Its weird that it has no joints, maybe a plug for the underbelly?
Or maybe it is not even soft vinyl.

I'm perplexed, not sure what to make of it. As much as I love SVHC, I don't think I'll ever buy one. I wonder how big it is...

Hang on, is this kaiju on the IKB crouching Hedorah header? Daftnerd just sent me this post by Yoda on IG but not sure if it's the original header.

Ha! I knew someone would beat me to it!! :lol:
And yes the fact that this again comes from an IKB header is rad, I knew my indifference wouldn't last too long :oops:

Yes. That's the original header card.

Here's another image of which is really blurry which has the front and backside.

Well spotted Bryce! I have not had the chance to see one of these headers in person, and it is rare I have even seen such a close-up photo of the art. Really fantastic though, makes it even that much better.

BEMON does it again, perfect.

I'm dying to see the underside, since there are no joints the hole should be massive.

I am impressed with how different each design seems to be. 2 headed giant is my favorite but it is nice to see a consistent change up. That rainbow kougai is so nice love getting to see him 360.

The second version looks fantastic! It looks llike the side side spikes are separate. Does anyone have pictures of the bottom or the figure next to the other Bemon sculpts?

I saw a picture of the underbelly somewhere, it's an enormous gap.

Thanks Chris! I'm guessing the large opening helps with pulling the vinyl.

The second red vinyl / blue paint app version is simply gorgeous.

Would have preferred it have a plug on the bottom.

Worlds largest finger puppet. Still cool but knowing the bottom, I'd never pay above retail.

It is a bit shocking to see that, SVHC always exceed the quality of other
sofvi producers. This seems kinda lazy considering how cool the rest of
the doll looks. Unpainted black looks sick.

Maybe its to emulate the IKB Flying Hedoran, basically the same on bottom.
I like that the Hukkokudo version was rotocast and has a tiny hole. Still...
would love to get this new SVHC doll.

I thought you'd have liked that about the figure. I think it gives the sculpt DIY feel.

Do you have pic of the unpainted black?

Post Re: New Bemon Sculpt
I do like it for what it is regardless, just think it
might have been done like CKA Death Menargo

For the SVHC brand it fell short in my opinion
tho I do not hate on it at all, its perfect as is

black version likely a sample was on instagram
sadly one of the few times I have not saved it

I do not like the new shirts with Danzig drawings
they look goofy where previous shirts are solid

I wish I could have nailed down one of the vintage
Army surplus jackets, those really do fucking rule

Bemon switchblade or Bemon brass knuckles would
be kinda cool. There I go dreaming again.......

I'm pretty disappointed with the ginormous hole in the bottom. Was really looking forward to picking up one of these, but at the price point these have been going for I think there are better places to spend my cash. Agree with John, not sure why Honda didn't make it like a Death Menargo.

I do like the hollow bottom. Definitively aiming at remembering the IKB Hedoran.
Nice toy overall, but sadly without reach.
It came out way better than the previous one he released.

Well, an intentional nod to the classic IKB Hedoran makes the design a lot better I have to admit.
