Re: MIKE GIANT X Toy Punks Figure I saw a clear one in person a few months ago, it's a rad toy and I'm looking forward to seeing what type of color choices this one will have.

Re: MIKE GIANT X Toy Punks Figure It will be interesting to see how this figure is received. It's got a very Mad Toy/ Tokyo Guns, early Japanese urban vinyl feel to it, that doesn't seem to be that popular these days.
I'm looking forward to seeing Lamour's figure, any updates?

Re: MIKE GIANT X Toy Punks Figure Initially, when I heard about this I thought it would make an awesome fight size (around the time of the Gorilla Biscuits toy dropping), so was kinda disappointed when I heard it was more like BxH size. Since then my tastes have changed and I'm digging the BxH so I'm stoked to see the finished product . . . particularly if it's still being made in JPN!

It's really a nice size. A little bigger than I expected but it goes really well in my collection of BxHs.

The price was much more than I expected though.

Re: MIKE GIANT X Toy Punks Figure It might be a tad over 8 inches but it looks very beefy. Also with all the parts.. I think the 100.00 price tag is being generous. Looks like a lot went into
Production on this.

Re: MIKE GIANT X Toy Punks Figure and there are 7 points of articulation plus a bat...
the bling bag Steregon has less movement possibilities, it is smaller but it has the same price tag...

Re: MIKE GIANT X Toy Punks Figure I'm so on the fence about this guy . . . as a new sculpt/toy I love it, but am kinda thinking the $$$ would be better spent on the older OG BxH stuff that influenced it!

the bling bag Steregon has less movement possibilities, it is smaller but it has the same price tag... Ed pointed out to me that my comment came off more as about the value of this figure. What I meant was that, regardless of how nice the figure may be (and the figure is fine, so good for people who like it), but I just don't think any collector is really wishing for a new $100 figure to collect these days. Those blind bag Sterogon's being an excellent example... people liked the sculpt, and they they just languish on a store page. For as clean of a design as this guy, maybe he would have been better served at 5" for $50. Spending a hundred bucks on a single vinyl, regardless of manufacturer has just lost its appeal.

Re: MIKE GIANT X Toy Punks Figure well, on my side, I don't mind paying $100 on such figure as I am almost 100% sure that there won't be any color variant  in this end, this may be less expensive than buying a 5" figure that will be decliner over and over...
