Ok im doing bigazz....and maybe a Belzor derivative next...what obscure yet insanely bitchin kaijudude do you think I should make next? a 24" fiberglass.......?
Gurion from the Gamera series with an oversized knife head with his eyes rolling up looking at his blade/head... make his sort of fat and squatty like a tiki... redhanded
Make a Belzor then make a giant Barom 1 Hand monster (the one made by Rainbow a few years ago that's now going for crazy prices), the Barom 1 mouth monster - or how about your own creation - a giant ear on two legs like the hand/mouth rainbow figures. Also good contenders would be a giant figure of the "monster" kaiju by nostalgic heroes (it looks like a barrel with a cone on top and the word "monster" written across the chest - Brian Flynn probably has a photo of it as he told me it's one of his favorites), the giant eyeball on 2 legs by Marmit, or a Kittyfire or Matango. I think this is one of the coolest ideas yet - a series of 24-30" giant kaiju in wild metallic auto paint finishes. Yeehaw!
right now i am negotiating a license for kanegon...I need to see who has the rights for those barom dudes..I like those.
my pretty ponygon.... actually its 'digital' Kanegon from Ultraman Zearth...he's got a big eyeball on his chest or an orb or something. OG kanegon is in court right now.
seems like some are sorta in limbo...but I will try to get official license whenever I can. Apparentley all the Ultra Q stuff is in stasis due to hassles between the copyright holders and the Thai company thats been making a lot of the new releases in violation of their license or something.
a bemon style pollution monster would be awesome, or a big rat fink style frankenstein. i know it's not kaiju, but i get excited and off topic when i think about frankenstein. frankenstein vs bemon FIGHT! designed in opposing fight poses. then i can set up a little 4' by 4' kaiju ring in the corner of my living room. sextastic!
my vote is for: Greenmons -ultraman http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y9HjqYJWWD0 Zazon Zazarn Zazahn - ultrajack Panderu Saijin -Captain Ultra Littra -Ultra Q
Yeah, it's a bizarre situation...Tsuburaya (the company) basically lost the right to older Ultraman (anything before Taro, including UltraQ) outside of Japan to Thai company Chaiyo, thanks to one of those "deals on a cocktail napkin" situations. It's messy.
Baltan is my favorite, but I already have one of the 24" vinyl Bandai ones that I paid like $80 for (without the box). How about a 2-piece one? Like a Chibull with a 24" head that fits onto a 24" body? I'd be more interested in something in the 48" range even if it does cost more.
