 T's Facto Gojira (and other garage models) questions Hey folks -
I came across this bad boy that was modeled by Nirasawa and wanted to find out whether or not anyone has ever ordered from T's Facto or bought one of their kits from another shop.
I'm also digging the godzilla vs biolante sculpt!!!
aw, heck, while I'm asking for help, I might as well see if anyone has a lead on Gigan:
Thanks!

T's Facto kits are great but hard to score- they tend to sell out very quickly upon release in Japan, and very few US retailers import them. Also, they're pretty expensive- if you can get them from a retailer, you should expect to pay $225 and up. They are kickass sculpts, tho, and look beautiful when finished.
Having said all that, your best bet for getting these is LA's John Tucky, who runs XOFacto: http://www.xofacto.com/
Great guy to deal with!

To all -- yeah, that's what I said when I saw those and the other kits they have! How it is that they haven't received more press for their amazing sculpts is beyond me...
You can check out their other releases (most of 'em sold out) on their site
Ungawa -- thanks for the link! I'll have to check out John's site. I saw that the yen listed for most of the kits were going to run me at least $350 USD, which is fine when you check out the size on these.
Thanks!

I don't think I could have one of those in my house, it'd scare the shit outta my cats.

If and when they make the next godzilla movie, I hope they make a suit like that first few pics.
that's awesome with gigan stomping the egg, kind of looks like squishing the larvaes out.

Good news for all who are interested -- I found out that you can just email T's Facto directly to inquire and order these! The people who run the site supposedly have a good grasp of English and deal with buyers directly! No idea, though on whether or not they ship EMS or SAL but I'd say if you're plunkin' down that much cash you'd want EMS
