...out some bizarro sculpts! Check out Marmit Plus for proto pics of the next kaiju to join Gablar, Bagun, Pansida & Repho: http://happy.ap.teacup.com/marmit/ Love this sculpt!
Marmit has really stepped up. They have become the major squatters on my shelves and I have 4 upcoming releases pre-ordered through S7. They have come a looong way since the days of their Vinyl Paradise figures. Don't get me wrong, I still love the crude n' clunky VPs, but their more recent stuff is amazing.
The Gear Buller has to be seen up close, such an amazing sculpt which looks great in the translucent vinyl (many sculpts get lost in the dark translucent). That's a great pic, Paul. It catches the glitter nicely. I think I scored several of the Marmits from the recent WCC and can't wait to add them to the shelves. Seriously looking forward to the Marmit Bagun. I know Shikaruna has a proto of the elephant kaiju like the Marmit one in the link above, but the sculpt from each company is different enough to make me want one from each. So much cool stuff has been released in the past few months alone!!!
Marmit has really raced to the top of my respected companies list. I think that aside from specific sculpts like Matango, co's like Marmit and M1go seem to get lost in the frenzy of all the "new" vinyl companies like SB and RH. Marmit is really stepping up and offering some really nice non traditional toys.
Will they do a painted gid of the new sculpt (and the dogu)? Seems like those always come later, when the line is starting to taper off.
Dammit Paul. I flaked on Funnyara and I know he held it for me. I wanted this piece so bad but the funds were running low. I'm really kicking myself after seeing your pics.
I just wanted to hear about you and Funnyara's adventures in Japan. Stories like that make part of the toy buying experience engrained for good.
Joel, You saddlin up for the S7 boondogle to Japan in September? Could always grab the Shinkansen and drop in on Funnyara in Osaka.... Nooch.
If i had known the pansida's eye and glitter surface would look as good as they do, i would not have passed up the pre-order.
The Pansida and Repho looks amazing. I need a second job. Too much good shit I can't afford with just the one I got now.
