    The paint looks a little to detailed/model kit for my tastes...Still love the sculpt!

    I jumped on it, and the last TE x Medicom Pollution Monster offered up. Target Earth has been on a tear, with the 2-headed figure and these guys. And if the rumors I hear about future TE x Medicom offerings are true, I think this is going to be a very good year for TE fans.

    medicom is making some nice sofubis of late.
    the sumoga is not bad looking but bear model's vintage series #1 darth vader takes the cake for me :)

    This is not ALF.

    Sense it's not a Alf toy I'm hoping it's a T-Rex or some kind of Dino Carnivore. I'd love if Target Earth made so plain old Dinosaurs.

    I like the looks of that already. TE is so rock solid.

    Looks like that 2nd Gebora is being made. Years ago I would have been all over it, but my collection has evolved to the point where it would not really fit in now. Still like it though:

    I like the sculpt but the paint on these looks really flat.

    I really love these sculpts, they are much better than versions put out by other companies. TE can't really go wrong. But I do agree something is just a bit off with the colours on these, somehow the paint seams a bit heavy and too light, but I think that that is just because these are the production stock photos. I think once the figures come out, they are going to look much nicer in person.

    Keep in mind, on all of these pollution monster pre-orders you are seeing the painted clay proto. It's not actually vinyl, which might explain why it's a little flatter.

    I like the brown Soutou Genjin as well! But I wish that the bludgeon would be in some other color. Looks too much like Mr Hankey now.

    I love the piece, and I'm so glad TE is doing it. I do agree about the color though. Reminds me a bit of Boss Moss from Freakies Cereal.

    ...JUST ordered the 'Sotogenjin (B.C version)'.

    * SCULPT = LOVE... 2 heads. Check. Different exspressions. Check. Accessory. Check.

    * PAINT = i give 7.5/10, i like it, don't love it. Would have liked some use of darker colours, + some blood splatter. BUT that's just me.

    ...it will be my 1st Target Earth piece and i am psyched!

    Gotta be honest...........that's cool. I like his "80's Yuppie" style. Pink shirt, khakis, monster head.

    He'd look good hanging with a Marmit transforming Matango.

    Interesting. Is this just like the GID Mecha Kong release where there is the normal GID and a secret version also? Not really a fan of the character but the glow versions give it a ghostly life that makes them more appealing.

    Yes, indeed, after purchasing the 'normal' GID, I received an email offering me the 'secret' version as well, which I immediately purchased, sight unseen.
    I love these blood freak turkey monsters. Heck, I'm hooked on most everything Target Earth has been putting out in recent months.
