I agree with everyone else that the painting/poster is sick!

Any update on schedule for release or possible colorways?

Looks like maybe something at Super Festival 59?

Looks like that's the first version and it will be pink and green mixed parts. I'm wondering if they will be randomly mix or if they'll all be just like that one shown. ~$85USD seems pretty high for an unpainted toy.

Hmmm I really like this guy, but $85 does seem pricey i was hoping for something closer to $45 - $60. It seems like a lot of the newer toys are selling for more brand new than the older brands. I feel like i was paying a lot less for SB, Gargamel and RxH back in the day when they were released. Maybe it's due to these being taller/larger. How tall is it? Or...maybe i'm just old.

Am I missing something? I see where some minute changes were made (pterodactyl beak, right forearm in some areas) but it doesn't look all that different to me.

i agree looks about the same and just as bad ass

Re: Lamour Supreme's New Vinyl

I think the color of the vinyl is hiding some of the detail that you see from the clay master.

All in all, I LOVE it! Straight up bootleg MotU right there! Need some mexican luchador colorways going on! With cheap bag and header!

maybe that's it. when you put the pics side by side, it does look comparable.

and badass. Don't get me wrong. I still want one.

Re: Lamour Supreme's New Vinyl

Sun Apr 29, 2012 12:01 pm

yes i think its the vinyl color... either its the green, or the lighting in the pic... btu the detail is there... just not "Popping" as much if you will.

Re: Lamour Supreme's New Vinyl

Sun Apr 29, 2012 12:04 pm

Loooks awesome!!! Its true the glare keeps the details from showing, especially on the face. Regardless, love the unpainted vinyl, can't wait to see how these get painted up.

Re: Lamour Supreme's New Vinyl

Sun Apr 29, 2012 1:35 pm

Finally! Looks really awesome, and I'm hoping I could score one somehow!

A lot of that has to do with the weak dollar. A toy that cost 65 then, would be around 90-100 now.

80 yen to the dollar is way less than the 120 yen you were getting in 06-08.

Re: Lamour Supreme's New Vinyl

thats a great explanation. Big picture

Re: Lamour Supreme's New Vinyl

Sun Apr 29, 2012 2:10 pm

I think the bright vinyl is preventing the details from being shown.
I got the unpainted Necromons in bright orange and couldnt take
A proper pic of it. These were sold at Superfest. Who scored one?

Re: Lamour Supreme's New Vinyl

Sun Apr 29, 2012 2:14 pm

I don't think Superfest starts for another three hours.

Awesome toy!..Congrats again Lamour!

Re: Lamour Supreme's New Vinyl

Sun Apr 29, 2012 2:15 pm

Congrats to those who will score! Pretty much the only MOTU-like toy I find appealing.

Re: Lamour Supreme's New Vinyl

Sun Apr 29, 2012 3:03 pm

This sculpt is so good...The detail is amazing!..Probably looks even better in person too..Congrats Joel Ive been wondering when this beast was going to finally drop...I may hold off on this version though, in hopes u will release a white unpainted. :D

Anyone know the official release date on these?

Re: Lamour Supreme's New Vinyl

Sun Apr 29, 2012 3:06 pm

I WILL have one of these.
I WILL I tell you.
I WILL!

Re: Lamour Supreme's New Vinyl

Sun Apr 29, 2012 3:15 pm

Thanks G, I believe they're about to be sold in Japan at Superfest right
now. Unpainted white will probably never happen but you never know
