Man, I'm really digging that Snake Villain dude. Reminds me of Frenzy doing IluIlu.

fak! that geebo is exactly the color I was hoping for. I must make a kaiju offering for the toy gods so that they may be pleased and bless me with this odd snake man figure.

This toy is truly nuts... love the colors on this one, and this shot is the first where I've noticed that he has one snake-head hand!

The bird guy with the cape looks great. Snake man not so much, it's a little too plain? I want to like the Twiljin, but the gid and those colors haven't sold me yet.

I love the bird guy. The bird guy triggers thoughts of Charactics Walder and invader vinyls. I think the reason I like the bird guy so much is because he seems kind of like a mini vinyl eagle man. The other 2 I don't like as much, but they look very well done.

For sale today at the show in Oasaka, my friend went late and they were still all available. Sounds like two color ways for the bird and snake figures, not sure if two versions for the two headed guy as I wasnt looking to get them.

Kinda surprised that they didn't sell out right away, but I honestly would be shocked to hear if anything was left towards the end. Even if people don't know what they are, I think they are just sweet vinyl with mass appeal. Had a buddy going to the show, but wasn't able to arrange a pick-up for one. Anyways, I'll let it get back to the regularly scheduled hypebeast taking over.

Ha..and then she takes off her clothes. I love Extras.
Not a fan of these toys though. I can see why people would like them but they don't do anything for me personally.

Yeah, I got a call way later that they were sold out but he was taking orders for people that weren't able to get them at the event.

does anyone have these guys yet (so I can PM the sh*t out of you)???

I really like these guys. They have a weird Kaiju/Yokai vibe to them along with a fun retro sofubi look.
Paint jobs look beautifully done as well.
