    Has the Eaton been retired by Gargamel?

    The sculpt has been M.I.A for some time and curious if good things are coming or has the Eaton become an endangered species

    I love the original with the red head and green body.
    Took me forever to find one.

    I'm with you - the only one I'd ever scoop up is the red head. I didn't realize that it was the first produced. Do they pop up less frequently due to being more limited than the others, or just more well-liked?

    I believe they were only released in Japan though I could be wrong.
    I just never see them in the after markets. Or very rarely.
    Maybe twice since the Eaton was released.

    I like the classic blue/silver, it almost sells me on this toy.

    This is just a huge assumption but I don't this so. Whenever, I look at gargamel's site and see what years the toys come out it seems like they rotate sculpts...with the exception of the zagoran that comes out rather frequently.

    It seems like when they come out with a new sculpt. They quickly come out with a few more and then it's gone for awhile. Even fight figures haven't completely been retired. I look at things like the cigarette harmman or unchi kun which were mia for awhile and returned. Or dokuroman, cumberlain etc.
    I'm sure eaton will come out again but probably with less frequency.
    It's a great sculpt. I just bought the orange head one yesterday.

    Now we're talking! Much more appealing to me now that it had intestines.
