    I think these guys are coming from Tokyo Cube, not Toy Tokyo. Thankfully they're not DXes... my wallet is still reeling from those Emerald Bloods!

    That blue one looks a lot like the Hydrous(?) and the GID one--while I am a sucker for all things GID--is looking just a tad too similar to the one I just bought in SD. I mean, I'll always take note of a Dokugan release, but these are a bit lackluster for me.

    I definitely agree that a Dokugan to match this year's SDCC Blob would be earth shattering. The marble-y GID vinyl with the neon guts...freakin amazing.

    Well, to be clear, they both are GID...according to the website anyway. Love the Hydrous scheme.

    So, not to sound too dumb, but I'm not sure how the "release date" thing works for toys, as I usually get my shit from Y!J, Super7 preorders, or the Sale board here. Does that mean they go on sale on the 27th? I certainly hope so because they're both listed as sold out on the website.

    Totally gonna reneg on the 'meh' I gave the hydrous. The photos on the website complete a picture of that fig that those promo shots don't do justice. Nice price, too.

    Sanjeev: I'd imagine that yes, at 9 JST on the 25th (what is that PST?) they'll just 'be' 'for sale' and sell out immediately. Good hunting!

    Why does the picture say Aug. 27th, and the order page say Aug. 25th?

    Btw, don't forget that we're a day behind... whatever day it actually is.

    One of the nice things about everyone using v-color hues is that sometimes you get unintended (?) almost-matches.

    the blue one though nice is too much of a hydrous copy...one of my fav's. I wouldve liked to see something a little more original.

    Thanks!

    TC listings say 25 of the Blue and 35 of the Green 'worldwide' - Whichever though, isn't the 20-40 range about the average size for a lot of the Dokugan runs anyway?

    I like the silver toes on the Blue.

    I think most runs of this figure are no bigger than 30-40.

    No, 9 am Japan time. I think you're like 11 hours 'ahead' and one day back.
