To even take a shot at the invincible Tentakill? To shoot and not kill is to risk certain death!!!

I'm probably full of things much worse than glow bb's. I'm sure I also collect things others don't appreciate as much as I do.

I can't find any interest in this toy either...

I don't like the proportions, I don't like the cartoonish look and I can't figure out what the head looks like...

It's just annoying.

Well, Tentakill is a modeled after a cartoon, so why are you surprised it seems cartoonish?

I had trouble figuring out the head and "'eye" from pics online, but after actually having one in hand to fight with my Mechabot, the Tentakill sculpt makes perfect sense and is actually a great neo kaiju figure.

I share, at least in general, some of your "complaints" about the Tentakill with many of the so-called Kaiju figures that are "worshipped" or lauded on this website, including many of the Super7 originals that are shown here. I would prefer to keep more of an open mind on these, however, and let those who enjoy them enjoy them, rather than make negative comments about every sculpt that I personally would never collect (including many of the more cutesy, "cartoonish" Secret Base, Gargamel, Real Head, and Flynn figures).

If I posted all of my personal negative comments aboutthe various neo kaiju figures that appear on this blog, my personal post count would be stupendous (even not including the several thousands of posts that have been removed since i joined this community at virtually day one).

On the other hand, there is nothing wrong with saying that you do not like a particular figure, and everyone should feel free to do so. So have at at it! I still love my newborn soft clear purple Tentakill! There is only one left at GoHero if anyone else wants one.

Worst toy ever? Hardly, and anyone who makes this claim should have their toy collecting legitimacy clicked down at least a few hard notches.

I don't have a tentakill but have handled one, it's ok. I like the size of it, there's something about having a massive toy, it's like being a kid again where every toy feels big in your hands.

My vote for worst toy ever- Image

Sorry if it seemed aggressive or too negative, it was not my intent at all.

I perfectly respect any of the toy tastes in the world and being proud and contemplate one's items is the only thing that should matter to a collector to my mind.

I am interested in reading the arguments of the people that like this toy.

And I know you have good toy tastes Geo, no need to prove it ;)
