    Does anyone know what the date was to buy the unpainted glow kusogon? I know I preordered that before the tekpaint but am having problems finding it in my PayPal archive.

    It seems pretty common with TE. They lagged with the 'space kaiju' and those took about 6+ months.

    Is Gebolf even produced yet? It's one of my most wanted toys and I'm not even sure of its existence, haha.

    The 'maza' looking thing? Nope.

    That's the one. I figured as much. According to a pre-order, (which I unfortunately missed out on) the projected release date was October or November, so I just wanted to make sure.

    Is this regarding the Kusogon or something else?

    I think this is in regards to the kusogons.

    I hope it's about the Gebolf / Maza looking thing. The wait time on that is comng up on one year! Order placed, paid for, and waiting with no news. I'm wondering if Pogue runs Target Earth. :lol: :?

    The wait for the kusogon is also at a year since the initial preorder. Hopefully all this stuff ships in march. Definitely the last time I ever preorder anything from TE.

    The problems with the molding have been fixed. TE will start painting. April expected releases. Yay! I'm guessing the guy facing the other direction is a omake of Dr Who for Robot Gorilla.

    That would be pretty cool especially since they really aren't in the habit of doing omakes.

    Oh, brother. I used to just want Kusogon and Gebolf, but that photo really makes me want a Robot Kong. And I don't even like monkeys!

    I heart Target Earth.

    Seeing that unpainted Gebolf has gotten me psyched all over again. Glad things are underway. Can't wait to get the finished product in hand, one of these days!

    Thanks for the timely post. I have the mecha gorilla and gebolf on pre order. I'm now tempted by Kusugon too!

    i have reconfirmed the Target Earth Products will be mailed from Japan at the end of this month. i did not provide updates that would have been private information or just useless over the past few months. sorry to all who have been waiting for the Kusogon, TBT it was in the works nearly 2 years before info was made public.

    i am honored Target Earth enjoyed Kusogon enuf to render a full size doll & even tho i inquired monthly i never asked to rush the doll out or give direction to Target Earth. Sato-san did the best he could do & after seeing big K go thru several revisions to end up with the recently shown test shots made of vinyl is as i said an honor.

    Great header design John! :D

    Looking back, I should've opted for a Blank GID as well!
