 Re: Gargamel Appreciation & Collections
Nice score, Jay! Isn't that S7 Members Zag the lowest run production Zag? Seems like someone told me there were less than 20. Beautiful early Zag.

 Re: Gargamel Appreciation & Collections
Thanks so much! I dont know about the exact numbers of how many of these were made, but this Subber Zag is one of the most elusive from the first time I started collecting sufubi. I love how the basic colors work together.

 Re: Gargamel Appreciation & Collections
I think it was 75 of the Hawaii S7 exclusive and 15 of the subscriber version. Same goes for the S7 flat-faced Hedos.

 Re: Gargamel Appreciation & Collections
if I'm looking at the correct one, that looks like Koji Harmon's work.

 Re: Gargamel Appreciation & Collections
You know, I was gonna guess that because it reminded me of this Koji custom, but I wasn't sure.

 Re: Gargamel Appreciation & Collections
It's the same color as the bop dragon. But, it was painted on one of the blue blanks that they produced for the customs contest a few years ago. you cant really tell unless you turn him so that you can see the color on the inside. I know somebody has the full sized version of him, which i am very jealous of. The red one with googly eyes is also a koji custom from his LB's he did about 5 years ago.

 Re: Gargamel Appreciation & Collections
I love how the red Koji one is sort of the Pigmon to the Garamon right in front of it.

 Re: Gargamel Appreciation & Collections
^^ No "Pink" Balloon my friend. Both garamon. (Pigmon came later and reused the same red suit as garamon.)

 Re: Gargamel Appreciation & Collections
Oh, I always wondered that. So the pink is only Pigmon if he has the balloon?

 Re: Gargamel Appreciation & Collections
There's other differences but here's some info: from an ultraman site.
Pigmon is known for being created from a reused Garamon suit from Ultra Q, making them look nearly identical. Usually to differentiate from the two monsters, most marketing groups attach the pink balloon that Pigmon was shot at in his original appearance. It could be theorized that Pigmon was exposed to the magnetic ray that Garamon feed off of.

bryce_r wrote: It could be theorized that Pigmon was exposed to the magnetic ray that Garamon feed off of. That's an awfully generous rationalization.  But it's a much nicer idea than the plain fact that the Garamon suit from Ultra Q was re-used for (the much smaller critter) Pigimon in Ultraman. It's been a long time since I've seen the episode but if I recall correctly, the Science Team "tagged" Pigimon with the balloon to help track him (advanced science!) ... and the poor fellow was later killed by Redking. Someone correct me if I my memory mis-serves...
