I like how his knuckles fade to clear. But that's sort all I like about it.

I'm a big Touma fan, so this will be a nice bridge between my SB type stuff and my case of Talons and Knuckles on the other side. AS for Kaiju for Grow-ups, I prefer this one t the last release.

Uh oh...looks like I'm the only one liking this. So be it.

No thanks. Seems like a stained attempt to capitalize on the heodorah frenzy.

one day when Im rich Im buying all toumas stuff, It is so simple and has great lines and colors, all his stuff could go together in a case and look proper.

I also think it's a LAME attempt to capitolize on the Hedorah legacy - Hee hee

I think this is a figure that will be nice in the right colorway. I think I'll wait a bit and see what other versions come out before deciding on one.

not so crazy abou this one.. but Touma is definitely a talented dude, I think he cranks out a bit too much stuff but some of it is probably out his hands. I still think his best work is yet to come. Did anyone see the articulated wolf fig he did last year? thats was dope!

I quite like it. Maybe the hedorah influence is too much, but how many companies have released a homage to him and not received flack?

what other companies have paid homage to hedorah? I mean hedorans and earth restroyers are basically the same thing, not a real variation on a theme....which ones are you referring to?

I LOVE touma's work but am underwhelmed and see the whole kaiju for grown ups as a cash in.. ledbetter?

Looks okay, but nothing I consider a must have. We'll have to see if they can pull a paint variation that makes it work.

you dont have to be rich to buy his stuff
everything of his i ever bought i sold off at about half of what i originally paid

as for the figure...i hate the knuckles and the smile on the figure. i know that is touma's trademark....but they should have ditched that. the reason the ika gilas worked so well is because it isnt the traditional kozik style.

they jus need to paint it red or sumthin so it goes a lil more with the name magman...either way the only touma toys i'll forever jock are the lil zipper head guys

BxH melting kun springs to mind.

word...I see where you are coming from, but I think, that the BxH melting kun figure is strong enough to stand on its own without the melting aspect and the Touma figure relies too much on this aspect...just an opinion, just too gimmicky?. if thats a word.... :)

Based off the Ika there will probably be about 100 colorways of this
Not that I'll be picking up any of the wonderwall "kaiju"
