Normally I would love clear or GID, but on this guy I prefer natural. Give me gray, flesh, or black.

you guys kill me. Maybe he'll skip ahead and release the hose guy and mix it up. I'm trying to cut back on having multiples of sculpts, at least for standard sized stuf. One Tonneran for now.

One Tonneran to rule them all!

No doubt. I can't wait to get it!

Love this guy and I wish I had the cash to go for the first release. I would have gone for the yellow colorway, It definitely shows off the awesome sculpt the most. If a GID edition come along I will be going for that for sure!
Congrats to the winners.

Love pics like this, and still happy I chose and won a yellow. They look great, all 4 colors together like that.

thats a fuckload of vinyls.

This was posted on Nari's blog within the last hour:

14th
I have received two cancellations.
They were the orders for the representation.
I am very regrettable.
Please do not order these patterns.
The obstacle is caused in the management of Elegab.
When Elegab goes bankrupt, the monster of Elegab cannot be bought.
Please think about this problem with S.B.org.

Ugh... Nari's the last guy to deserve to get jerked around like that. I'd assume that means that two more people from the lottery will be getting toys tho.

In the Japanese:

"one was ordered for a friend, but that friend was able to order their own, resulting in a cancellation. I'm making as many as I can. Please don't order on behalf of someone else."

And another making-of-shot...
The metal blue'ish ones has something of an intercostal highway over troubled water.
What a piece of art! W-O-W Failed order sucks

Holy cow, they look soooooo good. This may end up becoming one of my favorite toys by a long shot once I get it in hand. I cannnnot wait.

Nari taking it to the finish....

Wow....he specifically pointed out this Board.

Probably just wants to raise awareness of how uncool it is to bone out on your order when you win a lottery and to play games in order to increase your chances of winning in the first place.

Obviously, a lot of work and thought goes into making these toys and trying to accommodate all the fans/collectors. It sucks that for all his effort he still has to contend with this kind of BS.

I really admire his take on creating and selling.
It's a real shame that people are fronting on this release and even worse that SB is catching blame.

Unfortunately I missed out on this and would have loved to pick up a red or yellow, so if anyone decides they don't want theirs - feel free to contact anyone of us looking.

... for the boards sake.

Why don't you contact Nari & see if he will sell you one of the ones flaked out on by said douche bag.

The more I look at this dude, the more I think what a fucked-up dazed and confused look he has on his face! Damn I love it!

I'm glad I went with the black..makes me think he may have tunneled through some kind of underground oil pocket...

Yeah, the black one is really good. It reminds me of mountainous terrain--and the highway and tunnel was blasted through--like I've seen when going upstate in NY.

Ha, yeah, we do have lots of tunnels and blasted-through roadways. That's why I'd love to see a really 'brown' one down the line, or as a custom. I went with the red in part because I like the dark colored feet, as if that was the really earthy part of his uprooting.

Damn, these pics are killing me!

I haven't been this excited to get a new toy in a long time!!!

This was a good idea, lets hope it works.

Good luck!
Let us know if this works for you...It really is a cool toy.

Thanks for the support guys.
I will definitely keep everyone posted.
