My apologies if this has been posted somewhere before, but I searched and couldn't really find anything...

Can anyone tell me more about the Amapro Onigon's? How many are there, what colorways and are they only available at the Pachi Summi events? Pix of the various figs available would also be cool. I'm kinda diggin' these. Thanks

Seriously? No one has info on these figs

I don't think anyone here collects them seriously enough to answer your question. They are not documented very well, since they're basically freebies at Patchi-Summit (to answer your question, the vast majority were PS items).

There is at least one version for every PS event. K-T had some photos of the Onigons from the very first PSs, which I had never seen before. Maybe someone saved the images.

There are also blank lottery versions given away at PS (to match the freebie one) and sometimes the painted and blank versions are signed, etc. (you will see these being sold from time to time).

I have about 9 of them.
Clear with yellow spray 2 variations (on all 4s)
Metallic blue (on all 4s)
Yellow painted (on all 4s)
translucent red with gold (standing)
translucent yellow (standing)
and 3 other standing ones... not in front of me to give accurate descriptions. All standing, some with dino neck thingy, some without.

What Daniel says is true, I would be hard pressed to make any kind of accurate run down of what's out there.

I'll try to update this post with pics on a sunnier day than today.

I think I would die if I've ever seen a figure with this paint scheme:

Thanks gang, much appreciated. Would be cool to see some pics. The standing figs are my favorite I think. They're just an amusing piece to me. Fun figures overall and I'm not as enthusiastic as some here about keeping up on a lot of the stuff out there is all...

This is a good start

For reference, as I don't really know anything about these either.
The Amapro site lists the blue one issued for 2005 Patchi Summit. No year quoted for the red one, but also a summit release.
I guess somebody with actual info will chime in.

Thanks Kaos. I saw that being the only one listed as well. Found it sorta odd, but whatever. Thanks again and looking forward to more replies if anyone has info or pix.

Technically, I think the one with a frill has a different name. I'll have to dig that up.

EDIT: The name is "Gonion" (swap the first 2 characters of Onigon). -_-

Wow! Lady Goji! Those look awesome!
Wouldn't mind seeing a more elaborate treatment of that clear version. But I hate giving you homework.. ;)

I've also got that clear one. It's pretty nice but I kinda like the standing ones more. Clear one is a nice simple spray. Just some paint for the pupils and a yellow spray on the back. I can't read the kanji but the rest of the words on the baggie say: Onigon - Pachimon Summit 2009
