Re: SHINTO GANGU ONLINE (Real X Head USA) NOW OPEN!
Pre-Order is a great idea but i'm wondering if it somehow diminishes the mystery and allure to the "micro-release" phenom?

It's getting 'em into the hands of International collectors without having to pay $100 a pop plus shipping from Honorius (which seems to be the only way these days), I'm all for it!

Re: SHINTO GANGU ONLINE (Real X Head USA) NOW OPEN!
LOVE this idea!!!!!!
Also this is a great flipper combattler - people are less likely to buy a high priced flipper release when it maybe re-made a few weeks later as an RxH USA on-demand release.
Would also like to see an evil or head in there - but think I will order my first full-size anyway!

I am not sure how Nate feels about it but I like it. Plus there's time to order as payday for us isn't until Friday.

Re: SHINTO GANGU ONLINE (Real X Head USA) NOW OPEN!
The 'experiment' is a fantastic idea. Though I have had enough of black vinyl for awhile. Orange is a cool color, those red releases just dropped in Japan are interesting, but it seems black is an all too common recurring theme. I am taking a wait and see approach. I for one would love to see more colors of solid opaque vinyl preferably with good sprays on them. I would love to own new release RxH's with a base of green, blue, yellow & purple vinyl ...

Re: SHINTO GANGU ONLINE (Real X Head USA) NOW OPEN!
Personally I don't get the whole "black vinyl oooooh" thing.
I get the collector perspective on respect for rarities, and if black vinyl was representative of an original test of a figure you love, makes sense to pursue. But released as black, just so, seems like buying a canvas without the painting applied.....I mean sculpts are great in and of themselves (mongolion I'm looking at you), but nothing beats the combo of great paint and great sculpt together....my 2 cents

Yes, they are on a base black vinyl but there's a whole ton of spray action going on . . . it's not like they are selling all black blanks! I even had to go back and re-check the RxH USA site because I thought you were talking about something new!

Re: SHINTO GANGU ONLINE (Real X Head USA) NOW OPEN!
Hey its just my opinion, the original RxH releases had great spray action that allowed the different colors of vinyl to shine through. Overall allot of releases even before Real Head USA was launched had allot of black vinyl going on. The last group was just such a release and I passed on it. Sure sprays cover most of the vinyls but its still black vinyl, which is clearly visible. I am done with black vinyl for the time being, I need color (not white, red, grey) - yes even in the base vinyl!
Edit/added: Sure black vinyl is great, I have plenty. The first US Pheyaos Man is over a base black vinyl and is an excellent AMAZING colorway! When you have this type of variant who cares. I just am seeing too many releases with allot of white/black, red and darker motifs, over and over and over again. I have a great ever expanding collection of RxH. Sharing an opinion, whats wrong with that?

Re: SHINTO GANGU ONLINE (Real X Head USA) NOW OPEN!
I personally love good quality black vinyl sprayed or not sprayed, Mori & company never dissapoint and the fact that Im not having to pay $100 and some dollars each on ebay from that one flipper dude everytime I want to pick up a new release is tits in my book. I hope this on demand thing will stick around, hopefully it was a huge success and there is more to come.

Re: SHINTO GANGU ONLINE (Real X Head USA) NOW OPEN!
On a funds drive (when arent I?) - dont collect adult size RxH before - but put in an order for the classic green. Found it hard to decide which to order as they are all really nice, and couldnt go for more than one. But I am extremely excited to see it in a month's time. Really hoping this is repeated with some Heads and Evils w/some of the recent unobtainable classic metallic sprays. Make it happen RXH USA!

Re: SHINTO GANGU ONLINE (Real X Head USA) NOW OPEN!
Damn, I was really hoping for a long shot on that glitter Chaos X being part of the release (even though the initial news clearly states Chaos Trooper.)
