    I'm not sure on the release, The photo is just the proto/test pull...

    It's funny because I wasn't always amazed as I am now by the henshin, but it's a lot different when you one in your hand...

    Now this feels exciting...

    Am I the only one thinking this would be better done as a standard size? Gargamel have such talented sculptors but almost all of their output is in minis.

    As long as its in line with the other gargamel figures of this style I'd be happy.
    Though the bread tag is a weird face.
    lol

    Oh ya.. I really like this. I'm into the size as well. I like the simpler sculpts in the small sizes.
    Anyone know if this one is referencing a character or old figure or an original character?

    Kiyoka says this is a Gargamel produced figure, an original character for a comedian I believe. I had a chance to see this in the clear pulled vinyl and a peachy colored vinyl. This figure is larger than the dokouroman size, about 5.5 inches, and a bit wider. The figure has lots of bread, butter knife and even toast lever references embedded slightly all over...the bread tag face rocks!

    I believe this will be a release on the character owner's website.

    Cool !

    Bread man and new head/figs?
    This was lifted from flickr.
    Not sure what's going on with the astro mu/le merde body things but they look pretty cool.

    ^^I like those heads way more than the megalith head. Hopefully we'll hear more about them soon.

    That bread man is awesome. Are they released at all yet? While I'm not a fan of the Le Merde body myself, it definitely grows on you when its wearing an astro mu head!

    Credit to angelabby for the pic.
    That new Capsule Robo head looks pretty good.
    Add on the gun and saber this is a whole new toy.
    Definitely looking forward to it.

    Oh hey, I didn't know you were on this board, I love your flickr pictures! Welcome!

    I like the heads and think they work with a body I'd generally not be interested in.

    I didn't even recconize that figure with the new head, so much better. No a dig on Merde, but this head just works better.

    I would go for both, love the GID.

    ^ yeah, thought so too.

    Wish that the arms weren't on steroids.

    Still, killer head sculpt. Want!

    Love those new heads but find the raygun and saber a little awkward.
    I could always just stick them on another toy they look better with. :)
