 Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database

Oh fuck, those are all fullsize too, correct? That sure would make for a pricey ass luckybag... I totally want in on that  Only want one glow, one reg, and one clear of each Shikaruna sculpt, I wished for more clear and glow and it looks like they are doing just that! well, with the clears anyway. I would want all those in that pic, the clear purple Daigon is the best, I would love one of those! that totally clear giant zag would be about the best thing ever, Im not even going to get my hopes up, I bet they will be super limited if they are officially sold at all. got the first giant zags on order(ordered both when I was still thinking I wanted to get every version), still cant wait to see them in person, seems like its taking forever for these to ship. got to say I love what this company is doing

 Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database
yeah it can stand without the support but it's a little more stable with the support of the fist...and most I've seen have little to no paint on the knuckles to avoid 'scuffing'...

 Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 1/12/09
OK Kids. I updated the Shikaruna Koubo database best to my knowledge. I've been slacking and cracking but I think I got most of it in there. Good thing is there are alot more people collecting it now so anything I missed I'm sure will be brought to my attention quickly. One point I might have overlooked (I'm 40 my memory is not as good as it once was  , has the Shikaruna release schedule gone like this since Superfestival 47: Kobe Hobikon releases (one offs and limited items) and then the Super Position Dororu's, now Lucky Bag 09 items. Was there something in between? Was Kobe Hobikon in Nagoya? Or was that a seperate thing? thanks C

 Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 1/12/09
The Kobe event was followed by the Nagoya releases so they were seperate.

 Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 1/12/09
So what the heck is the mummy kaiju - I don't believe I've recall seeing that one before. And where's them pics of Gold or Clear Dorols?! :drool: I don't universally like the Dorol, but those sound very promising

 Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 1/12/09
OK So let's review this and people like Kaiwi fill me in on what was Kobe Hobikon (Hobby Complex) and what was Modern Market (Nagoya): Chiwos: Black with green/yellow/orange? Kobe Hobikon was there a limited item or one off's? Nagoya? - limited or one off's? are all the clears from the Nagoya Modern Market event? Dagigon- OK was this from the Nagoya Modern Market then (my fave by the way)?:  Same with this Maity Nagoya Modern Market or earlier release:  Other Maity. Was the GID orange Painted one a limited item from Kobe Hobikon? I think there were alot of one off's from Kobe Hobikon but no Maitys for Nagoya correct? moving on: Zagoran, Kobe Hobikon limited was pink/black right? There were also one offs. How about Nagoya? Anything? Siberian Iron Beast- any limited or one offs for either event? Bagun- Kobe Hobikon had a Tan/Purple one that was limited and some one off's including that amazing Purple one everyone wants, but were there any for Nagoya? Dororu/Dorol. Kobe Hobikon had the Gold Dorol which was limited, no one offs right? Nagoya had all those clear painted ones? correct? thanks I'll make the updates accordingly

I wont be keeping both Giant Zags at this point, when they arrive I will probably sell the green one. let me know if your interested  I love the Bagun personally, if you end up with a clear one of those, you know who to sell it to

 Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 1/12/09
Damn, that's not what I think of when I imagine "mummy kaiju"  but it is one of the mini's that I dig and that Modern Market Dagigon is the shit. Was it a one-off, or like a 10-20 piece release?

 Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 1/12/09
 So does that label mean that this was a luckybag type figure, separate from the painted clear vinyl 4-lot?? I really dont understand what kind of release this guy is, based on that label

I think they were extra if I'm correct.

I don't know if all bags had one or the other. We'll probably know more about the distribution when they arrive stateside.

 Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 1/12/09
that's what I was assuming on the mini. the Space Kaiju, however, this is the first I've seen of it's packaging/label.
