    Thank you for the picture, I was wondering how the show looked. I was hoping to send more but just so busy these days and no time for myself.

    These look really bad ass. I can't believe I missed the opening. I'm going to have to try to make it this weekend.

    Theyre beautiful in hand, it was a tough choice between them to the point i almost wished they sold em blind. My first kumon an i think my first marbled toy, ill be very happy when this comes home in a couple weeks

    This was my first Kumon, as well, though not my first marbled figure. I'm very happy with the choice I made amongst the bunch. This'll look great on the shelf when I get home tomorrow.

    ^ i wanted to get a second so icould do just that andy :)

    Before i saw these kumons and after all the meltdown vinyl at NYCC i was thinking mixed part marbled would be cool on a toy especially if there is one base color ie Black and then each part could have a diff color marbled in like one arm blue, one arm red, etc.

    I feel the exact same way. If it's two colors, mixed parts I don't mind it so much. But three or more cors, mixed, throws me off pretty heavily. I love the Kumon I picked up.

    Anyone have a picture of them all from the TAG show? More pics of the NYCC ones? I'm still confused on how those were sold or how many types there were.

    I believe Amy at lulu twitted/IG each day when they went on sale and then it was first come.

    The only ones released at the Stange Days shot at TAG were the mixed marbled black, orange & white. Blog posts about the show had pics of various tie dye kumons and a lot of us expected those random one offs but i was happily suprised with the marbled mixed parts.

    Thanks for the info! Stopped by TAG and picked mine up today. Amazingly the one I saw in the pics from the show that really appealed to me was still available. They had like 2 left I think but a bunch still there and not picked up so here are some pics of those along with details pics of mine. Quite honestly they are all amazing in person and I would have been happy with any of them!:

    Theyre all still there because at the opening TAG said we couldnt pick em till Nov 6th!! (which i understand because they wanted to keep the display intact for the run of the show) Obviously thats not the case anymore and i plan on grabbing mine tomorrow if i have time. Thanks for the great photos dokuro, one of those is mine ;)

    Dokuroking, I just noticed you got #13, my favorite number! I got #4, though I didn't even notice there were numbers until after I bought it and looked it over at the hotel.

    I was surprised to see it was #13 under the foot as I thought that one might move on number alone haha
