    Wow! Just wow! "You can't almost copy the toy that I already copied!" If Shig wants to be such a dildo maybe he should just crawl up his own ass,at least then he will have plenty of company to tell him how fucking great he is.

    I wonder if it's really true. I hope it's not. I would have loved one too.

    I wish that Baphomet would get made already too.

    Correct me if I'm wring, but wasn't the baphomet only a head sculpt? I'm still hella new to T.E. so I don't recall ever seeing a body for it.

    I know I'm pretty darn late to the party, but I just discovered Dokugarasu and now I have to have one. Anyone know if Target Earth still produces this toy at all, or will I have to go hunting for it? :razz:

    There are at least three versions to my knowledge -- Black / grey, brick red and clear. It has been several years since any of them have been released.

    That's a shame. :( Oh well, maybe I'll get lucky and one will find it's way to me... At least I know (from Mandarake at least) that it won't cost me an arm and a leg.

    2015 will be the 10th year for TE & I really hope to see some of Mr. Sato's unproduced sculpts finally surface.......

    HUGE THANX!!! to all the folks worldwide who have helped me build up my collection, could not have done it otherwise!!!

    I now have near 100 TE & Hukkokudo dolls so its time to find a better way to display them- my shelves are crowded!!!

    We are taking pre-orders for NYCC exclusive "TARGET EARTH THIS MAN" at booth 406!
    Secret version x 5
    Normal version x 10

    Delivery in January.

    This is a new sculpt still unknown to me but pictures will be posted here, http://sofvilife.exblog.jp/ tomorrow.

    I did some googling on "this man" and found this, but I am not sure if it has anything to do with this release;

    This Man and Plague Doctor. Kind of cool on both accounts

    This Man is a unique concept, but I don't see how the execution would be anything but meh. Plague Doctor, however, is creepy as hell and knocks it out of the park.

    Very glad to see Sato-san putting his considerable raft of talents towards original sculpts again for his TE releases.

    I dunno, I think they did a great job! :shock: He's probably one of the creepiest sculpts I've seen in a while... Though I'm sure the context adds to it, and that dang smile. What is he smiling about? I'm not sure I want to know.

    But I'm with you on the excitement about the Plague Doctor, I absolutely love anything bird-man related, whether real or fantastical! The history behind it is creepy enough, but the big blank eyes and mask make it nightmare fodder.

    ^That's actually not bad, my personal preferences just keep me from liking human characters for the most part (with the exception of just a few old costumed Japanese heroes). Great concept and certainly creepy.

    I read the evil scientist is an omake for these things.

    Hukkokudo???

    Several of these were released years ago. I wonder if they are reissues or back stock.

    Only the bird is a new pre-order. The rest were mention as old stock with only 1-3 available. The Keratozaurus were called prototype test colors.
