 One of a kind (?) Gamagon Not For Sale (Before you ask!)...
Spotted this in a display in Gargamel's Thrashout store yesterday...
Apparently a test shot of the glow version!

Hey Koji, you mean THIS one:
http://ningyoushi.com/product/ART055
Don't think so...
And jordanicus, it's orange, dayglo orange, not red.
Sorry, but this was the best shot I could get. It's in a small showcase with a fluorescent light directly above it. There's actually more orange on the top of the head than there appears to be in the pic, while the chest is in shadow so it looks darker.

No, that's not the Ningyoushi exclusive. That's the print and figure exclusive.
The Ningyoushi exclusive was a Ningyoushi store only release and did not come with a print. It was glow with orange.

Holy Crap! Are there any MORE (glow) versions?
Geo posted some pics a while ago of what looked like another colorway...*
You there Geo?
How many of these things ARE there???
*(oops! looks like I was wrong about that anyway:

This is the Super7 version.)

I am not absolutely certain, but I believe only one glow version has been released so far, with another one planned but not yet released. The rumors are that the next glow will be a red one.

There are two glow versions (Ningyoushi and Super 7), and then there's last year's Comic Con version done in yellow but it's not glow. Then of course the standard release and the print exclusive.

I'm sure glad I like the most easily accessible version of this the most.

What was the color scheme?
I am skeptical that the Ningy GID version exists, but am happy to be proved wrong.

I'd ask Chris from Gama-Go to be certain.
I have never even heard of a ning exclusive Gamagon. Nor have I seen one on ebay within the last 2 years.
I think if it was a regular release we would've at least heard of it.

I did a google search and didn't come up with Ningy selling anything but the standard issues.

So then, just to recap: We may be looking at a planned new release here,
but we're gonna have to GO BACK IN TIME to get it ...
Is that about right?

yeah there hasnt been a ning release. only one glow so far. i was under the impression that it would "glow" red, not "was" red (youd be able to let us know for sure). when tim posted that the yellow callis were finally released from their chinese prison camp, he posted this pic in which you could see the yet-to-be-released red glow gamagon sticking his snout in:
the one at thrashout is probably a prototype though.
