Post New blobpus?
Hey there's a new post on the blobpus blog

My translation is a bit off. Not sure if this is just an invitation to enter customs or if they are going to be releasing a new fig at this show.

Can anyone help?

I'm not sure, myself, but a Skuttle Docross seems kind of odd to me. I'd like to see a clearer image of that guy.

I think this is a custom Skuttle from the one-up show, where Kaji replaced the head with a Docross head.

I know this is heresy but sometimes I wish he'd ease up on the Photoshop effects. :-)

It does look interesting. I agree that a Touma/Blobpus collab seems unlikely, but that's half the fun.

Agreed ... no biggie ... the zoom blur just obscures the details a bit.

Kaji does love the photoshop.. usually he uses the effects to obscure details as a teaser. SOunds like I should pop round to One Up and take some pics.

Hey Datadub,
What gives with the low tech quality of the Japanese maker sites? And I thought Englidh was the language of business. Are they that uninterested in selling to the West? It would seem that there's this underground punk flavoring that permeates the sites. Please correct my misconceptions. Thanks,
SM

I don'y know about you guys but the non-english and the low-tech sites is what makes going to the websites more interesting for me.

It's more of a challenge and the low-tech is way funnier/cooler then the bells and whistles websites that are so cliche now.

Oh yeah, I love reading, make payment to the commodity with the commodity in mind Paypal first shipping when made...

It really adds to my collection not being able to communicate or make a transaction because Paypal says PENDING, then the seller cancels for no apparent reason. Can anybody say KT.

I've probably made around 20 orders with KT and had zero problems. They also respond to emails, pack well, and often have fair prices. Can't ask for much more than that. Sorry your experience wasn't better.
