    Hey Jackie, it's made by M1. I like the M1 sculpt a little better than the Marmit but they're both cool. I have a green/gold/silver Marmit. Which color did you get?

    Paul, you laid hands on a lowly un-painted lucky bag Matango, and resurrected it as a V-Color soaked masterpiece!

    I remain your humble Kaiju apostle.

    That is really nice work! Did you use an airbrush for all of it?

    Update: Thanks to the fine folks working for the USPS I will never get to see this Matango face to face. The idiots delivered it to someone else and it is gone. I hope they are enjoying it. Always get insurance kids. I will from now on. Fuck you USPS.

    You have no idea how crappy I feel.

    I feel like my head is about to burst.

    I went into my local office after work and raised a BIG shit.

    They don't take ANY responsibility for their fuck ups.


    From now on I'm reccomending insurance and tracking.


    The USPS cannot be trusted to do their job.

    Simple as that.

    damn that sucks
    i've had problems with usps for a few things
    the biggest one was when i tried to insure a broken toy to send it back to the store
    and they told me i couldn't insure it because it was already broken
    it went round and round for a while
    and i had to take it somewhere else and send it, basically lieing that it was ok

    Update #2: After a month, the person who received my package finally decided to turn it in. I thought I would never see the Matango but it's now in my hands. This thing looks even better in person. Thanks to Paul for the great job. :D
