    WOW- so much personality, Miles; I’m not too big on hero figures, but I love this piece. Terrific expression on the human head, and I love the mutant skin detailing around the eyes. Fantastic.

    weird weird feeling to be destroying art such as miles's. but a replacement ikakumora without a broken leg is glorious.

    probably the artist requested that the piece be destroyed in order to give a replacement.

    Wow Rob, that looks painful.

    On a side note, will we be seeing anymore of these guys anytime soon. I'd love to add 1 to my collection.

    Yup I asked that he destroy it so I could recycle the number.

    There will be more Takoshi in April at TAG. Building up a supply right now :)

    Great news you will be attending Miles. The ape guy looks like a killer. This is turning out to be quite a fun filled show. Definitely will be getting one of the new Takoshi vinyls. See you in a couple of weeks.

    Great work! I am excited to see the Takoshi make it to vinyl (and I hope this bodes good news for your other figures as well :) ) Might I suggest accessories too as a possibility? I can never have enough for figures like this, especially with those hands.
