Seriously, that Dororu kicks ass. Love the rub to highlight the sculpt and then sprayed.

I'll pass on the Doro but that This Island Earth tribute Uchu-Man was just too rad to resist!

ralph, which version of the big eye do you have? Here is a pic of the Yamanaya Big Eye I have. Not trying to bash it's pre-order but I was just disappointed when I got mine in hand and it felt like a bath toy. And yes I have lots of kaiju bath toys including ships to sink. ; )

Actually, that GID Big Eye looks like an exact repro of a rare lucky bag version of Big Eye put out by Tsuburaya, I think, several years ago. Which kind of sucks for those people, like me, who paid a lot to get the lucky bag version (as I recall, I think there were 3 GID Mirrorman vinyls that were blind bagged in a lucky bag or show exclusive bag - it was pretty hard to get. The earlier Big Eyes are hard vinyl like the B-Club figures.

the new big eye looks to be the same colors as the older lottery version, but a different color pattern. on the newer one, the green spray is the same color, but different placement. here is the lottery version, image from clubtokyo.org -

 Re: NEW PRE-ORDERS - 12/26 - Shikaruana, RxH, Yamanaya
I was excited when I spotted the Dororu thumbnail, but upon closer inspection it's too Rasta-colored for me. I love the head, but I'm not at all feeling the body. But anyway, does anyone know how many pieces the New Years Dororu is limited to? I'm really feelin the Mummy Glove  and I'm not even a RxH fan

 Re: NEW PRE-ORDERS - 12/26 - Shikaruana, RxH, Yamanaya
The blue and red details on that new year's Dorol's head really stand out... the body comes across a bit more blurry though. After the handpainted 'overdose' (in a good way), i expected Shikaruna to take it slower with this specific sculpt. Guess i was wrong.
RXH's fresh Uchu-Man is a total winner! With the insect-like 'rotating' paint app on the eyes and the detailed red chest veins, i feel it's one of Mori's strongest new characters. Mummy Glove is cute too and has a lot of potential, but i'm not the world's biggest gray vinyl fan.
