I'm surprised nobody has said anything about these guys.
I just stumble across it on Roto, but I think he's pretty cool.

Like it! Really like it!

VERY nice. I really like this sculpt, and the paint app is a great fit!

I haven't been this impressed in a while and have been waiting for this toy to release.
The character kind of gives me a Hobbit or Lord of the Rings vibe for some reason, but I love it.

I'd love to see this in gid vinyl! You listening, Kirby!?

I will defo pick one of these up it looks amazing

I did actually do a search before I posted this, but I searched for Lake Monster in american idols, since that's where it seemed it would be

I think he's really wicked! Glad to see I didn't miss the orange one, guess I'm gonna have to get this guy now
Do his arms move?

seems to be good here absolutely - seeing it first time. like him.
little dude looking very funny to me and with nice details. great project ...congrats kirby!!!

I like ryniaks work and this is pretty cool but from the front it looks like he is wearing a shirt? and why does it have cuffs, seems a bit out of place to me...

I really liked it till I noticed the cuffs/shirt/beard?
the beard is really bothering me.

The cuffs on his arms and legs are lame as well as the cutoff tshirt and little hat.

I like the colors though.

the arms do move. i got to check out the proto that Kirby brought to WonderCon earlier this year. it feels nice in your hands. i'm also hoping for a GID and clear version s, and some unpainted ones for us to paint. it doesn't even need a lot of paint to give it so much more character on something that already has a lot to it.

It is not a cutoff shirt and hat, check out the side and back pictures in the other thread for more details. The cuffs, however, are there, but they don't bother me. I'm liking this guy a lot.

With it being rotocast vinyl out of china clear is kind of out of the realm of possibility isn't it?

Thanks for the comments guys. We're having fun with this project.

Yes, he's kinda got cuffs, though I prefer to think of them as armor. I LOL'ed at the shirt/vest/hat comment. I hadn't really seen it before. Not sure I see the hat at all even now, but it's funny.

Clear vinyl is not in the plan right now....as mentioned, we're rotocasting these in China (but painting them here) so a good clear is not gonna happen anytime soon.

can't wait to order one of these tomorrow! been waiting for this release for a long time

I'm actually really, really impressed by this.

I dig the 'beard' (I have a massive one -- Zombeard holds a special spot in my heart), don't see the 'hat', I can kind of see the 'shirt' but like Kirby said, it appears to me more like a chest plate.

I haven't bought any Western vinyl in years, but I could see a couple of these guys in my collection.

Congrats to everyone involved on a cool toy.

I live on a lake and could totally see this little guy dragging himself up onto shore to catch some rays... maybe munch down on some minnows and tadpoles while wrestling a snapping turtle or something. hah'...!!!

those silly cuffs could be his armor to protect himself from all the baby gators and sandhill cranes that wanna eat him up...

Did these even make it online, at all?

I don't think it has a beard; I think it's a throat-sac, like some amphibians have.

yes, sold out in about 15 min

Cool, thanks.

CRAP! Damn meetings at work...

i like it
