Marmit Vinyl Paradise "Drox" マーミット ドロックス

Drox was from the live action "Space Giants" TV series that aired in the U.S. during the '60s. Drox first appeared in Episode 19. (Show was known as Ambassador Magma in Japan.) More info on the show here.

Figure first issued in 1996. It was issued in two colorways: brown and blue. I believe the one I have is the blue colorway.

Kind of looks like a simplified version of an upright Shikaruna Siberian Iron Beast. Like it though....

It is a nice figure. It has lots of different shapes and and contrasting textures - and the paint on the head is really well done.

I love everything from Space Giants! The show has some of my favorite kaiju. Great shots of Drox Geo!

Yeah, if I come across one of the VP line that I don't have, I usually try to grab it. Over time I have found that it is hard to go wrong with them.

This is interesting, I really love the body, but I dont really like the transition from grainy body to smooth head. Overall I dig this, I just wish it had a more crude texture to the head. The body seems to have a similar texture to some of the older Goji's, I really like it.
