    Just wanted to post about the progress on Cestoda, here is some recent photos of the wax from Japan.

    Really excited about doing this toy, its been a monster brewing in the back of my head for years. I am teaming up with TAG to produce it, so I was able to make it the size I had in mind, hope you all enjoy!

    This is a thing of beauty! Glad I got to see the prototype at DCON last year! I cant imagine what this is going to look like with crazy paint applications!

    Kudos on this giant!

    I'm very excited, as well. Not only did I get to see this beast as a prototype at DCon, but I also got to see the wax sculpts and then some during my stay in Tokyo. The size of this monster is great. Anticipating Jeremi's paint apps on this one, big time!

    Thank You Robert, glad you were able to follow Cestoda in various stages so far! Any idea when you might get another chance to visit Japan?

    If it were up to me, I'd be leaving tomorrow. However, I'm not 100% sure when next, but hopefully sooner rather than later!

    Has a real Inhumanoids feel to it which in my opinion is a wonderful thing. I like it very much.

    ^ that's a perfect comparison. looking like their long lost cousin, he would display great along side the Inhumanoid family.

    Those are a brood of eggs on the back segments by the way, not intended to be eyeballs but I guess they could be painted that way if you wanted.

    I love its posture. Looks like it's always on the hunt for something.

    They turned out really nice Jeremi!

    I like that red vinyl you're using, really makes the details pop.

    I'm more of a fan of that gorgeous charcoal! The details on this are incredible. I would love to see some pukeish-neon green on that.

    Cestoda's backstory:

    A blue whale is found beached near Santa Monica Pier. During the necropsy a giant creature emerges from the whale carcass carrying a brood of eggs clustered on its hulking back. It can use any living thing as a host, piercing into them with its spiky tail and inserting eggs. And now it has humans for incubation vessels.

    The military step in to contain the infected zones and hunt down the rapidly growing creature. But the monster is resilient. It has large sharp claws and the glands within its tail spray a potent, foul slime that induces a paralyzing effect. Bullets pierce the creature's segmented cuticle flesh to little or no effect. The military attempt to capture it with more advanced weaponry.

    Marine biologists nickname the creature “Cestoda” as it's biological traits resemble those found in tapeworm parasites. They theorize the invasive species originated deep within the Earth and was introduced to the sea following a recent earthquake that rocked the coast of northern California. They believe the beached whales fed upon deep sea creatures that were infested with the parasite.

    While the military tracks Cestoda, scientists race to discover a solution and stop the spread of the parasite. If they fail, Earth will eventually be purged of every living creature- including mankind!

    Shameless plug -> Cestoda is currently available for pre-order until July 2nd on the TAG website too! ;)
