Really digging that blue one. I love the head, and those rows of teeth must have been a beeatch to pull from the mold without messing up. Very cool piece.
Finally checked this thread and I really like this one. The extra teeth are pretty menacing and the sculpt is really excellent. I really like the Rangeas, it strikes me as cartoony - and that's what I like about it - but I really like the straight monster vibe from this guy, even with the doll eyes.
Who is doing these? Intheyellow? The blue looks awesome! And the skull is actually part of it as I see . . . I still do not like the scaled belly but I still want one . . . right now!
The face does resemble that poster, but lots of teeth, a skull, and those rad doll eyes. Can't wait to see one in person, or use my wife's paypal, she never checks her emails what she don't know, well she don't know
Ah, at least someone got one - I was not that lucky . I am curious to read what you think about it once you have it in hand.
Just received the black w/ silver and red Sqalone. I am still not totally convinced. Here is a short review: I really like the swirl and the head sculpt with the different rows of teeth. The expression is very nice but no comparison the Rangeas. I still don't like the scales on the stomach. Also the arms are not my thing - I would have loved some T9G trademark hands. Also, the tail has no tip which looks kind of odd and the joint between body and neck is not very smooth. All in all it is a nice toy but no new Rangeas.
Not sure if anyone checks T9G's blog or already posted this link, but there's a nice assortment of goods from a recent/upcoming (not sure which) T9G x MOGraphixx x Silas exhibition: http://museumt9g.blog24.fc2.com/blog-entry-193.html Off the topic, there are some sick 4-arm Rangeas one-offs from the show that deserve some recognition: http://museumt9g.blog24.fc2.com/blog-entry-194.html
at first glance this looks like T9Gs take on Tim Biskups Dragamel to me. This could just be because of their past together
I'd love a t9g custom, but they are pricey! Ah well, one day perhaps. And Sqalone is just not doing it for me. It's the arms, the swirl neck thing, and the scales on the stomach. Oh well.
Those customs look great. I too would love a T9G custom but he never sells internationally which is a shame . . .
That new one's probably the best looking so far, but now that someone pointed out how bed the neck joint area is, I can't stop seeing it.
^You couldn't just keep that shit to yourself ehhh, you had to go ruin it for me... Seriously now that you pointed that out... yuck... I still love both halves but... Edit, it looks great head on, and from the sides, which it how it will most likely be displayed... I'm really tired of sounding pretentious... I have to remember that I didn't make this, and for someone else to design and create a toy is awesome... Especially when they go the extra mile, and produce it in Japan...
