 Re: kondo by stan (france)
All having relatively the same form, the arms, tail, and horns make the character a bit too repetitive in itself for me. Heads bobbly too.

 Re: kondo by stan (france)
I went for a glow.
I like this vinyl and Stan's creature designs.
I also like the way he makes his creatures seem "cataloged" like he's a scientist researching them.

I know Cosmo Liquid did the K vs P, but Stan says the sculptor is Kondo (same as the monsters name) and that he sculpted Jim Woodring figures. Now i'm confused, are all these folks one and the same ?

 Re: kondo by stan (france)

 Re: kondo by stan (france)
I quite like this sculpt- and the red vinyl. It's the paint on the eye that ruins it for me. Wish it had more of a crisply painted pupil on the black background, instead of the loose spray. I'll be interested if there is ever a "Little Green Man" colorway.

Same here, I wish it was more solid or just black. Still might get one due to all it's other fantastic attributes. And looks fun to play. Header card art rules!
