 grumble's Chou-cho
Saw this on Grumble's blog. Vintage spooky /clunky looks. This is a real winner in my book.

 Re: grumble's Chou-cho
I dig and at 3 inches tall too. I was thinking it would had been bigger but I think smaller is better with this sculpt.

 Re: grumble's Chou-cho
This might be the best "North American" kaiju I've seen. So true to a vintage kaiju look, like an old Bullmark. They knocked it out of the park!

 Re: grumble's Chou-cho
I like the colors on the front. Not so much on the back. But other than that, it's a great little sculpt. Looking forward to future versions.

 Re: grumble's Chou-cho
I like the front. Wish the back had some texture and different paint. From Grumble Toys Blog:

 Re: grumble's Chou-cho
^ Maybe that's because the pic is so huge. Shrink it down to 3 inch and I think it will look great, with a little more colors on the tail or something.

That being said..I kind of like it. Perfect size and really cool head. Paint scheme is a bit muted for my taste but it's definitely a winner.

 Re: grumble's Chou-cho
I did, but no photos yet. I like it a lot, it very hard vinyl and it has a mean/crazy face. It's very small though, like 6cm.

I was just going to make that same comment. Way richer colors. Congrats!
Think I'll be ordering one w/in the next week.

 Re: grumble's Chou-cho
Just went over to GT to finally order this. Sold out. You snooze, you lose. Good for GT though.
