Isn't it Kaiju Coup vs Coop? I believe Coop has made a statement saying he is definitely not involved...
Yea but it has nothing to do with Shig or COOP for that matter, and it shouldnt be advertised with a Nag which is where any potential hype is generating from because of the similarities between the two.. It even has a butthole just like a Nag. Plus its $250, WTF is that?..thats insane. I wanna know who Kaiju Coup is.
That was my point. Nag is all hype. It amuses the hell out of me someone would bite it and use it for hype. I don't want either and the prices on both are insane, but funny to me. Aren't they all ripping Kozik? All his toys had butt holes.
Ahh I gotcha I see what you're saying.. I agree the hype is out of control with the prices the way they are. Not much we can do about that though, if someone wants to pay $250 for this thing be my guest. I will never enter a lottery for one of these toys.
LOL, just making sure.... People keep asking, but from my killer detective skills, it seems Mr Kaiju Coup is in the same thread. btw, I only quoted myself once, I'm not that vain
I've talked to bbb before and after he made that post and I don't think he's him. I asked him if he was him after that post and he said no, but it could be a trick
This seems to have all teh makings of the original Nag thread - cries of hype and whatever. Difference is that despite all the board-generated hype from both the lovers AND the haters - Nags are a great toy (see earlier posts in teh locked NNN thread for a fair few descriptions why from me - I'm not going to waste my time or yours by repeating them here - those who own a NAG know)..... but this isn't. I'm shocked Medicom picked up on this. Maybe it will turn out to be a dream episode.
I usually agree with you whole heartedly on most toys, but on the Nags I can't even begin to see it being a toy, let alone great.
Haha - fair enough. I'm not desperate to convince people otherwise - but I have a fair few toys, and when I look at my shelves my eyes come to rest in lots of places...and some more than others. I love everything I have displayed (if I dont its in a box in the garage, or somewhere - but definitely not displayed as space is tight). Highlights for me when I stare around are things like Zags, Gogas, Cococrocs, SB Fights and Nags. My nag shelf just makes me smile - so many great textures and paint applications. As for being a toy - I took the Raw Power Nag out with me one day - and just carried him around and took him into stores I frequent and gave him to folk to check out - I even got a pic of him with Henry Rollins - and people were stoked. That day he was funner than any other Jp vinyl I own and more of a toy. And super poseable too - he had his photo taken with a bunch of folk at their request But yeah - I know u like some rad stuff , a lot of stuff we intersect on for sure - and Nags maybe an aquired taste...but I have to admit to the opposite reaction to you - in that I find it surprising that some folk who like some pretty creepy and primitive toys, don't like this one. I keep thinking its more the peripheral noise surrounding the toy rather than a true dislike of the toy itself. But hey, each to their own. We cant like everything - and thats fine. One mans (raw) meat is another mans poison
I do know that he has discontinued his resin releases and that a medicom/KC vinyl lottery release is planned in October, priced at 200 +shipping. I have an in with the guy i.e. I just emailed him and asked.
I don't mean to derail this thread and the mighty kaiju dog thing , I mean what says kaiju more than a dog, but these just showed up on the jobsite and I thought all us block heads would appreciate. Irregular faced concrete retaining wall blocks! That's right, irregular faced! 3 different patterns!
