    The paint and sculpt of those legs is very cool. Not a bad piece at all.

    There's two of these dudes in booschwobe's collection pictures here:

    That is the original Marmit release of Gammons/Gammonsu the eye kaiju from Giant Robo. It is still a little challenging to find, especially still in bag and header. The 2 in my collection are recent re-releases by Marmit with a slightly different paint job and a mini Spider fig. If you have a chance to pick up one of these original Marmits at a decent price, I'd suggest you jump on it.

    When it comes to eye kaiju, I still like the Barom 1 Rainbow version better IMO

    Yep, Completely different kaiju but each equally cool. Must see the respective episodes to fully appreciate the significance. I'm just glad that vinyls were produced for both of them!
