This cyclops is soooo bad ass. Tough to find for those of us who didn't score on the original pre-order. Cool you were able to get it 2nd hand, Chris! I saw the collections shot and it looks awesome amongst your other beasts.
Baikin do keep us posted on this one, does anyone know if any of the usual sources will have these for sale?
Supposedly these came out in the last week or so but I have not seen them in any shops. They were a limited run for a toy distributor here and it sounds like very few were made considering the popularity of this toy. So I can't be sure but it looks like these won't be popping up much if at all but you never know, every time I get any Pilot Ace info things always change.
2-horned version now available for pre-order... $160 Only 50 are being made and it sounds like this is the end of the line for Pilot Ace and Cyclops... grab it... ONLY 9 left... http://www.lulubelltoys.com/pilot-ace-x-harryhausen-cyclops-pre-order.html
Surprised no one mentioned the new Pilot Ace/Beagle Cyclops floating around on instagram? Did a company buy up the mold and get a one day license or did Beagle come back for a hot minute?
I'm guessing Detective Anthony might be our best hope for the true dirt. Didn't Mr. Pilot pass, though?
Are you talking about the WF release, Chris? If so, they seem to be done through Medicom. I am sure that it will be highly unlikely I will ever get a shot at one, but it is promising that this 'release' might mark the sign of something coming direct from them in the future.
I just looked on YJA and got closer pics of the packaging and apparently its a Medicom HxS collaboration.
Yes, I was hesitant to mention that aspect of it. Gorgeous paintjob, and the entire set is extremely lovely, but I imagine this is one of those things I'l be admiring pics of on the internet only. More classic monsters please!
Lets add a pic so people know what were talking about (oh no double horn as well!): Someone had to have bought the mold. Since the original collaborating companies are defunct.
Ooof. It hurts not having a shot at these. Beautiful set, amazing surprise. Secondary market will be a bull run but at least they are back.
Forgive me for saying , but this may just be my favorite paintjob on Cyclops. It feels so wrong to think that tho... Does anyone happen to know what Cyclops ,Ymir ,and the Dragon are priced at initially ?
