    I'm hoping these come out as a set...otherwise that Dempagon might be a pain to get! I'm pretty much a Longneck junkie at this point, so I've gotta shoot for all three!

    Is Bemon the new Blobpus with this release rate?

    I should have seen that Demp-a-gon coming.

    Serious? He's been cranking those things out lately, I can hardly keep up! My Ver. 3.0 just came in the mail yesterday (he rules!!!) and the 4.0 and Panda versions are scheduled for August/September. Plus he's been putting out uncolored versions (2.5 / 1.9) at cons, as well. And these guys ain't cheap!

    I think these may just be test paints and be changed once released. At least that's what I gather from the translation. I really like these as well.

    Okay. Someone clear this up. I thought Longneck was also Bemon guy.
    Or so I read somewhere.

    i heard this as well. the same guy does both works. that longneck was his own creations, and the bemon line is classic/obscure monsters from (un)pop culture of yester-year...

    The guy who is behind Longneck sells Bemons but is different to teh Bemon guy. The Bemon guy is a punk rock dude, while teh Longneck dude is the silent dude who sells his shit at toy shows and runs Cosmo Knight Alpha - or so I thought. Dempa seems to be very much following the Bauer release pattern.

    Warning: Conclusion Jump: Hey if this is a set - I would be up for splitting it as long as I get teh Dempa.

    By the way, was it just me that didn't dig the King Joe Dempa colorway?

    What's the back story for the "King Joe" Dempa--i have this version but doesn't have a clue as to why it was a "King Joe" Dempa. Was it a tribute to a ruthless Kaiju King? :)

    I thought it was a U-tom colorway - the grey one, right? If anyone isn't digging that one and wants to sell it, let me know.

    I was underwhelmed by it and liked the Panda one more (that other people seem to hate).

    I like this Smogon tribute, but enough is enough for me. I'm up to five of these sculpts. Besides the Hukkokudo Smogons are about the same size and I have those orange ones to do battle against the Dempagons. That's my logic to ignoring these.

    I liked teh Panda a lot too - form the pics I saw anyway - the colorway really suits the scuplt IMO.

    How could anyone hate the Pandagon? I really like the King Joe one, as well, but seriously... nothing can compete with the panda!

    I only love the first version and the Frankenruge tribute, I have none, the others are OK but not for the cost so I've passed. Wish I was online the day those first 2 dropped for pre-sale though.
