    30cm or so, around 3700 yen. The measurement might be on the high side, so don't quote me.

    I really like there Ultraman and other hero figures. The proportions are just off enough to make them charm my pants off.
    It's actually 13cm.. regular Buta-sized.

    Third Ultraman if I remember correctly.
    Red/gray, blue/gray, and now this one, yes?

    There were also the ultra7 and other ultra guy sculpts as well. I feel like there may have been another red/gray other than the standard regular style one... don't know for sure though.

    That's imitation ultraman.

    Look at the eyes and the black on the chest.

    I've got a question I've been wondering about for a while and this seems like a relatively appropriate place for it.

    What's the story with the Butanohana x Gargamel Thrashman? I assume he's a bootleg Ultraman? Where'd the name come from? Any other miscellaneous information?

    Several color variations but here's one that looks most Ultraman-ish.

    and another w/ different variations

    Great eye marswillrule.
    At first I was like, "He looks angry."

    But now that you mention it, the "angry" eyes are a dead giveaway too.
    I really like this guy.

    Thrash man has always been the dshopp chafarver fo Thrash Out and has been done in several configurations and colors - this one most deftly leans to Uman. I love BHH's dudes, his Thunder Mask, his Vacuum cleaner guy and some older pachi hero stuff had assays been on my want list,
    Further out on a limb the Gargamel Shop/Studio in Koenji is call Thrash Out - perhaps a nod to the previous proprietors penchant for always playing thrash music in the store. Going out on a limb the Japanese vinyl process is called Slush molding - in romanzied japanese Slush and Thrash sound very similar.

    Cool! This is how he should look like. The previous release with Gargamel were missing the black lines.
