...and I can not lie. Finally decided to post a few shots of my lone detolf. Kinda crowded but I refuse to get another one.....gotta save my $$$ for more toys! Enjoy y'all. Here's my establishing shot: (crappy and dark as it is) Penthouse shot: 3rd Floor and very smoggy: 2nd Floor and SRO: and Parking Below for the rest:
Your polka dot and Orange Bemon's are sick, and so is the purpely one, and the fried egg eyes one! They are all sick!
absolutely awesome! Is that red and orange zag on the top shelf a custom (I'm assuming so but it's a near perfect rendition of a factory paint job). I love the Super7 subscriber only Zag - and to think I passed up ordering one of those because I wasn't into Zags at the time. Oh, what might have been . . . .
Thanks everyone for all the nice comments! I got bitten by the bug after I first bought one of Kozik's HP zags and haven't been the same since. Little did I know the harder stuff it would lead to! That's a Koji custom from the Kaiju Kollision show. It's incredible! and you are correct about the paint job, it's flawless. I also love the way it seems to be day-glow and also glow-in-dark! At least, it seems to always glow day or night. That's funny you described that Bemon that way.... I also call it the "fried eggs" bemon.
That big Pupshaw is insane. Like Balkin said, I think this is the second or third one that I've seen in a collection. And the black spotted Bemon is unusual too. Cool.
Great Zag collection!!! ooooohhh Bronze Kaws Pushead I hope you were you able to score one or both of the limited orange (painted/unpainted) Zags that Kaiju-Taro was offering?
Amazing! Probably one of the most "valuable" detolfs I've seen! Both monetarily and aesthetically! I didn't know that big Pupshaw existed . I thought at first that it was an original piece made out of wood or something...very cool. Any more details on him?
Luckily started collecting the bulk of my collection before they became so damn hard to get and also have had great dealings with rockin' board members! oh, and late night yja hunts! The giant pups were made to order--- Strangeco distributed them: http://www.strangeco.com/blogs/news/0409/pupshaw.html Presspop made them: http://www.presspop.com/shop/jim_woodring/img/ppdollpress.jpg I can't remember the number that were ultimately made (maybe 100?) but for some reason you never see them for sale. (I guess the majority are in the hands of ppl who don't want to let em go!) The guy I got this from made me jump through a series of hoops to buy it from him... I'm thinking he was having second thoughts. Damn, if I'd just gotten on the pre-order list when they first came out it would've saved me a ton of headaches!!! They do have a couple of production flaws: tails are heavy and tend to droop ~~ mine wasn't that bad but I keep a stack of books under them, just in case. Also, there is an oily substance that is secreted from it's belly ~~ I just wipe it down once in awhile, no biggie.... his awesome-ness more than outweighs his minor flaws. And just think, it's like having a pet without the need for those pesky walks and stinky cleanup!
