Show your Sunguts

Call me a deviant but I have crushes on the Suikos. Seen the dimensions and plenty of pics but they're usually isolated. Anyone have pictures showing them next to other figures to give a feel for relative size and volume?

While I don't have crushes on the other Sunguts Honpo figures, I do like them quite a bit - so if anyone has any pictures they'd like to share that would be awesome as well.

For example, the Encylopedia of Kaiju states Buhibuhi Kaiju Kerabus (the porpupine pig looking guy) can stick his tongue out and Kimoagure Kaiju Seruloan changes expressions when his head is reversed. I'd like to see that stuff.

Thanks!

 

The long Sunguts entry in the Enclyclopedia really impressed me and made me appreciate the sculpts more, but I only have one Sunguts figure (a metallic green/yellow dino guy with the long tail) and I was really turned off by the sloppy paintwork and terrible cheap feeling vinyl. It's really thin and light and has a funky surface texture, and even for only being $30 it made me sad.

 

Sunguts at Spring Design Festa 2009

 

I know, great entry. I also enjoyed the Pico Pico one where he says he likes soft vinyl because he can play with them in the sandbox and the bathtub and he wants to lick them all over. I always refrain but every time I'm in a museum/gallery I feel like I want to touch and lick the paintings/sculptures to fully experience them. Sunguts & Pico sound like they'd get along well. Alice has a great write up on Pico Pico.

Your comments on the paintwork and the feel make me sad too.

 

Thanks Onwi! So cute. I like your (what I assume is a) custom yellow paint one. What's it say across her face?

What are the button/scales on the head and back supposed to be? Anyone know?

So, they look to be about the size and volume of the Gargamel mini Zokkis. How do they feel in the hand in comparison?

 

A shell, like a turtle.

She is supposed to be a Kappa, a type of Yokai that is associated with water and sexuality.

 

"In The Yellow"

It, and the standing one with eyebrows, are both from the Subcarism show.

 

Thanks - interesting information. I need to catch up on my Japanese myth/folklore.

 

Sunguts x Dead Presidents

 

I recognize that guy on the left, it's the Great Turd of Asakusa!

 

I dig them from afar. This Beta Seijin is my only Sunguts.
I like is dumbass look.

 

Those are awesome.

I like the Necoco as well but haven't had the chance to pick any up yet. Wish I would have seen some as US show exclusives as well as the Suiko. I'll get around to it but that would've made it less work.

 

yes, love how that was brought into the head design

thanks! double punch/ningyoushi just had a great show featuring a bunch of suiko figures - and check lulubell, they've been offering a great sunguts selection

 

^ . . ^
Good one ! Bang

 

That whole "Beta" glow series done with Grumble Toy is fucking amazing. Unfortunately, I only have a few of them (Betakong, Betagess, Betazaurus, and Camguts). Still need that Betaseijin, Betadoron, and Betagon. They're all so fucking good!

Meanwhile, I just picked up this gid Kitaro from Sunguts (I think!):

...for which I fully blame Ed!

 

Oh, wow! I've noticed your avatar but had no idea that was Sunguts. I like the crystal fist.

What's his name? How big? 7-8"? GID?

 

I like the simplicity.

From the Encylopedia of Kaiju: Beta Seijin - "A goofy alien who makes many invasion plans but even with help can't come up with a good strategy."

Maybe that explains the dumbass look

 

I only know it as the Caveman and 7-8" sounds right. This one is GID and it's not a crystal fist, he's holding a club.
