    Got this sucker in just earlier. I love the simplicity of the colorway. It feels like it would be one of the earlier ones, but it definitely ain't.

    Sorry for the bad cell phone pix but I'm at work and am excited that it came through. The blue is pearl shimmer to it....love it!

    it looks like they changed the eye and mouth color on this version so not a real reissue...no? plus it looks like the first version has silver spray too.

    Yes, its definitely different because of the lack of silver spray. I KNEW it looked a bit familiar!

    The mouth has a much more faint red spray, but the eyes are the same. Again, just crappy cell phone pix on my part that make the eyes look different and the mouth black.

    Its the KT-zine exclusive that just released.

    You know, I don't know if we ever confirmed that anyone actually purchased that original blue Damn... The fact of its existence is pretty much based on that photograph alone.

    According to the article in Kai-zine...
    Before the Damnedron itself was released, it was displayed at Wonderfest but was never for sale.

    ダムドロン発売前にイベント会場で展示されながらも、今まで発売されることのなかったランブルモンスターズファンには幻のブルー版ダムドロンが、満を期して怪Zine誌上限定として登場です

    So I guess that explains it. It has existed for a long time, but was just never released until now. The silver spray/lack of silver spray is probably due to the lighting of the original photo.

    Like I said, the one that was just released has a pearl-esque shimmer to the blue paint.
