damn, that pink/purple one is fire. Since I'm not big on paint jobs, I totally get behind marbled vinyl. It's a great time to be broke
All 3 are awesome but really will rely on the marbling being good, especially on the "face" for these.
I agree. Marbled vinyl is the worst IMO. Totally takes away from the sculpt, and just makes everything look like your in some hippies acid flashback house with melted candles everywhere. Then again I never got this whole Pushead thing either. He ruins toys, again just my opinion.
I think marbling can be excellent... but mostly when it's subtle and/or doesn't interfere with overall visual appreciation of the sculpt. The particular purple and grey ones used for the shot here are both great; if ever you needed a perfect example of marbling making a toy look like utter unintelligible shit, you have it in the orange one.
agreed. the face is a whirlwhind of blurry nothingness. I'm a rube, but are there different pouring techniques that create different marbling effects?
No idea about the Maza, but it sounds like the Fancy Train sets ( from the pre-order way back in September ) are about to start landing Shipping notices have been emailed to Japanese buyers ...but nothing here yet

After I paid I got the following email: "Hello, Thank you for the payment. I will ship in December～January. Please wait." So hopefully soon.
Can someone remember, how the 2 baragon battle sets were released? (Open-) Preorder? Lottery? Any idea how many of these were made?
Open pre-order. There was probably a production limit. But over all during the time of sales for both sales stated pre-order with orders taken chronological.
Weirdly zollmen ignored my emails, and follow- up email, for the marbled Maza pre-order. So if anyone gets one and, yknow, isn't feeling it, lmk. These were awesome in my book. Can't wait to see how they turn out.
