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.

Re: New Bemon Sculpt
Yes. That's the original header card. Here's another image of which is really blurry which has the front and backside. viewtopic.php?f=30&t=46723

Re: New Bemon Sculpt
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.

Re: New Bemon Sculpt
BEMON does it again, perfect.
I'm dying to see the underside, since there are no joints the hole should be massive.

Re: New Bemon Sculpt
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.

Re: New Bemon Sculpt
http://page8.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/show/image?aID=h215818918&apg=1The 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?

Re: New Bemon Sculpt
I saw a picture of the underbelly somewhere, it's an enormous gap.

Re: New Bemon Sculpt
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.

Re: New Bemon Sculpt
Worlds largest finger puppet. Still cool but knowing the bottom, I'd never pay above retail.

Re: New Bemon Sculpt
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.

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.......

Re: New Bemon Sculpt
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.

Re: New Bemon Sculpt
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.

Re: New Bemon Sculpt
Well, an intentional nod to the classic IKB Hedoran makes the design a lot better I have to admit.
