Don't get me wrong..they definitely look cool. kurumonz wrote: Yah I heard about the Spacetroopers comparison too. IMHO, this lil fella have way more details than the spacetroopers. Just the head sculpt got me blown away. Packaging-wise totally different too. It is true the packaging alone warrants this toy and its not an exaggeration. Ilu Ilu is a one-man show up to this point, so I don't think he can flood the market like Toygraph. I missed out on the Kaizo Ningens and have not seen any anywhere. Also seems like Ilu Ilu has a day job and doing this on the side? I really don't see this heading the same direction as Spacetroopers.
Btw, if anyone can throw a Kaizo Ningen my way, I'd be forever grateful. Sorry for sneaking in a "want" here. sounds like space troopers are really treated like thrash. personally i still like the space troopers very much although toygraph did destroy the line with the classic too many too fast route. while i am glad that there are no more space troopers, the reason behind why they are stopped is rather sad. i hope shuji is ok. i think the neo gorillas probably wouldn't go the too fast too many route like the troopers. however, after the quick sellout of the handful they had at SF, iruiru collected orders and re-produce the 1st two runs. i think there will not be an agreement to whether it would have been better for them to just leave the 1st two run untouched and thereby elusive/pricey or re-producing them after the sellout like they did. i like the gorilla but it is just among one of the many nice figures available these days.

 Re: Neo Gorilla & Kaizo Ningen ?
I would love ANY of the Neo Gorilla releases so far! I'm hopeful I'll land one shortly though if I had my preference I would pick the orange or this new one!

 Re: Neo Gorilla & Kaizo Ningen ?
hmm i'll wait for a black with red eyes or something along those lines, although i think this one is nicer than the first 2 releases.

 Re: Neo Gorilla & Kaizo Ningen ?
So far I'm thinking Blue/Orange > Pink/Green > Blue/Black.

 Re: Neo Gorilla & Kaizo Ningen ?
Interesting arm band sticker. I wonder if we need to apply it ourselves or its already done. I like the colors. So, while some of you are backing away, I'll be camping out at the web store. And thanks for the dual timing Chris. At least I don't need to struggle to stay awake

 Re: Neo Gorilla & Kaizo Ningen ?
Want! Love the pink/green colors. Hopefully I'll have better luck this time. The 2nd time slot is going to be perfect and I will be there right as the clock strikes.

 Re: Neo Gorilla & Kaizo Ningen ?
Excited for tomorrow... pink and green is a sick color combo but my favorite is the below (sorry for the crap cell phone pic). Many thanks to irishstout for the trade as I could not be any happier with the quality of the figure and the top notch packaging!  Good luck to everyone going for a Gorilla tomorrow!!!
