I guess it might just be where I live then, or I just had a run of incredibly bad luck (which, knowing me, I also should not be surprised at); but yeah, I learned in my short time here that anything of value should be delivered to a work address if possible (now if only I had a job!).

It was this very picture that sparked my initial interest in Utsugiyo a few years back -- I was blown away by the sculpts and colors on that table and needed to know more. While I don't normally go for toys with such limited paint applications, I couldn't pass up the opportunity to grab this guy when he came up for sale recently.



It's kind of crazy to me how well a minimal paint job looks on such an intensely detailed sculpt.

Nice version Jason. I'm hoping we'll see a release of the two-headed dragon (Doguro?) soon.

I'm right there with you!! I havnt been as excited as I am for a release in a long time as I am for the Dogura! The wait is killing me! I inquired about it not to long ago and was told "soon" lol but it's been a while since that.

Love the sculpt and color. A contender for 2016 best toy!

Totally agree, I have not been as excited for a release in a long time and this guy is absolutely amazing but I almost wish it stayed like the teaser pics showed I could do without the hair.

Nevertheless I am beyond pumped with anticipation of hopefully being able to snag one of these. Impeccable top notch work! Really is a stunning toy.

The only way I can describe this is- Japanese art expressed in the form of sofubi! Detailed, intricate, top-notch! I'm eager to see how the packaging is going to be like too!

:( heart broken, gave my hopes up way to long ago for this guy.

Huge congrats to any board members that one. Please don't post any pics as I will be extremely fucking jealous lol but in all seriousness hope to see a bunch of amazing pics of this beauty. Super excited to see what the packaging looks like as well.

I don't mind the hair per se, but I dislike how flat the beard lies. If I owned one I'd have to have a quick braiding sesh.

I wish the beard was shorter for sure and messier. Just can't see a two headed dragon keeping such a nicley combed beard lol

Flying is a form of blow drying.


I like this toy a lot. I won't start collecting these since it's just about impossible. It looks like a lot of fun to play with.

I like the way Utsugiyo paint the bloody mouth.
Details of the sculpt is amazing and color is perfect.

Insanely tight paint on this one... I don't dig the long goatee on the one head (LOVE the hair used as "smoke" on the other), but damn... gorgeous colors, beautifully applied.

Totally agree, the smoke is so much better than the beard... plus love the ninjas, very nice addition.

If only they kept it clean without the nose hair and goatee, but that's my personnel preference, a great piece to have nonetheless. Congrats to the winners. :D

Does anyone know if they are ever going to do another run of the Moon Dog? Probably my most wanted figure, and I didn't win it the last time around, much to my distress.

I hear ya man, I'm in the same boat except I say that with each release no matter the toy because there all spectacular!!

How often do these guys do a new release? I finally have the " A Trip to the Moon"-inspired Oozeball, Longneck, and SkullHeadButt toys, so all I need is the "Moondog" to complete the set. Everyday I hope to hear news of new drop, but there's been nothing in a while...
