 Takogeruge and Moguraruge
There are also two variants.
It's killing me to keep up with all of these Rainbow releases.
Takogeruge - Soft Body Demon (Octopus Ruge)
Moguraruge - Earthquake Demon (Mole Ruge)

The Takogeruge is fantastic! I love the expression on his face.

The two variants have yet to be released but they are sooo good. The ocotpus is pink and the mole is more robotic looking.

The Moguraruge's belt seems to be riding kinda low.

Is it me or do those look rushed ?
Doesn't appear to be the same quality as the earlier issues.

I agree a bit on this point..I am super excited about the pink version of the Octopus demon...but the sculpt is a little suspect compared to others i have like the Mushroom or the Thorn...
the squid demon coming up looks killer...sad they didn't put the as much into the sculpting for these two...

While not my favorite pieces of the series, I like these. Recent figures like the Yagogeruge (Dragonfly) and Frankeruge didn't seem to have the quality of the first four. But I still have them. Close as I'm going to get to owning representations of these characters.

The Moguraruge looks pretty rad. My favorite Rainbow release so far.

What I'm afraid of is that they know they have a captive audience for another....what 25 of these? It would be a shame for them to start producing
inferior product only because they know they've hooked a bunch of OCD completists who'll buy it all up. Their prices aren't cheap, I really cant see paying 150 for either of those figs....try 35-65.
They might as well be dealing heroin.

were these sculpted by Dehara?  I still really like these two...or maybe it's just the header that's attached to them that makes me react this way?

I've been seeing prices of $100-110 lately for figures in this series.
Still not cheap, but also not like buying yet another RxH repetitive colourway for $$$.
