The whole undead/creepy thing isn't really for me. Give me more tentacles, innards, clear or colourful, Tokusatsu. Even playful. I have enough skulls and don't desire to live in a crypt and date Morticia.
Oh and blood is played out too unfortunately. I liked the occasional blood spattered SB but somewhere along the line, lack of imagination or whatever, it got overdone. The new Damn comes to mind along with others.
Back to this, I can't remember if this is was originally a new sculpt or based on an older kaiju figure? I thought I remembered seeing a coloured header card with the figure somewhere.

Yeah it's from an old card from what I've gathered. Looks like the 2nd arms are exohead's addition though. I like the black unpainted the best so far.

I believe their are going to be three colorways. One of them will be a lotto piece. Which I think has the best color (cool purple eyes)
Pickleloaf, hope you secure one on your Birthday!

Yeah, I saw those. They look good; a little pricey, though. Almost double the price of a Man Machine, seems like.

Very pricey, but I'd like to have one just to pair him up with my grodnoid (man-machine) figure.

Wow these big fellas are really stunning! On one hand they seem like such a drastic departure in scale compared to the other Exohead figures and they overpower them. Then on the other, it's a good contrast. Oh hell, I'm just trying to talk myself out of em when I know I can't!

What I didn't catch on the site was how many of each were being released/sold.?
The first small Garimpo Galtan was limited to 35.

I did the same. It's the next morning and no email. I was dreading having to get one in the aftermarket, prices are more than likely going o be insane,
