 Anyone got the Skuttle X double black yet?
I probably won't see mine until early next month. This will be my first skuttle--and maybe my last? It looks feckin' rad, but I wonder how cool it is in person...
Anyone got pics to share? Any thoughts about it?

Does it have sparkly, black, gangsta-ass vinyl or is it just glossy black?
And how long is it across (guessitmate)? I don't know if you saw my collection shelf but there's not a lot of space. I got an aniballoon (it was one sale for $20) and was a little surpise as to how big it was. he had to leave.
Man! I really can't wait to get this one!

I love the new Skuttle Alpha design. Horns and skulls are always cool!!! Definitely the meanest looking Skuttle out there. Shell, head and feet are glossy black. Hands and chest are matte black. Really interesting!!
As for size, dunno, man. Skuttles take up a lot of real estate. Only 5 inches tall, but their claws make them wiiiiiiiide. Six inches across!! If you think your Aniballoon was too big, you're not gonna like this guy

Looks good! The "Double Black" versions are definitely rockin' that BxH style.

I've been avoiding these bastards for as long as I've been collecting. So many Skuttles out there and they're all pretty damn cool looking...staying off that slippery slope. Then again, I've been halfway through the ordering process on this black X twice so far before deleting the email.

The aniballoon wasn't as cool to start with, so I'm already gonna be more forgiving with the Skuttle. 5inches tall is perfect. Thanks.

When I do that, I just go for it. One time I let a figure go doing that. When I finally saw that it sold out, I kicked myself in the ass. One Skuttle won't hurt; it'll only help! Go for it!

Of course now that I decided to get both the Clear and Double Black...poof! Gone! I'm following your advice from now on.

Mine just came in today! HOLY CRAP, this thing has to be seen to be believed. I am totally impressed and happy with this one! If you were thinking about getting one, then get one! wowee.
While I'm at it, I also got Usagi-gon w/ clear green vinyl, too. WAAAAY better in person! Looks completely cool.
I'll probably update pics (if I can) of my collection. It's rad.

about 5 inches tall; a little taller if you lengthen his neck parts.
