Can Dragamel be placed in the "mini" catagory?
I know its a smaller version of kaiju - but its on a whole other level. Even the prices dont reflect that the drag is a mini. It retailed for more than other garg minis.

Is Dragamel a mini?

those aren't really considered minis, but to be fair.. minis aren't really fight figs.

Still sad I missed the all black Des tho

Anyone got a checklist of all the Des's? I have the following six but know there must be more:

1. Blue w/purple and red
2. Teal blue w/silver (from the Thrasman 2 pack?)
3. SDCC 06 clear green w/silver
4. S7 GID (Orange and black)
5. Maxtoys clear purple unpainted
6. Maxtoys clear purple w/gold spray

what else?

I don't think the Desura/Deathra gets enough recognition he deserves! Observe: (photos from toybotstudios) After reading the reviews and then receiving both of the MaxToy exclusive releases I have to say they really hit it out of the park with these. The colors are amazing in person. The gold on purple is so shiny and clean and the clear purple vinyl is top notch. These stand amongst some of my very favorite vinyl figures of all time. The Desura sculpt is and has been BY FAR my favorite by gargamel (with the exception of Gargadeath) but with this release I have a feeling I may not be the only one who shares this belief. I hope and PREY that Gargmel as a lot more in store of this one eyed flying dragon/bat including a line of full sized figures in the future. So I pose this question to all your Brainers. Which is your favorite Gargamel mini and why? Maybe more people will step up and throw down some much deserved respect for DESURA and he will reign supreme! Sorry TBS, this picture is too good to not repost! Please answer the poll and keep the fight alive! Please include any I did not mention[/img]

Smog. I like all the colourways to date (even the suspended aluminum). I like the automotive parts and chunky feel to it. And the detail. The Desura is nice (have a couple) and the MaxToy gold on purple is nice. But it just doesn't seem as unique and special as the smog.

Im starting to lean twords hedorah this is a great quote off the Godzilla vs. Hedorah movie box "an environmentally deadly monster called Hedorah, who apparently originated from a meteor that fell to the Earth filled with bacteria and then metamorphosed into a creature so toxic it has the capacity to destroy the entire planet." Thats my kinda monster. I do ageree with xoco - I like my Hedorahs BIG - Yowzas

To be clear with the thread topic, I am talking about Gargamel minis... not mini fight figures like Gargamess, Bullmask, etc... but I should have made more of a point on that and just said Garg Minis. As for the Dragomel I guess it can go both ways. I just put it up in the poll as another option. I guess it is also relative to ones own opinion if some of these are considered minis, full, half-size, pint size, or other. So to be clear, lets discuss just the MINIS... like the four that S7 made into an exclusive set... I think those are the four major minis for this discussion... IMO!

Voted for Hedoran. I love the crazy smiles and I love the bootleg history, but most of all I love Bwana's colors. Dragamel is in a close 2nd.

I went ahead and voted for Desura, but the hedorahs and Bakobaso are close seconds. I'm surprised there's not more love for Bakobaso. How could you not love that smiling face?
