 Color-change Dino-Tank. THIS:
PLUS THIS:
EQUALS THIS:
This thing is a lot of fun. The vinyl is nice and thick so that it holds the temperature for a while, and I got it off of Yahoo Japan for only 1,800 yen so that took some of the sting out of the auction fees.
On the down side, it's Dino-Tank.

There is no downside!
That's a radical figure ...
I've been looking for that color-change version for ages.

Glad you guys enjoyed the pics. Here's a Dino-Tank search at Yahoo Japan. When I bid on mine, there were at least a half-dozen of the Tsuburaya/Yamanaya color change ones at various prices:

I don't know the exact characters they use for the color-change aspect, so I just ran individual auctions through Google Language Tools to see if they were the right ones.
Tsuburaya/Yamanaya also made a green variation, but as far as I know it doesn't change color. (Maybe Frank can verify this?)

I used to keep mine in the fridge during summer, its so freaking hot here in the summer he was always orange. Also it was funny when people would come over and open the fridge and all that was in it was Dino Tank and some beer.

Haha, that's great. It's been pretty cold around here so this one is always brown, but if I rest my hand on it for about ten minutes it will change color slightly.
Frank confirmed that his green one doesn't change color. Bummer.
