    He is quite small, but strangely endearing in hand.

    I received the painted clear gray from the Cure store's closing in the mail a couple days ago, and noticed on the header card the "painted" box was checked off. There was also an "unpainted" box. Does anybody know if there was actually an unpainted clear gray that was released? If so, any photos?

    There's the unpainted fluorescent pink that was released at the same time-they may very well share the same header card... however I heard there is an unpainted black ver. but I believe it's not an official production piece.

    Yeah I saw the box that Lulu sent and was like "How did they get him in there?" But I got him out and he was tiny, but the more you look the more details like his sweater and things of that nature you notice (I got the unpainted red). Whatever happened to the the beaker in the proto?

    I got him in a giant box and was looking for ages ;)
    Yeah, no beaker :( but the details of it are very impressive, which makes sense it being Cure and all.

    The little potion bottle didn't come with either of the Lulu WonderCon exclusives... but it did come with the Cure store release. I'll post some photos when I get home from work tonight.

    :D Hate the zipper but these are nice. Very bxhish. Whoever painted the version on the left did an amazing job with the clear fades.

    The new painted one is awesome and has got me sold on the figure.

    Already picked up the WC unpainted one so I think I might as well pick up the WC painted later today even though I wasn't feeling it too much but I'm sure that'll change once I have it in hand. I love the sculpt so I think this will be the first figure I try to collect each version of...wish me luck. :mrgreen:

    I like Joe's work and even though I would never buy that figure, it is nice.

    Agreed. Joe is an amazing painter and tattoo artist. I actually spoke to him today to schedule an appointment to finish a portrait of my Boston Terrier we had started on my leg.

    I believe one of the reps from KR also goes to Hope Gallery to get tattood... and I'm sure that played a part as to where the production of this toy stemmed from.

    I like the "Cap Girls" as paintings and as the subject of tattoos... but all that aside, I'm not a big fan of this figure.

    Why is this being brought up in the Japanese Toy/ Cure section?

    Also, has anybody been having problems with their Fungahs leaning really far forward? Not all, but just one of mine leans so damn far forward that he tips with any vibration. I've hit him with the hairdryer and straightened him out, but he eventually creeps to a tilt again.
