    I thought so too, aside from the English across the top. I probably would have purchased if it was English-free.
    With all the fire / destruction / attacks going on, it would really pop matted with a red or orange hue around it.

    Ah man, I was thinking exactly the same! Glad we're on the same page Randy. I'm not sure if it's because of the english text that takes away from Japanese feel or if it's more about the fact that wide spaced type is just poor typography imho but I definitely feel what you're saying.

    In the poster it's coming out of MechaJus arm... that's pretty cool. Will this be only available to winners of the TyrannoJu? :roll:

    negative. he will be offering "Gorilla-Ju: The Toilet Paper." Anyone who purchases the 2-ply version gets a shot at the wrecking ball Mecha-Ju. Instructions will be printed on the roll.

    I heard it will be the "cry baby" edition, he'll hand deliver it to everyone who complained enough. Nothing makes a thread better then whining. It's really the best thing for this hobby. I love this board.

    On the package of the roll? Or the cardboard inside? Because this last thing would mean I need to KEEP the toilet paper.

    Instructions will be printed one letter per sheet so you have to unravel the whole thing and you can't even use it or you will miss part of the email address/info

    I totally agree, I don't have the wahmbulance pic saved to use. It was my initial thought though.

    So I assume that's part of a new arm. I kinda wish the chain wasn't so "jewelry" ish vs. something chunky but whatever. I wonder if the head will be different too or if he'll just keep using the one he already made?

    Doesn't look as tough as the ones they use on the Bemon balls, but I still need to see some pics of it.

    The color of the vinyl is not that flattering or attractive to me either, but again, more updates might help me to decide.

    At the very least, I'm not feeling the cheap fake gold color the chain has :lol: but beggars can't be choosers.
    I obviously haven't seen the print up close, but I was under the impression that the MG2 in the art was a cyclops, unlike his variant MG head that he already produced. Is the guy in the art not a cyclops? If he has 2 eyes, I look forward to him a little less.

    I'm thinking it is a cyclops(In the poster it has one eye).

    I was thiking the same, looks like a Ilu Ilu Pepy chain, while I would have prefered to see a heavier one, similar to ones used by Bemon on his two headed giants. Having said this I'll wait to see more although the gold is already putting me off too...

    That chain is definitely to thin.
