Direct quote from Kiyoka of Gargamel to Brian Flynn of S7 after the new Snakes of Infinity toys were a certifiable hit with the Japanese collectors this past weekend. It was really cool to see such a genuinely warm response for these toys. It really surprised me to be terribly frank. :)

See some pics here from the "Sofubi Blog" done by KadomiumTank, the Japanese lovechild of Pickleloaf and Toybotstudios. http://pink.ap.teacup.com/kadomiumtank/

I love the facemelting surrealism in Josh's figure below, and the paint quality of the shell is amazing.

Wow that is a killer picture of the ThrashOut door with the S7 made out of the post cards!! The door was open when I got there so I didn't see it until now.

Great link.

Thank you for posting!!

That's a pic of the badass HP Shikaruna Dororo. I snagged him for a buddy (who was out of town at a wedding) who hooked me up with my holy grail earlier in the week. I was happy to return the favor.

It's about the same length as a 400% be@rbrick/kubrick. About 12 inches.

Sorry, that's the only one.

I really like the figure, though. He reminds me of the same vibe the two-headed bemon guy has. A bit of a departure from the kaiju inspired toys Shikaruna have been known for.
