Ilanena's next SuperFestival exclusives are up:
http://www.artstorm.co.jp/gentei.html
I don't collect these guys (and with the rate they are releasing them at, I don't think I want to start, either...) but the color scheme on these ones are very nice, particularly on the Meetaras and Metrokabayan

 Re: Ilanena Watch. New set up on Ilanena's flickr... to be sold at Omocha SPIRAL in Harajuku. I think they're all nods to 80s/90s toys... the eye on the Metrokabayan is from My Little Pony, but I can't figure out the other two.

Re: Ilanena Watch. K.I.L.L.E.R.
These rule. I think I might have to make these my first Ilanena's.
Also, I think the H is based off this weird Japanese witch doll from the 70's/80's that I see around sometimes, the color of the vinyl and the eye are dead ringers...
Do you think the other one could be a Carebears theme? Like the different colors of the bears on his pseudopods and his body is the sky/clouds? I only say this because I went with my wife to the Carebears Museum exhibit in Shibuya last week...

Re: Ilanena Watch. I really like the hanabi and sunrise set. The betarus is great. I wish they would split these sets.

Re: Ilanena Watch. Ramune is still available...others have sold though...that Hanabi set is ridiculous, as was the sunrise set...
