 MEGARA the Turtle Beast
Just thought I would drop a note that my pre-order has just opened up on my Little Turtle monster Megara. Here is a pic front and back  He is a two part vinyl monster with his body being one piece and the face mask shell his other. The first release will be in black vinyl and glow in the dark. I'm very excited that he is being poured as we speak and should be coming from Japan very shortly after.

 Re: MEGARA the Turtle Beast
Looks awesome, though I have to say I much prefer the test pull colour vinyl. Does the shell separate? I am thinking of awesome storage options

 Re: MEGARA the Turtle Beast
Yes it does seperate, it's the joint. I am looking forward to swapping the black and gid parts. I am also going to do some painted chase ones as well and randomly inserting them in orders. I want this to be fun.

 Re: MEGARA the Turtle Beast
^^ Heck yeah, that is just what I was hoping. How long is the pre-order going to be up for, or is it a set number?

 Re: MEGARA the Turtle Beast
I think right now I am going to have it open for a week. I may have to shut it down sooner, but I will let everyone know. Right now it's at a week.

 Re: MEGARA the Turtle Beast
Butch, you know I love this toy. For those that haven't held or seen Butch's toys in person, the texture and detail is amazing.

 Re: MEGARA the Turtle Beast
Goddamn is this sculpt awesome. Just preordered a GID. Really excited to hear that orders might have a random one off. Id love to see a GID hand painted by you. Please post pics of any of the one offs you end up doing.

 Re: MEGARA the Turtle Beast
He's close to 3.5" tall. The original sculpt was bigger so with wax and molding there is some shrinkage. No all I can hear is George Costanza, shrinkage, it was cold!!!

 Re: MEGARA the Turtle Beast
I really like the front of MEGARA. It works well but was not sold on the back/face part. However, after reading the writeup...I must say that it really works quite well. Great backstory and congrats. Can't wait to see him painted up.
