Also, remember that it's imposible to translate literally from our alphabet to japanese, so most foreign words are translated phonetically, thus the change in script but not really in sound from Goertz to Gerutsu (where in japanese the 'u' sound in those two syllables is very soft, almost 'mute').
I just don't understand why he even needs a ball and chain. Maybe a Luger, that would be more fitting.
Meh, these are ok... The more I look at them, the less attractive they become. The ball and chain is completely out of place on this toy.
These two look really good in person. The detail on the paint jobs are nuts. The black ball and chain is so shiny in person
These are fantasticlly awesome. I initially bought the beige one. Unfortunately there was a mix up in the price, so they are both still avail I think.
Thats one of the main reasons why I dont like this toy, they look like they are painted by a machine.. The paint job is way to perfect... and now that they threw the ball and chain in the mix. Im just not diggin it. But hey thats just me..
Screw paintjobs by humans that are so good they look like machines! I like them too, almost went for one but I heard about the price mixup and guess I'm glad I skipped them. They're hellbent for leather for sure though.
LOL... Dont mind me, im just in a bad mood(passing a kidney stone at the moment) plus im high as a kite from these pain killers they gave me. Are we sure these are painted by a human? All those medals and such are they hand painted with a brush? My mom always said if you dont have anything nice to say dont say anything at all. Im out..
SOB!! I feel for ya brother! That's the worst kind of pain I have ever had in my life..Hope you have some gooood pain meds.
Haha.. I just edited my thread while you were typing that. They gave me dilaudid 2mg, these are great pain meds. I think I took one to many.
Whoaa, I was on Dilaudid when they took my inguinal hernias out. The chicken strips were so good on it Try some !
It's interesting to the comments about the accessories. I mean most don't really need them other than that they might compliment or work with the toy. I mean the kougai kaiju originally had that bemon keychain thing. (seemed unnecessary for the type of creature.) RxH has been using bandanas for years. It works but there is no inherent logic behind it. If you saw a mutant x head walking down the street...he'd be pretty identifiable by his head and short jean shorts. The mask wouldn't hide much.
so what happened with the price mixup? i assume they were initially priced more reasonably? 700 is a lot. that being said they look awesome
NO SHIT?! that is one hell of a mix up! sorry to see that... I knew how stoked you were to pick that guy up. I didn't think the yen was THAT strong...
I have to say that I do like them, especially the light brown/tan one. But at $700, that is way too much. Maybe if it was doubled in size but seeing how small they are, I can't justify that amount of money.
