I would love some white blanks of these to paint in sentai colors

about the square-ish feet. They seem out of place with the rest of the figure

The reversible head is still cool. Reminds me of the old Power Rangers toys with auto-morphing feature. They were my younger brother's... I swear!

Congrats David. Looking forward to seeing pics from the show. Anyone want to hook it up with the Super Puncher?

Pretty cool. Super Puncher looks like it would be fun to paint. I wish I could score a blank one.

STITCH has updated their info so I thought I'd post it here. Looks like we have a few flying out for this one. Amazing! Uglycon update and Super Puncher pics here: http://davidhorvath.blogspot.com Oh and did you guys see the new Dehara animation? Go here, push "skip" , and then click the red TV. Dehara showed us the original figure at his studio a few months ago but the final animation is incredible. here: http://www.meiji.co.jp/sweets/chocolate/kinotake/

Yeah...I get that...but they do look out of place when you consider that everything else in the figure is round. You can really tell it is referencing that because of the pattern on the body. I still like the figure.

It would be cool if he made a bigger vinyl figure for this guy to ride around in. Hmm... maybe Robotman would work.
