 Greenmons
I don't have enough Greenmons toys yet to make for an impressive showing, but a helpful fellow RFSO member recently encouraged me to show what I've collected so far, so here goes. All I have are some minis but until I have some more to show, please feel free to post pictures of your own Greenmons toys in this thread.
I'm fascinated by this figure but don't remember seeing the Ultraman episode(s) in which he fights our hero. shibby says the battle is awesome, so at some point I'll have to track it down. Big thanks to S7 and the the RFSO members who helped me find these.

Thank you for the correction Bryan, I appreciate it. I was going by my receipt when I should have asked for help translating the stamp instead. I'll correct the error.

I think the poor dear has caulfilower head!  No wonder Matango makes "eyes" at her, hm.

Me too, for its overall strangeness and the wing-like appendage. The head articulation moves in a clockwise/counterclockwise motion rather than the usual y-axis torque.

xoconostle, I think you will be impressed when you get a standard size M1GO Greenmons. There's a glow one, and two done in the colors of the Bullmark Hedorah (original and Hawaii). It's a kick-ass figure, even if it has no legs.

Hah! I'm sure you're right Roger. I just bought the full-sized green on eBay and will probably pick up the GID soon. I wish I could remember where I saw pictures of some others that were beautifully painted with metallics radiating from the center. At the time my interest level wasn't such that I made a note of the maker. But yeah ... the full M1s are a great sculpt. I like how the left arm turns down.

I just got a full size M1 GID Greemon last week. Highly recommended! That green looks very tempting - you just can't beat M1 paintjobs.

Here is a shot of the M1 GID full size version. It is one of the first M1 GID figures I got and still one of my favorites.

This pic and all the large toys starting to be made has really got me thinking about how cool it would be to have these sizes out in my garden and outdoor sculpture in general. My Papa always had gnomes trolls mushrooms witches cats allsorts throughout his winding gardens. It was great fun for my brother and I and my cousins and friends together. He also painted really brightly coloured paintings sometimes of elf troll like things. He really understood fantasy and we appreciated it as children I still do.

What a great idea. Of course, garden kaiju would have to be made of something other than vinyl, but why not spread a few plaster or marble Matangos and Greenmons and what-have-you throughout a garden?
