    I... No, sorry, no redemption for his one. It looks like an ugly dollar store toy based on a failed Uzbek cartoon.

    I dig it. Reminds me of the crazy T&C Surf character t-shirts that everyone had when I was a kid.

    I enjoyed seeing the customs. Martin, Le Merde, cometdebris ... great stuff. I can totally see why people aren't into it but I like it. Good sculpt overall and I'm a sucker for the Brian Wilson vibe.

    Is Gargamel doing Superfestival today? I haven't seen any pics yet, preview wise.

    Their name doesn't come up on the dealer's list for superfest 62. Although they could be sharing a table with other "platform" toys.

    It's a bit of a drag, because going through the FB search box with 'Gargamel' brings up walls of Smurfs related pages. I figured that someone in this topic would be kind enough to post a link directly to their FB page.

    this is just a little search bar 101 for those that need to know, you can punch more than one word into the fucking thing to help narrow your results, wow I would have NEVER thought punching gargamel into a search bar would bring up smurfs, now I'm about to get downright archaic with you fucks, when you search gargamel type -smurfs and low and behold no fucking smurfs

    Honestly. It's not that hard. Google: Gargamel Japan
    You'll see the kanji ガーガメル for gargamel. Then in Google: ガーガメル Facebook.
    It's really not rocket science. Half of the fun in this hobby is doing your homework even if it takes awhile. ;)

    @Waiting...: No need to get so upset over it that you feel the need to swear at a stranger online. I'm not your enemy, so a little common decency would be nice. I don't see the need to be so hostile, but then again you can do what you want.

    EDIT: @bryce_r: Thanks for your help!

    I keep checking this thread hoping to see 'New Gargamel Figs!' With the shop updates & FB. I'm just really hoping we see Gargamel go back to releasing toys as regularly as they did back in 2009-2010.

    I absolutely love the Guts Deathra but the execution of them so far hasn't really done it for me like their Zag counterparts have. Anyone know of any 1 offs with a rub done for the guts yet? because in my opinion this combined with the classic sprays is just perfect!

    ^ I have this 1 by Chanmen that has a partial rub on the guts. There was 1 or 2 others by him that had a similar look. This would look awesome on any release.

    Thanks for sharing David, That red/yellow combination looks so good!

    I'll have to start transmitting psychic energy through to Gargamel and hopefully my wish comes true.
