 Re: Vegetius Nor'easter Version
Love the vinyl color. The silver and purple sprays really set it off. Nice work.

 Re: Vegetius Nor'easter Version
This is purty! I picked up the GID release and this is a full sized figure. Looks like Viras & Gamera's love child.

 Re: Vegetius Nor'easter Version
I love it! I intend to make this my first Vegetius. Is that glitter in the vinyl?

 Re: Vegetius Nor'easter Version
Good gosh that is one chunk of beautiful vinyl! As a born and bred nor'easterner I love the thought behind this frosty colorway, and from the looks of it you pulled it off. And now for all the pink fans out there, I hereby advocate for a pink colorway. Seriously this sculpt begs for clear pink, with glitter and silver sprays...you know you want to.

 Re: Vegetius Nor'easter Version
WTG @ the glitter. I totally love the GID, but this one really serves the sculpt impeccably.
P.S. CollectionDX I'm loving your "Robeast Scorpius" avatar.

Pink was a close second. If this run does well who knows.... Glad you like it. Josh

Yay! The colors are perfect on the translucent blue vinyl. I was going to wait for Xmas to open this, but c'mon.

This guy can't really do jazz hands without inadvertently flipping someone off.

 Re: Vegetius Nor'easter Version
UPDATED Due to a random chance I figured out how to make the arms on this look better by attaching a second set of arms to it. I've got 10 for sale at a lower price. check it out here: http://www.collectiondx.com/news_item/0 ... ow_on_sale If you already got one with regular arms and you want to upgrade, send me a PM. Josh

 Re: Vegetius Nor'easter Version
^^ I love how he looks like he's flippin' the double-bird to everyone! ^^
That's actually pretty damn cool--I was always just sorta lukewarm on this sculpt, but this "Nor'easter" colorway is pretty smoking...certainly the best Vegetius colorway for this sculpt.
Improving the sculpt, in my opinion, by lengthening the arms, and adding what amounts to elbow articulation in a standard-size kaiju figure is fantastic. I definitely want in on an extra set of arms...
