New Gargamel Figs!

Adam is right - thats a Medicom Mach Roid head which appears to be stuck on a garga-fight body - kinda cool actually in terms of mash-up....if thats what it is. Also if its on red vinyl thats the rare show-only version of the head, which came sealed in its own bag at some toy show or other 10 years ago (give or take). I have bothe versions of teh head at home - so would be interested to compare deatiled pics from whoever got it - in order to help properly id it.

 

logang1 you can see some close ups of the resin in my trade pics:

Do you have a pic of the other color head? I remember it going around (didn't they also do some mail order to Medicom mailing list people? I have one of the Cyclops guys that was in clear before they released the clear version, I think Takara also did that with the Ultraman Jack Henshin Cyborg mask.) but I don't think I've actually seen that one.

 

I wonder if this was an old Patchi-Summit release. G used to participate in the 2006 and prior PS.

 

Thanks for the info guys!

If it's a legit release I may have a new 'grail'! . . . If it's just a mash-up re-sealed in a 'period' bag to appear as legit, it's lame.

 

Only one way to find out! Ring ring Koji.

The body doesn't seem to match any existing G release... guess someone could have stripped and painted the red Bullmask, but that would be pretty difficult with the masked uniform.

 

Dropped him a FB message already!

 

Looks like it could just be just the black costume straight over the top of the Bullmask . . . no acetone required.

 

It looks like a standard Gargamel fight fig wearing the singlet. Masking it isn't too bad

 

So wait..is that a legitimate toy? Or a custom mashup?

 

I think that's what they're trying to find out.

 

I realize that now. Was at work/ home and skimmed through the thread..saw the picture..searched on mandarake... didn't understand what even a macha roid is/was...did a google search...got distracted and started heating up pizza....then posted.

I'm a bit slow.

 

work gets in the way

 

That's a machroid bear mask, wonder if there's a head underneath like an SB figure.

 

So Scott, did you drop some 500 yen coins in the garga gashapon machine? Good scores????

 

Let's see some pics! I want to see what Gashas I have to keep an eye out for

 

Just got word from Koji . . . fake-the -funk mash-up never released!

Was pissed . . . now glad to have missed!

 

bummer (especially for the person who bought it - assuming they were hoping it was legit). I'd like to think there's some weird oddball early stuff we don't know about.

 

It looked cool but it's too bad some trying to pawn it off as real especially with the bag and header.

 

Damn, G's always bustin' our bubbles...

Strike two, Mandarake.

 

How much was it?

 

I think 4,000 yen

 

Let me set the records straight.
While koji is right that it was never released, the lumina borg head fighter is 100% legit.
Straight from the horse's mouth, Kiyoka painted a small handful of these as presents to some medicom inner circle folks. It is no random mash-up.
Whoever got this from mandarake at this basement price got really really really lucky.

 

Thanks for digging a little deeper Joe! Back to being pissed again . . . but I'll survive!

 

Wow, Joe, you blew so many minds right now---specially the ones who collect the Fight Figs!

Without knowing if its legit or not, it looks pretty decent, and actually awesome.
