Finally got my first Bigaroid the other day, the metallic green one, and I am really not digging the sculpt at all. And now the colorway on this one. On a personal level I'm glad beause, RxH produce such great stuff that I always want it all, so Bigaroid is one less thing to get into debt over.

Muton - I can't believe you don't like this figure? I just got my first one and am now hooked on them. I think it rocks with articulation galore! Wasn't too sure about it until I pulled it out of it's plastic holding cell. Can't wait for the Yellow one to land on my door step.
Data - what other colors were seen at Wonderfest? There are three official releases as far as I know - the original green, Gray/Blue and the Yellow.

There's also a blue/red/silver (or grey) one around too.
I like the yellow and turquoise as it's so over the top. I wouldn't collect a series of them, but one or two would work for me.

I don't think I'm ever going to feel this piece. Plus it's size is a drawback for me 'cause I'm limited in space.

these were also on display from a company who's name escapes me - they sold 8 (8!!!) of the silver one. The other 2 were test shots I believe.

It reminds me of one of those big ToyBiz Robot series which held a small 5" tall figure - they came out about 8 or 9 years ago and hng around in KB and TRU for the next 5. Can't like everything I guess. Of them all, I do like the solid yellow one though. Nice shine Jp vinyl goodness.

That's the best painted Bigaroid I've seen so far Shape. Nice work. As I have said before RxH's paint app has let many of his releases down.

I figured you guys use airbrush and all, but please enlighten me with what paints you use, brands etc. If there is another thread on this topic would appreciate if someone gave me the direction. Cheers.

There are a number of threads around on this...try looking through the "custom toys" section to get an idea...I'm not sure about Howard specifically, but the favorite is usually Irisawa V-color.

Shapeshifta uses a special paint that he won't tell me about...

I love the sculpt, and really like the metallic green one I got at sdcc. I hope they release some solid unpainted ones or like a clear one. that would be the MOAB.
