Post Charactics can do no wrong
New mini Hedorah arrived today and I couldn't wait to pair him up with the big guy.

Charactics - you are loved.

Jealous :cry:
I've got a load of Hedorahs coming my way by mail right now, but none of them will be paired up with a matching larger or smaller counterpart :(

Wasn't that strong on the charactics stuff till I saw this photo; really cool in sculpt, paint and photo.

Only 10 more to get caught up!

If you thought you were addidicted before, Charactics minis open up a new realm of obsession.

Alex I'm quite afraid of this! :( I've always been curious about the charactics matangos (of course) and the hedorah minis but never pulled the trigger on any purchases till 2 weeks ago (got a pink matango mini). Now I think I'm a day late an dollar short to the party because these little ones are getting harder an harder to find. Matango's- I've already convinced myself I'll probably never come across more than 2 or 3 of those...

On the bright side they take up way less space than standards!

No, we don't need any more competition for these :twisted: ! I've been searching for a matango, a hedorah, and a couple gezoras for years now.

I don't have a lot but these are awesome. I love the mini gezoras. I know there's a brown one but I don't care for it because it reminds me of a poopsicle.

Last one I am looking for is the one on the left:

I don't know if there's any recent ones lately. Last one I got was grey pink/red one.

As far as I can recall, the last two were the Rumble Monsters releases- the two on the right in the middle row.

Really a great toy. I think the GID Gezora was my first JP vinyl toy... so many years ago.

I only have a couple of the mid-size Hedo's, but boy do I love mine. I would love to have more, for sure. Charactics is a word I drop into the search engine on eBay every single day, many times a day in hopes to snag other figs I would love to own. Thanks for resurrecting this thread

Sad they went out of business. Their minis along with Butanohana, and plover's pics really got me thinking small ain't so bad. Here are some pics from long ago in my favorites (from the Charactics Shop):

Click and save! Thanks for the posting those... not much in the way of a Charactics database out there except for that old article in Kai-Zine.

Reminds me that I need to get back to work on tracking down the Biollantes.

That little Goji is wonderful, Yuck!!!. I can't add to the collection shots but I can certainly weigh in with some appreciation. Another one of those companies that I've forced myself to steer clear of - if I pick up one I'm going to end up scrambling for them all!

Those shop photos are great!
Hadn't seen the Dennis ones before.
It's a real shame they closed up.

Here's some old pics of my Matango line-up...
