to me they seem very 'safe'. it's not a bad thing, it just doesn't do much for me. i like the sculpt of the dokuwashi the best and then someone was over and said "it looks like someone chopped the top off of a palm tree".

While the packaging (featuring a haunted Victorian house) definitely has a Western feel...

...I think the characters themselves definitely have a Eastern sensibility about them, even Six-Gun. They look a lot like the mascot characters you see everywhere in Japanese culture.

the clear look is great for simple minis like these - I really don't like it on most mini's though cause you can't see the damn sculpt. All my pocket Kaiju are going to get a coat of Whitewashing Tom Sawyer style.

Bt yes the Ghostland figs are nice & the packaging is Top Notch - super classy...

not much discussion about the 'regular' sized Kaijin ghostland dude sculpt on display.
I thought it was very interesting...

This one really caught my attention when I first saw early pics of the SDCC ghostland offerings by S7. Any word on the what and when?

I dunno it looks to me like a combination of a ghostfighter and that sick print of the visible ghost... nothing really western looking to me...


i'm talking about the whole ghostland series in general.


The Ghostland figures are a bit "cleaner" if you will, but stomp and the rest of the snakes of infinity are hardcore kaiju all the way. Just wait and see, lots more gnarly monsters to come.

Leave it to a ghost to bring back a dead thread.

Eight years, that's got to be a record necropost... Great pic though. :)

Well, since it has been resurrected, here's a recent pick-up for a steal at a "garage sale"

Is there an interesting story behind these? The three are obviously by Kiyoka and I think the fourth is Chanman. Wondering when/where/why these were done. I'm guessing it was for the release of the super7xgargamel spider dude?
