My goodness, the Hormone Monster has so many name variations. I've seen Hormolar, Horumora, Hormoler, Hormorah... It's enough to drive you mad! Well, no matter what people call it, it's one of my favorite toy designs.
He looks incredible in that clear blue vinyl. Gives the details a wave like quality and just adds another dimension to an already pretty stunning figure.
Absolutely gorgeous. Taken from their website (and translated by Google) The link they give above is broken though and leads to a page that says "Not Found"... guess this might be a Japan-only order.
...hahaha. And i am 100% behind you. Anyone got one and wanna swap for the Blobpus GID? PM me! A man can dream!
Been waiting for the Chibi Horumora since seeing it a while back! Looking forward to getting him in the mail. Not quite for my collection but this guy is awesome too Both these are available to order now.
Those Chibi littles are so great - the features are shrunken down perfectly, and they've got just the right amount of paint to make them pop like kookoo-crazy. The kitty ghost from HTM is pretty fabulous, too. Nicely unique yet with nods to the past. It's also pleasing that it's over 9" tall but it looks like it could be a mini. edit: corrected my claim that the cat is nine feet tall.
Unfortunately you would have to get it through a buying service. ...which is why I won't be getting one, sadly.
So FYI Luke aka Grody Shogun will be painting the Francois Le Grand sculpt soonish! Stoked to see a painted version.
Looks like Jetturre x Handsome TaroM teased a new toy at Wonder Festival. Photos from @sofubimichi on Instagram. Looks like some kind of odd, crustacean-like monstrosity, but it hides a secret... ...could this be the "parent" of Hormoler?!? I'm so ridiculously curious as to what this means! Since Hormoler is technically a "hormone monster," I wonder if they are created and released by this new monster?
holy crap thats a fantastic sculpt. I really like the joints, you don't see those two often in sofubi. Let's hope lulubell caries them at some point for us U.S. folks.
New sculpt is unbelievable, I just ordered a Jetturre piece, the medicom painted version. I am going to paint over it, this is one of my all time favorite sculptors!!
The new sculpt looks more like he's eating the lil hormoler, The face and eyes are crazy kind of hidden it will all come out more once painted though.
The thing I like about jeturre sculpts is they all look so different but they all maintain a certain crude style that at least in my eyes make them so unique and interesting
"The Boston Strangler Beast, Zamushimu", (Super Festival 68 / 1st Painted ver.), by JetSome [Image from lowbrownie] I like everything about this piece, though I haven't quite decided on the face, which to me seems a bit minimally sculpted compared to the rest of the piece. Very strong design though. I'd like to see Max Toy's Zanga next to Zamushimu.
I absolutely LOVE the paint app. The "venus flytrap" on its back is great colorwise, love that fade. Now the real questions are... is the mini Hormorah an omake? Will we see it painted in the future? What's the connection between these two, if any?
