Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 2/24/10 Yes, that is very nice. I actually didn't like it unpainted. But this is a whole other story.
Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 2/24/10 Some recent scores. Here's a mini Dagigon unpainted black. Third unpainted of Dagigon I've seen. Is there any unpainted mini Zags? Anyone? And last year's Tetsujin28. Siccaluna's sculpting and painting skills are just amazing.
Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 2/24/10 Great scores Choon. Everytime I see ANY version of a SK T-28 it reminds me of how much I want one of those boxed versions they had for sale many moons ago. Never see those come up anymore
Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 2/24/10 Thanks, Chris. Saw a boxed version on YJA. Went for 38500yen Ridiculous. Mine's the bag/header version. I think the boxed version has the same exact figure and was a run of 100. I guess the box-art makes it cool. There was one at Mandarake going for 15,000yen, but its gone. Retail were 10,500yen when first released.
Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 2/24/10 A bit too anime punk for me ... Or Possibly based on Any member of Discharge, GBH or English Dogs (in their underpants) backstage circa 1982? Oi oi.
Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 2/24/10 i think so too although i must say the black one looks damn good.
Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 2/24/10 I like this figure posed and with profile shots showing its sides..similar to the photo shot of the unpainted white 2 pages back. Shik loves spikes, I love this figure. How tall is this figure by the way?
Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 2/24/10 Actually Choon the version I'm talking about is the one that came with the stand: This is the best one, not that yours is not really cool (it is), it's just the one I most regret not pursuing!
Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 2/24/10 Yeah this was the first one they put out. I want to say in 2009 or 2010 maybe? They put it out in this color, blue or silver. Was really pricey. I think at the time close to $175-$200 at least. Came in a wooden box. EDIT: found the thread we both were in Choon! (LOL), too many toys to remember we talked about it before my friend: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=32748&hilit=+shikaruna+t+28+ So yeah it was 2009. Unfortunately I no longer have the photobucket account to recall the pics maybe someone else saved them?
Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 2/24/10 Speaking of T-28's, I really like the Black Tetsujin-28 Shikaruna put out in November. 10 made seems like it's still available on their site for those interested:
Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 2/24/10 Some pics of the black T-28. Black is really hard to photograph without glares and noise. Sorry for the crap pics (there is another in mail day thread): While it's not the Giant M1 Tetsujin-28 Brown version I desire so much it's still a fun toy. A little smaller than I thought but still nice. 9 points of articulation, some where you least expect (one of the wrists and the entire waist swivels). Actually maybe 7 points if you don't consider the jet pack tanks in the back.
Not sure? I'd be the wrong person to ask though since I had that communication fiasco with them two years ago. Try the general contact email and see what happens, never hurts.
whoa, that's the first orange bodied mixed i've seen. i have a dark green body on mine. i've also seen a couple with gray bodies. nice score!
Redhanded your mixed part looks awesome. Here's the 1 I got. I saw another 1 that is almost identical to it. I think my favorites are the clear grey and light green. I'm still surprised Grumbletoy has these bags in stock.
