I believe this was from the batch of Boguras painted by Nakayoshi, which is why it includes his header card and not Yamomark's. There was more or less one of each. From the Dokidoki show in Osaka in 2012.

EDIT: J beat me to the photo.

Those were some fantastic customs; great vintage-style paint schemes. Wonder where they all ended up.

thanks folks! Looks like someone got a steal. My homework is to try learn about Nakayoshi. Now! I wonder what other Yamomark figures he has painted?

Nakayoshi did more than just paint the figure. They created the kaiju design for Yamomark.

that makes a whole load more sense. I always thought it was in a different vein.Thanks for the info!

quite a lot of items coming up on the 6th! Anyone seen any colour images of the space caterpillar yet?

Awesome!. This is a great opportunity to get some of Yamomark's leftover Wonder Festival releases.

That new caterpillar mold will have its first release soon. While I don't want this colorway, the sculpt is totally amazing. I am really looking forward to all the creative things you could do with this guy.

Saw this on a couple sites today.

He's got a nice cuteness factor! although... he looks more like an ear of corn with parrot wings

those wings are awesome!!! aubergine angel! Caterpillar man's got a Dreamrocketness to him? which is cool, I want to see a psychedelic colourway for sure!

yamomark is doing it right, again!
i love their boot wearing villains, and now these creatures with classic paint jobs are spot-on!

Love the caterpillar !

talking about customs is this not the coolest custom ever. Kaiju for the culturally mature.

I have tried to trace back where i saved it from think it was the kay kanto blog but I couldn't find it there again.

Great colors !

I have to say that the Blobpus Dobler is the best colourway of that sculpt I have seen yet. I don't always dig the yamo-blobs but really cool to see the latest pics on his blog

With me

Yamo-blob is a great match, Blobpus' colour sense brought out the best of yamomark's sculpts. One of my favourite collabo series.

Awesome shot!

Did anyone preorder this?

http://yamomark.blog19.fc2.com/blog-entry-408.html

I did, and this is probably the first time I ever pre-ordered a figure (pretty strange - I always seem to get things second-hand). But I never received any notification or confirmation of my order. Maybe they don't ask for payment until when it is released in July, but shouldn't I have heard something from them that they received my order? I am not sure how these things typically go.

He will ask for payment closer to the release date.

i love vintage vinyl !!

Can anyone explain why this Kosumegira color form isn't available for overseas shipment? I'm new, am rather baffled at the Byzantine rules of etiquette involved in toy collecting, and would appreciate an honest explanation of the no-overseas thing and a strategy for acquiring this toy (Yahoo Japan? Mandarake? Something else?).

Thanks for the tip bansheebot. I found a deputy, and have my fingers crossed.

I'd still love to understand more the decision to limit sales of some toys to their domestic market.
