Hey I got word today we will be getting these two new real heads. Not sure of the name of the new figure yet. I saw it in japan, pretty nuts. The head is connected to the chest piece. please email/PM me if you want to reserve one. Probably will be here in a month.
Some info here: http://64.233.179.104/translate_c?hl=en ... s.sblo.jp/ With the google translator on, seems to say the new guy is Ogan Bat. ?

Argh. That's kinda disappointing, maybe a cost cutting function? Though the look of the figure is growing on me with this new photo.
just got off the phone with mori. looks like start of december release on these. new chaos is called "ogan bat chaos". I think it means organ or guts.
Datadub called it "Organ" in his pics from Wonderfest or whatever you guys went to no to long ago.......
The head and the torso are one solid piece designed to slipped over a "standard" mutant body. Organ Bat is most likely Chaos" nemisis - he is character No 3 from Mutant ZOne Series 2
"Ogan Bat" is really close to "Ogon Bat" (which is sometimes misspelled "ogan"). Is there any possible connection between the old Japanese animated and live action TV shows Ogon Bat and this new Chaos, or do the names just happen to be really similar? Apart from the sort of orange/goldly color of the new Chaos, I am not really seeing any connections between the "phantoma" and the new figure. Also, the translated blurb above with the "story" of "Ogan Bat" doesn't fit the description of Ogon Bat, the hero. So probably, it is just that the names are real close, but not intended to be the same character. Here's a couple links to Ogon Bat pages: http://home.alphalink.com.au/~roglen/phantoma.htm http://www.internationalhero.co.uk/o/ogonbat.htm Here is a Tim Biskup interpretation of Ogon Bat:
I guess based on your link Geo it is also called Golden Bat. I found these 2 on ebay from a Japanese seller. http://cgi.ebay.com/LIBERTY-PLANET-STAT ... dZViewItem http://cgi.ebay.com/BILLIKEN-TIN-GOLDEN ... dZViewItem
