they are all sold out, but the heads.
This guy looks great! Loads of detail and very nice paint app - I was hoping for one with the mouse on the hat but I'm really pleased with this one and will just pretend the "Doom" is a shout to one of my favorite MCs More pics below Spoiler
WOWWWW!!! That is a great one. Thanks for all the pics. I slept on this and totally regret it. The details in the linework is so good.
