    Did anyone eho was at the Super Fest notice more than one version of the "I Bleed Black"S&W Gomilla? some photos on YJA are either showing different versions or the effects of some very weird lighting in the picture. Some verification or denial from eyewitnesses would be helpful.

    i'm really disappointed that the gomillas seem so abundant in number and colorways and the chicken fever figs have been so hard to get.

    sorry, a slight diversion from the topic, but was just thinking when i read the post..

    I definitely hear where you're coming from there Jackie. Sub par response from Japanese collectors for the Chicken Fever and Keep Money figures maybe? Hopefully selling out the S7 Fever in an hour or so will convince them to put out some new ones. Some of the more recent Gomillas aren't as wild as they could be either.

    That being said, I personally prefer the black, pink, blue to the florescents.

    I too was wondering about the potential difference between black figures though. I picked up the pink and black, but don't expect to see them anytime soon so I can't be of any help. :(

    One of the pictures looked a bit more black, another more blue. Yet another looked almost maroon. Could be lighting, could be variants.

    I agree. It does seem to be the case with the darker coloured Gomillas.

    Personally I prefer the Fever too and hope more of these make an appearance. I've been eyeing the Gomilla for a while though and thought that perhaps this glut on YJA would be the perfect time to make the grab.

    I too have noticed this disparity. If there were tons more chicken fever versions, I wonder if those would also seem less appealing in some way because they were really common.

    i know what you mean, but i REALLY love the figure.
    the sculpt is beyond dope.

    i love its head, the tiny teeth and huge snout. bug eyes and that rad crest.

    I second that motion. The design is one of my favorites and somehow always brings a smile to my face! ;)
