 2 Headed-Bemon query...
Need help. Anyone can make of the text below this image of the two headed bemon?  Is it 'PBOBE'? Or 'FBOBE'?Or 'TBOBE'...Its just impossible to read this. It is an image imprinted on a poster that came with an older painted Bemon (probably from the first few batch). It would be easier to look at it from the poster. Please help. Thanks.

 I think Ralph or Abe posted this image before. No name but a similiar image.

 Re: 2 Headed-Bemon querry...
Here's a nice clear shot of the one that came with an early green "factory" painted Bemon. I'm sure he'll appreciate the flood of emails he gets from this post

It's from Bemon and it's a nice size. 14" x 17" maybe and it's only of that 2 headed guy, and the BEMON letter in old english at top but it looks like it was done in pencil and erased on certain parts.

 Re: 2 Headed-Bemon querry...
I got a few responses from the man, about the whole anti-american thing. It was merely a rumor so let's not go there again.

 Re: 2 Headed-Bemon querry...
I think it's a language barrier thing... pretty sure he had a friend translate the emails back and forth for him. The mystery of it all just makes it more fun IMO, but yeah I wouldn't mind having a chat with the guy myself... It's almost worth learning Japanese just to read his blog.

The "he" refers to Yoda/Mr. CKA? Actually Yoda is NOT the maker/creator of Bemon toys. He is just one of the retailers for Bemon products. I also don't think he is against American or something, he is just wary of folks who turn up at his shop and the only thing you are after is the Bemons. While he is not the friendliest of guys around, he does warm up to small talks on other kaijus. CKA is probably the only retailer that consistently put out substantial portion of his bemon allocation for public sale. In some sense, i like his fairness in dealing with the bemon sales. Other channels almost never made it past the staff/friend level. I have lost count how many times I have tried and failed to score anything through the bemon webstore which never last through 1 minute despite having super high speed internet connection and such. And this applies not only to the toys but the crazy limited T-shirts too.

 Re: 2 Headed-Bemon querry...
here's one caught on film in the wild. sadly, NFS. spotted at Cosmo Knight Alpha with Flynn. I had never seen one in person before and what struck me was how big this guy is. lots of girth...
