go check out this new bad ass zag on the gargamel blog!!

Woah, Gargamel knows how to sell-out in style I love it.

yeah that thing is pretty rad!!

Thats the best Zag I've ever seen.

Even with the big 'HMV' on his stomach?

Guess you could always take out the guts.

Damn, this thing would look astounding if not for that. Matches the Cure Hedorah perfectly. I don't think I will be buying any toys that spell out store names anytime soon, unless it's more Ghostfighters that Have S7 on the gloves.

Love the paint, hate the letters.

I really don't mind on the HMV part.

Someone care to school me on what "HMV" stands for?

his masters voice?

does anyone feel that this a little too commercial?

Haven't got a solicit for it yet.

When? Where?

it could be written "I love W. Bush", I would still like this figure

When? Dont know. Where? HMV.

I'd love it more just because it would confuse and maybe anger people.

I don't know what HMV is, don't care, those colors ar great, looks cool.

Now that we have all clear Zag Bodies, can we get some awesome full sized clear Bakos? PLEASE!

massive company. puts me off.

Hhmmmm still don't care. The basic collecting rule: If I like the way it looks, I wanna get it. Regardless of it being a tool for some big company, that garbage never bothers me. I like the Col. Sanders (though he's his OWN tool) and Hamburgler.

I can see how someone would due to the fact , but I'm not punk enough maybe to give a crap? Or I'm just a hopeless toy collector, I like it: I buys it (within reasonable price standards.)

The more I think about it being a marketing tool for a big business , the more I kinda like it, makes me laugh. By the way, I'm in no means attacking anyone's opinion, just kinda stating my own, it's early and I've had no coffee and BD6969 w/o Coffee = MAD.

Final Verdict: I like it a lot, I'm going to attempt to find it at a reasonable price and than purchase it for my collection. The logo doesn't put me off, if people ask "What's HMV?" I'll make something up because I'll no doubt forget it's for this company.

The colour is really nice. Just think the logo is jarring. Couldn't they have just put HMV on the header?

Didn't they do a Zagoran for Coke or Pepsi a while ago?

yeah i think it was coke

yes,,,they did a coke zag...but it was sans logo,,,,so not so blaringly commercial as this one...

also,,,the coke one was made in extremely low numbers,,,so more a one-off advertisement than a mass made product (not sure if that makes a difference)...

i imagine this HMV zag is probably the same,,,very few made...

the colouring looks cool on this one,,,although i would not be buying even if it were available...

i am guilty of giving HMV my money though,,they consistently have the lowest prices for new release vinyl records...

Coke's energy drink, the name escapes me now, and it wasnt for sale.

the logo was a flame...came in a skinny red bull-sized can....

It's making me crazy now that I can't remember. Yeah, it was like the Red Bull can but black.

Competition's tough, and EVERY pachi kaiju co is looking for new opportunities - store exclusives, overseas co'ops, etc etc. IMO Gargamel has always had their heart in the right place and has consistently delivered great stuff for reasonable prices.

Nakano may be the next stop over on the Chuo, but Koenji rules!
