I haven't seen this movie. It would be cool if Mantango attacked some hippies but they ate him and had alien visions.

Should be the other way around cuz hippies will 'smoke' them mushrooms good.

I love how the tops of their heads echo the Mutant Chaos and Dokugons.
I have the third from the left and others not pictured.
They are so cool at standard size.

RE: M1 Matangos Winu wrote: I love the one with the Pink head. The one with the pink head I got on this board from jl (thanks). It's GID vinyl and was specially made for Unnon/ X-Beams store opening from what I gather. The paint job is pretty sick and after seeing it glow last night I think the pink and green paint are also GID. kidclam wrote: yeah love these guys. still chasing down the customs. I think Pickleloaf is selling a M1 Matango custom by Shapeshifter right now in the For Sale section. I'd buy it but I'm after some other things at the moment and have spent too much money lately. 
Standard size Matangos are the way to go IMO. Everyone needs a big mushroom floating around on their kaiju shelves. And definitely watch the 1963 movie...classic!
