There was a stowaway amongst my package from Nari San this morning.. And well, a rather heartfelt reunion took place.. Spoiler View this post on Instagram
JANUARY 2018 LOTTERY IS OVER, WINNERS ARE BEING EMAILED NOW! This month we have a CLEAR PURPLE HEDORONCHAK WITH GUTS! I'm really enjoying these clear with guts versions. Bitchin' colors on this guy!

I am super liking this one, especially what seems to be a silvery or pearlescent sheen to the entire thing. I went for this one myself...

The other week there was also a new Elegab mini-movie that I didn't post as it revealed this month's figures. Enjoy!
The wax for the upcoming mini of DokuroTarou is done and being shown off https://twitter.com/elegab_jp/status/961432169838133248
Love how active Nari-sama have become in social media. Great to get glimpses into his processes. A fantastic little sculpt that I can’t wait to have in my hands. Time to start praying to the sofubi gods...
Yeah I'm hoping that the minis of the Monster Patrol Car and Dokuro Tarou are just the beginning of a trend for him! I'd love to see minis of all his kaiju.
They both look fantastic. Hopefully we can see some more coming up later on. A mini Smog King would be really cool.
FEB LOTTERY IS OVER AND WINNERS HAVE BEEN EMAILED! This month is a little bit of a smaller set: a new Kaiju Boy set of 6 figures in FLESH vinyl. Also introduced this month is a new addition to the Points system, where if you had won this set you get a header with HALF of a point. I was wondering what Nari san was going to do with the smaller figures that are coming this year and now I know. It's a good idea! Anyway...

Just arrived! Kaiju Boy 6 by Doug Hardy, on Flickr Also, two mini headers with 1/4 point on each. Looks like he's making these new headers for the upcoming minis. Kaiju Boy 6 by Doug Hardy, on Flickr
An all-new standard size Kaiju made it’s debut at this year’s Elegab gallery show and the Osaka Doki Doki Sofubi Festival, along with two new Kaiju boys...developing...
MARCH LOTTERY IS OVER people should start getting notifications later today. We have a new full-sized kaiju and this one is GREAT. Introducing NAMIRA the tsunami kaiju! This sky blue is actually the second colorway as the first was introduced at Nari-san's gallery show in Kyoto earlier this month as well as the Osaka Doki Doki Sofubi Festival. Again we have the inclusion of vehicles to show the scale of Namira and the wave details are absolutely fantastic in my opinion. This is also the first larger winged kaiju that has been released! 6 nr_055 by Doug Hardy, on Flickr nr_011 by Doug Hardy, on Flickr nr_02 by Doug Hardy, on Flickr nr_03 by Doug Hardy, on Flickr nr_04 by Doug Hardy, on Flickr Here is the first Beige release that premiered at the aforementioned shows. Apparently Nari-san forgot to take photos of it for the website and this is from Cojica Toy's feed Beige Namira by Doug Hardy, on Flickr Next we have the return of SHUTTLEGON in the classic RED style of Kaiju Past. I'm really stoked to see this release; he was the first standard size kaiju that Nari-san released. Unfortunately there is short supply of this one apparently so it'll be a rare gem to whomever wins one. sg16_051 by Doug Hardy, on Flickr sg16_01 by Doug Hardy, on Flickr sg16_02 by Doug Hardy, on Flickr sg16_031 by Doug Hardy, on Flickr sg16_04 by Doug Hardy, on Flickr Fingers crossed and good luck to all who entered! March 2018 Elegab by Doug Hardy, on Flickr ALSO: Not included in the lottery (only available at festivals so far) are two new Kaiju Boys! GOUGHON! He's the artist kaiju (like VanGough, get it? Eh? Eh?) March 2018 Kaiju Boys by Doug Hardy, on Flickr And SUNANO HEITAI... I have zero idea what it's name is referencing. March 2018 Kaiju Boys by Doug Hardy, on Flickr There have been 2 color variations of these little guys so far, each in both sky blue and beige.
I am in love with that Namira. It is so Elegab. Creative, weird yet based in reality. Hopefully I won this bad boy
I’ve got my fingers and toes crossed to receive a winning email for the lottery. I’m new to Elegab, but absolutely adore his stuff!
Namira looks fantastic and is no doubt a great new addition to the Dokuro Taro family. I can really see it becoming one of Nari-sama’s most popular sculpts. I’ve been walking around constantly nervous since the announcement of lottery. This was no doubt the one lottery this year I just couldn’t bear if I lost. Luckily I woke up 4:47 this morning to the sound of a winning email. The pictures that I’ve seen from the exhibit have been fantastic. I just hope I will one day be able to make it to one of these myself. I was well jealous of you @TattooDougHardy when you made it there last year. Last point in this wall... Good to see more people getting in on the Elegab action here on SB. The more, the merrier!
Makes two of us!!! Really happy for this after last months mishap. I wrote an email to apply for the lottery, but apparently it never got sent even, though I know I pressed send. So when the lottery ended and I didn’t get a reply I started wondering and realized my mistake. Sure you can’t win all the time, and losing is something you can live with. But to f*** it up so you’re not even in the race. That really hit me hard. Learned my lesson now and will double, even triple check that the mail really made to the sent box from here on... Makes this months victory so much sweeter!
