A couple of my favorite toys I got in 2008: hellopike custom from secret base swap the original inspiration for the zag plane, the groverplane (not to be confused with aerosmurf) and this giant dolphin has been serving me well.
With only a few days left in '08, I think its safe to say what my scores of the year were: I had been on the lookout for this since I first saw LASH paint a custom version last year. I had to pass one up in NYC in Feb... I finally got it in August. Best JJ *EVER*! Tan-Ki's awesome Mutant Chaos- So different from any of the other customs I have, I was so happy that I managed to aquire it! And finally, it arrived yesterday- Tim Biskup Handpainted Rangeas- When I first got into vinyl toys (albeit western vinyl at first) I was introduced to Tim's art, and he's still one of my my favorite "Low-brow/pop/whatever" artists out there. Rangeas is one of my favorite Kaiju, so the two combined is just awesome. I've got "The List" of artists (and some non-artists) I'd like to have something created by, and I had Tim Biskup down there- but I didn't know what my chances were considering he's a rather well known artist. But when I saw the Bispop Rangeas' I had to try to get one. And I lucked out. =) There are so many other things I could list here: Kichigai's awesome mini-zag, my first PK custom, the Skullbrain Monstens did for me... But I'm trying to keep it short. The best I could do was limit it to 3.
Lots of new (for me) Secret Base and other odds n' ends, but this is the score for me; a custom Paul Kaiju he gave to me as a kind gesture. That outweighs all the other stuff I picked up this past year. Thanks again Paul, this is a great, cherished piece for me
my favorite score of the year is this.... Such a nicely detailed chunky sculpt. and this one was in first place for a long time... Much thanks to the skullbrainer's that parted with them.
Wow i've been asking for a Gameldon/Gamerudon for awhile and got nay a response to my want list. Great score JoJo C.
Lovin' all these toys and pics. Had to post my runner up for score of the year. Just got this guy and he is cooler than I could have hoped. Makes me want to build a cardboard city for this biggun to tear the hell down. Shown with scared monkey in underpants. for some reason...
hp rebel ink! what the fuuuuuccck. not a bad score it says "3" on the tag.. does it mean he made more?
Damn that is really amazing. I guess everybodys dream of getting that in their stocking on Xmas morning has been blown out of the water.
