I think Taro answered you in the last thread.

But they are made by Shikaruna Koubo; that turtle-ish one is called "Garumega" and it was done in a special colorway for SF44.

The other one is called "Chiwos," but I have not seen that version for sale yet. Another colorway was sold at SF44.

They are around for sale on the usual suspects.

I thought that was the name of the artist but that Billiken is actually physically producing these?

Hmm, dunno. Maybe it's like the arrangement with Inatzuma-Go and Rumble Monsters?

I actually have no idea. I have not been able to find information on Shikaruna.

Looking for info on Shikaruna. I have asked people who might know. But no information so far.

I got to see these at Superfestival last July.

They are super cool.

I think i was a bit discouraged to get one because of the size.

They are pretty big and need a big show space of their own with spotlights.

Somehow the first one reminds me too much of JarJar Binks - I don't think I could take it.
