That... I have to agree that the splatter on this looks exactly like those Japanese traiditional art... very un-walder and Its growing on me...
Thanks for the heads up on the live YJA auction. Here's links listing all the kind things said about these type of posts. viewtopic.php?f=31&t=26304 viewtopic.php?f=31&t=23234
These are so awesome! Best colorway for sure. Does anyone have pics of the bling version? Anyone lucky enough to score one?
Oh man. I didn't know about the bling version. If I get that one, I'll prolly trade for the regular or splatter version.
Got the regular also. Its a nice variety of vinyl colors and paints. Was hoping for a splattered or blinged version but still very happy with the purchase.
No bling, but I am glad I got the regular & not the splatter. Also managed to snag a gid dragon skullbrain - I thought those were all gone.
maybe its the lighting but besides the splatter, does the variant have a much softer white and less accents then the regular version? I like the splatter ok, but much prefer the regular as I feel the colorway was perfect and did not need anymore added to it... now it just looks a little too busy and you really lose the dynamics of the color and accents on the mask. Compare:
There is no black spray on the mask, at least in those shots, probably because it would dillute the splatter. I'm glad I didn't buy one now, I'd freak out if I didn't have all three versions. I could live without the FC ones, but not regular releases. The two pumpkin masks took me so long to get both.
the regular version is better than the splatter one imo definitely the best one out of the bunch so far
I think there are def. color differences....alone the eyes of the regular one are painted with a black/dark brown color that is missing(or not painted) on the splatter one..... also like the regular one better- a MUST HAVE ! but I think if you have the regular one, you also NEED the splatter one
Yeah there's zero black spray on the mask of the splatter versions . . . they've just thrown the black on instead. I realised SB completism was futile a couple of years back so definitely don't need the splatter or the bling (or the splatter/bling combo if one exists) . . . I would like another cool variation soon though . . . the Pumpkin-mask is throwing the shelf symmetry for a loop!
I'm off for my showdown with Parcelfarce this evening, I have a thing or 8 to say to them, and I fully intend to walk away with at least 2 new additions to my collection. One of which being a DBM, I really like this guy, can't wait! If any one is having shelf symmetry issues, I can watch over your pumpkin mask for a while
Got the regular version yesterday, looks awesome. Seems like the horns protruding from the bag were standard on these.
My horns weren't sticking out, just a bit bent, nothing some heat couldn't take care of.... But, may I present to you...... Bada - BLING!!!! I really like him! Waaaaay cooler in person, esp the way the light reflects off the eyes, quite transfixing to be honest. oh yeah, so is everyone's bag different? Overall, this guy kicks some serious ass!
