I got no idea what this means but it looks kinda cheap and throwaway to me!

I guess in the right environment (not mine) or with a cool paint application it might be stronger but it currently appearing on my 'Most Wanted' list! . . .

I'll reserve judgement on these until I see one for real I think.

A big chunk of clear Japanese vinyl like this could be quite amazing... add some nice paint apps, and who knows?

and lifesize is what I hear too

I agree it could be visually great, but (just playing Devils advocate) . . . I'm a toy collector . . . I don't really see it as a 'toy'.

There are so many poor (Western) non-articulated platform toys that are just chunks of poorly molded vinyl that some no-name artist has thrown paint on that I'm numb to the concept and kinda non-plussed (so far).

I admit that some Usugrow calligraphy or illustration work could save it but to register pad printing on that shape would take some kinda doing . . . looking forward to seeing how it develops (and potentially eating humble pie!) :wink:

After seeing a bunch of Indiana Jones previews for the new movie, I wonder if this is Crystal Skull related in origin...

I had no idea that there was a real mythos surrounding jan actual crystal skull found in Belize...

Did they ever explain how they "knew" that there were supposed to be 13 of these things?

The Indiana Jones crystal skull is alien...but the other crystal skull (the mitchell-hedges one) is still up for debate whether it's real or not.
