I have been thinking of getting one, but would like some user opinions...

basiacally - Is it made from hi quality vinyl like the bemon or gargamel stuff ?


I dig this colorway, but am still on the fence - any input ?

i dont have a bemon, so i can't speak for that, but i don't think the vinyl on the longneck is as nice as gargamel stuff. i have a gargamel hedoran sitting next to be now and i could hurt someone with this thing.

the longneck is very thin in comparison i think. especially in the belly area where the seam is... you can bend this figure to make the seam come apart with no problem

it's a cool figure though. i like the sculpt of it better than the bemon (they are similar to me) and the paint schemes are usually pretty cool from what i have seen.

that strawberry one there i think is new. i'm not a huge fan of pink, but i havent seen another longneck like it i dont think

you should be happy with it, but it is not nearly as solid as gargamel toys

this is the one i have - pretty new also i think. i bought it from super7

Good point is that the figure itself is big compared to Gargamel stuff.

Concerning the color versions, I may be wrong, but so far, I've seen the following versions :
- Green
- Black
- Strawberry (with or without cream on top, the one you are tempted to buy is without)
- Red (pickle's version)
- White 'Mt Fuji'
- White 'Snow' (white vinyl with red eyes)

And then, as usual, you have the unpainted version as well !

I should receive the White 'Snow' version next week, I'm really curious to see how it is in real.

yea this thing is pretty king kong sized. definitely bigger than the few gargamel things i have...

They stand about 10 inches and I held out for a getting one for a while too. When I saw one cheap (75 ducks) I snagged it. I regret not getting on the band wagon for these guys sooner, there is a whole lot going on with this figure, pretty busy and a great sculpt. Could be just me but he seems heavier and thicker in the vinyl department.

pull the trigger already...

yeah the vinyl on these is soft but I think it is just as thick as Gargamel's vinyl. I remember someone sayin that there was a Bemon that was made of softer vinyl so maybe the maker of Bemons is the same maker as these Longneck figures and he just likes the softer vinyl. I think its cool and smells really good. they are easy to take apart and put back together.

I have to say this is one of my favorite figures. Once you hold one, you can appreciate the sculpt much more and he is a big bulky fellow to boot. The red & blue color release wasn't my favorite but I love the 1st green version. The black, Mt Fugi and now strawberry are pretty cool paint schemes too.

Great toy.

And it takes up SO much room

was a little disappointed about this fig
when having in hands first time -
expected it to be bigger from the fotos
and its way to soft for my taste
almost like squishy.
but some great colorways,
awesome paintjob - mount fuji rocks
strawberry so cool.
