I know that Secret Base made a Skullbee that was clear blue vinyl with glow vinyl poured inside of it. Completely awesome looking. But did they do this -- or something similar -- with any other toys?

Gargamel did it with 2 Hedorans (orange crawling and a green walking) and recently I think Kaiju for Grown Ups did one with one of their sculpts. Koji from Gargamel said that it's clear vinyl and than GID Vinyl poored inside. I THINK the Bee you mean is the same deal. Clear blue vinyl w/GID inside.

Not aware of a clear blue Skullbee with glow vinyl, but there are these ones:

Yeah that's it. Blue/greenish I guess would have been more proper. Or teal? Aqua? Listerine?

That's the bee I was thinking of -- I'd heard it was clear blue vinyl with GID vinyl poured into it... So blue, aqua, whatever. I was more concerned about the technique than the specific color.
Love the way it looks, and wouldn't mind seeing more toys like that.

Dream Rocket Doguma (counterattack ver.) was also produced with a similar technique, I believe. Both in a painted and a sweet-looking unpainted version.
That Bee looks great. I was never too enthused about those releases (the box sets with artwork?), but, hmmm, wouldn't mind one after seeing it up close...
