I'm really glad I got the hookup on these new finger puppet style guys that just came out. They seem to be called Gamahaze and the Star People of M3. View this post on Instagram
Been quiet here. Time to show Elegab some love. Recent June 2016 lotteries. 1-offs originally offer from Angel Abby event. Sadly these sat in their online shop for at least a week with no interest. They have now been all bought just to be flipped.
IMO, the Tonneran, 1st in the second row, would have been my pick if I had a choice. May have been even better with different paint for the man-made parts like the cars, road and light.
Elegab really needs to promote his online store. I had no idea he had one or that these were sitting around.
I'm pretty sure those are all leftovers from the show Angel Abby did. That page also looks like their web shop.
No, Angel Abby held a event which featured Elegab 1-off exclusives that Nari-san provided. The left overs that did not sell during the event went in to Angel Abby's online shop which is the picture I showed. 8 of them are now on Mandarake.
I don't remember Nari-san advertising those one-off himself.... Too bad they did not get any takers initially, some are really impressive. I especially like the King Smog and the 3rd Garekius on the bottom line. Another good example artists can provide one-offs at reasonable prices, IF they want.
As far as I can tell, they only were advertised through a couple of IG posts - not even on AA's blog or in their news section.
The Elegab 1-off exhibition was advertised on Angel Abby's instagram and facebook pages. AA's blog and news section are pretty much useless at times for information or releases. Better to follow their instagram and facebook pages.
It was somewhat of a shame to see a number of these pop up for sale there, especially if they were one-offs, but in the end, it isn't really flipping as such in the traditional sense (I know, it is a fine line) because they are/were pretty much asking for the same price as listed. It sucks that that happened, but given what usually takes place for popular 'art toys,' these actually being amazing customs at a great price is a steal, and I hope fans of Nari-sans ended up with most of them.
That Smog King is amazing! Hope it went to a good home. Wish I had known about that sale (and actually had money right now..)
They did sell a few at the event since not all of them made it to the online shop. But they never mentioned anything about the online release after the show, I assume most people just didn't know or think about it. I happened to take a look at the shop a few hours later because I was hoping for leftovers and bought the King Smog and yellow Garekius.
Awesome news Joe. The yellow Garekiusu (with the blue and green) was my favourite of the whole show. Fortunate timing and circumstances came together for a pair of delightful toys! You must have had some good toy karma banked.
New Puppet Seijin is my 2nd fave paint app on that fig to date. Very reminiscent of Header Version Salamander Joe!
Zis one, g: ...and a great jcat snap of the same: &, oddly enough (b/c it's so outside of my usual paint-tastes, but damn if I don't love this one), here's my third place:
A great sale from Elegab online shop June 10th. Fantastic prices on everything. Past lotteries he use to also offer blank as part of the painted sales. He stopped doing that years ago. Wish he would continue with that.
Damn it.. for some reason I thought these were going to be offered as a lottery this time (or at least that's the impression I got through google translate).. congrats to everybody that managed to grab some of these!
i was on that last night had trouble checking out no international option wanted the blanks tried to trouble shoot it for a while but just gave up hahaha. he had a great price on everything !!!
failed miserably here as well but i had fun refreshing throughout the evening seeing what would sell out next
