I think that Jay's ape is a Bwana Spoons custom, I recall him painting some figures from the GT set.

EDIT: Actually, it wasn't - this is Bwana's:

Jay's blue/red on gid kong was a event only release, just like jefftallic'as green kong. Event only release. Not sure which events but they are not one off's (but definitely rarer than the others).

That photo is very old, I don't think it's coming out anymore... Although with Buta you never know...

Yeah, I remember having seen that shot somewhere quite a while ago, unfortunately I've never seen the actual toy anywhere. Does anyone know if this was ever released?

One thing is for certain, there are clearly tonnes and tonnes of Butas made so far, yet they never seem to come up on the aftermarket (and, sure, I am asking :wink: ). It's a real testament to the quality and sculpt of these figures that even after huge collections, people still like holding on to every last one :mrgreen:

Thought that little ooze-it was an old pachi toy. Saw some pictures of it in a case at CKA with some similar looking older minis.

Another lift from Grumble-land, for possible inclusion in the database.

edit: noticed that he's under Alien Zarab - I was looking for him as Zarab-Seijin...

Sorry for asking the obvious, but what are all those sweet micros?

EDIT: what I mean is, are these going to be Buta pieces? (sorry, my translation ability is not great)

I hear it's for the Anniversary of Ultraman.
Something like 30+ new sculpts. These look to be it.

2nd row from left in the center: WTF IT"S FUCKING ZAZAHN!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Finally!

Actually come to think of it these look like exact micro repros of the illustrations on the headers.

:shock: This is VERY exciting!! I see Takkong as well (and a twintail?). I would love for Zazahn not to be a micro... I know some people where waiting for that toy!!
