    So let me get this straight the eyes actually move? Bizarre. Really surprised more people haven't posted pics. Surely you and Maxaltoman can't be the only ones here that nabbed one. I've done massive net searching for just pics even and have yielded nothing. Looks like even the flippers are keeping theirs :|

    Is Demeking or whatever a Zollmen figure or is there something I'm missing or unaware of or what? I'm not into it anyway, but noticed it at Garimpo and didn't see anything else on it.

    Ah, ok, cool. I saw it and didn't get into it but wasn't sure if it was Zollmen or what.

    This is actually something I would really like to have. It's a great combo of some classic kaiju that works so well.

    Sorta namegon, guilala and definitely bulton for a shell. The neck and arms articulation look really interesting.
    I think the shell can be separated? Might be a surprise there. And judging at the price should have an omake?

    First time I've seen the full sculpt, albeit tiny, and it looks great. Can't wait for some larger images to show up.

    Re: Zollmen Database- updated 8/22/10

    i think the higher price point may have something to do with licensing/copyright...did anybody save a screengrab from garimpo??

    there was a "(C)" copyright with katakana/kanji near the top of the page...

    maybe zollmen could only do a small one-off run,,hence the higher price..

    i am still hopeful that there will be a good omake regardless..

    Based upon the leaked picture I am guessing that the omake is a extra head.

    Re: Zollmen Database- updated 8/22/10

    it turns out the copyright is for some form of licensing/royalties agreement..

    i was told from a friend,,"the demeking figure is not an original figure by zollmen. it is a character from demeking the movie which in turn is based on a comic by imashiro takashi"

    after some google-image searches,,i only came up with a t-shirt design,,does anybody know the character's name??

    [​IMG]

    here is hoping it is a royalties agreement not a one-off licensing,,,would like to see more versions of this!!

    I don't mind it at all.
    I like this one more than the Maza.
    Unfortunately, I lost the lottery! :(

    omake means gift, so to increase the price to include one would be a bit rude of them :)

    we need more toys with ball joints!

    Gorgeous. The ball-jointed neck is amazing, and the figure looks great. I want to see how big one of these is on a shelf.
