 Sunguts - Dogs of Space
I like the horned crocodile guy. I like the brain guy. I don't know about the other two. Maybe as a set they work, but I generally don't care for overly simplistic designs and smooth lines. I'm really liking the glitter body though. The color especially. Sort of a saturday-night-fever-penguin-meets-spaceman vibe from the neck down. I wonder if the heads will remain unpainted. Either way, I might like a set. Sunguts is really grabbing my attention lately. Thoughts on these?

 Re: Sunguts - Dogs of Space
The one on the far left looks like its based on the Asahi "Golden Flame" (more popularly known as the Golden Turd... just take a look: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asahi_Beer_Hall). I love a lot of the new Sunguts stuff that's coming out (the Suikos rule), but something about these guys just makes it look like the head doesn't match the body. Might be the sharp contrast in paint (brown/glitter to stark white), might just be the minimalist paint in general. I think if I saw them in another color I'd be digging them, particularly the croc.

 Re: Sunguts - Dogs of Space
Thanks for the story link, Ricky! Anything named the Golden Turd is tops in my book--although, not a popular book! LOL! I also agree, the recent Sunguts stuff is pretty killer (e.g., all of the kappa) and these ones should be interesting to check out when finally released!

 Re: Sunguts - Dogs of Space
I see the 3rd and think N.E.R.D.  Since they're published this way, I assume they'll be sold this way - without any paint or detailing to the heads?

Looks the heads are interchangeable.

Hmm. I wonder how the girlie with boobs growing out of her turtleneck fits in to the group...

They still look like bowling pins to me.

 Re: Sunguts - Dogs of Space
These are the least impressive things I have seen Sunguts release.

 Re: Sunguts - Dogs of Space
I dont really get these either ... nothing too special. The painted versions look way better than the unpainteds though.
