    Angelabby raffled off 5 at the store, one seeming to be a chase, then they did another 6 via email lotto, all blind bag so not sure of actual counts on chase version.

    This is just what I've seen IG, so who knows.

    Pretty awesome lookin' one off! If it's not too much of a bother, I'd love to see more photos of the overall paint job!

    Nice pic Robert! I don't dig these toys at all, but you sure make it come to life in a big way. Excellent pics as usual. :D

    Thanks so much, Michael. I personally dig on certain painted versions quite a bit, this being one of 'em. I think they have a lot of personality in the sculpt so I'm glad I'm givin' 'em a little somethin' else. :)

    Happen to agree. I think the toy is completely contrived, over hyped, and it's something I wouldn't pay over 40 dollars for.(Even if I liked it.) I'm shocked these sell for more than Grody Shogun toys.


    However, and with that being said, you take rad photos. Keep up the good work.

    Bryce, I can honestly see both points, and very much agree they've been overhyped recently. Since I've started collecting sofubi toys, though, I very much enjoy heavily textured sculpts and/or more grotesque looking ones. I legitimately like having these guys on my shelf. And I appreciate the uplifting compliments!

    Actually warming up to certain releases of these guys, since I'm a sucker for crude sculpts.

    I wish Izumo would do a zombified Planter's Peanut homage though, complete with hat, monocle, cane. That would rock. Still totally looks like a peanut.

    When I first started collecting I remeber seeing these and not paying them much mind but now they have grown on me and more and more I look at it the more I like it!
    I read he releases blanks for these how hard is it to come across one of those :| ?

    You will have better luck finding a painted one.
    The blanks were mainly gifts or sold to select random collectors.

    Ive tried but just dont know if I can get into the Shikabane- the sculpt is so lumpy and seems rushed, tiny appendages and a huge head.... Some of the paint jobs Ive seen on these guys are pretty radical though! Im beginning to warm up to him after browsing Izu's IG feed.

    And that tshirt looks great! :D

    I thought it was pretty neat at first, but then the prices just shot up after word got out... and I don't like them THAT much. I still like him ok, and the colors are great. But peanutman NagxHead is all I see.
