    Painted Yellow Lucky Bag Matango Question
    So I just scored the whole lucky bag and I was under the impression that the Matango had a signature under its foot. Ive seen many a photo with the signature but mine has nothing.



    Oh and if anyone has a black unpainted hook me up.... its the last one I need

    I could be totally off, but sometimes they have actors or actresses from the old kaiju movies at festivals where the figures are released, and a lot of times they will sign the figures if you want. Maybe there was somebody from the movie at the event and some people got their figures signed?

    I think Velocitron is right.

    The super expensive one on YJA is signed by someone, most likely by Yuji or an actor from the film.

    Mine has no signature.

    Mine also has no signature...I do remember seeing one signed; probably the same one already mentioned.

    Cool well I guess that clears it all up. thanks
    I remember talking with Kiyoka about Matango and he had mentioned somthing about a signature as well so it must be why I was fixated on it. Guess Ive been a little scared with the prices these go for of getting a bootleg.
    I think thats correct that it is most likely Yujis sig.

    I cry a little inside every time someone scores one of these. :( One less out there. Good for you though, I know you've been looking for awhile.

    How much did the Lucky bag go for if I may be so bold? Theres a seller on YJA now who "make up" Lucky Bags and charge up the Yahoo for em. Such as 2 painted woos and an unpainted and a bag for 15,000. I think that sucks ass.

    LB was about $550 +- with the conversion and shipping. I figured at about $100 each it was a good deal considering the rarity. Its a legit bag... #2/100
