    Congratulations on your new Kuso, @treblekicker . I’m excited to get mine in hand soon.

    You know, I like the unpainted version as much as I do the Rampage collab. Kusogon is one of those sculpts that doesn’t need a paint job to look complete. It’s well rounded that way :) . He looks just as good blank as he does when painted up, imo.

    "Episode 12 of Ultraseven was banned in Japan because it offended hibakusha (victims of the atomic bombings) due to the design of the Alien Spell, with resembles an atom bomb survivor, complete with keloid scars. Hibakusha are subject to terrible discrimination in Japan and the episode was regarded to be in poor taste. It had the reason the a young girl suspected the atomic war on Alien Spell's description at the moment she was reading the picture book of Kaiju and explained her father, which enraged him and he managed to report Tsuburaya Productions for the removal. However, the episode was shown in the TNT English dub. The episode was omitted when the show was released on DVD and Blu-ray in the United States."

    Not impossible to find in a scrappy transfer, but hit me up for a copy if your initial diggings don't lead to joy.

    Here is the weird dubbed version of the episode that's in a playlist I use on YouTube. Honestly makes it a bit more surreal. It just... starts. No intro.
