    Flatwoods Invasion (?)
    So, I've now seen references to the Flatwoods Invasion thing in Phoenix on the flickr sites and/or blogs of PK, DrilOne, and MONSTREHERO but I haven't seen anything on SB.

    I don't want to link directly to those since their not mine but if anyone has stuff they feel like posting - more info, photos, stories, whatever - I feel like listening :)

    I'm kind of fascinated by the Flatwoods Monster & Mothman lately.

    This isn't mine either but I will post it cause you've got to start somewhere. From SpankyStokes...

    And those blanks are GID, right?
    That Chroma treatment is going to look nice w/ the lights off!

    I don't think those blanks are resin.... GID vinyl right? Should this be moved to American Idols?

    You're right - I thought they were resin but on re-reading they're described as vinyl. I have no issue with it being moved wherever.

    The twigs on it are great. Metal? Clay?

    They are actually from a certain piece of krap that can't be named.

    These look incredible! Does anyone have any pictures of the Flatty next to other figures so I can envision scale? That Horvath Flatwoods with the Flatty is almost TOO cool that it makes me want to start buying all the Flattys and the older kfgu Flatwoods MOnsters!

    (This is my first post- I've been reading and lurking for a few months and finally decided to register. Thanks for all the info guys-or gals.)

    Welcome to the board!

    They list them as 3" on the site but I can't find a ruler at the moment to confirm. S7 Milton is a little taller, Gargamel Crouching Deathra/Zag is about the right scale.

    It's more a squishy figure than Japanese Soft Vinyl. GID on the blanks is pretty bright - how its painted will obviously affect that on finished versions.

    Flatty is about 3.25" tall and glows like mad.
    Looking forward to the show this weekend..

    A brilliant hybrid and use of parts. Well done Kirkland.
