Re: Modzilla - Ron English x Toy Art Gallery
Even with a million points of articulation, all completely essential to it's manufacture or not . . . it's still a waste of vinyl!
Just to clarify, I really like Ron English's art and he seems like a real nice guy on the couple of occasions we've met, but whoever's advising him on the toy side should be shot with shit!

Re: Modzilla - Ron English x Toy Art Gallery
I even still have one of the original blank blue GID bunnies I picked up for $10 on the bay - and it looks like a completely different character compared to the warts on this.
Who will actually drop $350 on this... thing, whatever the hell it's supposed to be? If there are people out there that will, good for Ron - but if all that producing this in soft vinyl did was ridiculously drive up production cost due to the fact that the sculpt had to be sliced into a thousand parts to ensure successful pulling, then this may just be the worst business decision in Gaijinfubi so far.

Gaijinfubi? I love it. For all the wrong reasons.
