 Maxtoy picked up by Strangeco! Eyezone with clear guts!!
Congratulations! Interesting that Strangeco made this move. They are now official distributors for Maxtoy products and announced the new Eyezone - clear purple w/ visible guts! way cool!!
ps. i put this in japan toys becasue all of the postings about eyezone had been herebut i guess it more properly should reside in american now, huih?

Great! That guts Eyezon is killer! I read about the Strangeco thing on the site today too, I have no opinion on it guess it's good if it makes things easier for Mark.

That's a killer eyezon! Strangeco or not, I can only see good things for this sculpt. I have the GID version and find myself unable to keep my hands away from. The new colorway with innards is definitely a must have.

I was hoping for a clear version but I don't really like the gold spray much. Hopefully there will be a unpainted version for the maxtoy club folks and hopefully I am at my computer when the email is sent.

good lord! that is one beautiful spud
Well, I think it's going to be okay for them to go with StrangeCo. At least they haven't sucked the life out of the market by doing "designer" toys and still (somewhat) stick to fan collector ideals.

At least as far as I can recall, the quality of items released by Strangeco has been top notch.

I got in touch with StrangeCo and was told they will not be selling this version. So, those interested should get a hold of Mr. Nagata, I guess.

I don't think StrangeCo will affect the Maxtoy stuff in any way since SC doesn't have anything to do with the manufacturing part of the toy. They are just acting as the distributor for the line.

Yeah... I think the subject line should be "Strangeco gets picked up by MaxToyco."

it is made in china, like all of strangeco other products. Seem like a perfect fit to me.
I do wonder what the clear vinyl will be like. I hope it is nicer than the veil and dero clears are.

I don't understand. If StrangeCo's not selling it then why list it on their online store's coming soon/pre-order page?

You tell me? I don't know, but e-mail them yourself if you don't believe me for some reason. StrangeCo. doesn't necessarily sell a lot of their products on their web site. Mark did say that they will be on the MaxToy site towards the end of the month / early next month.

the gid made me totally change my mind of the fig, now this clear is just pure awesome.
well, hopefully they figure out how we can get this and when. StrangeCo is a pretty distributor/company, so no qualms from me.

It says pretty clearly on the Max Toy homepage that Strangeco is handling wholesale distribution of Max Toy items (yet Max Toy will also continue selling the same items directly to collectors through the Max Toy site).
Not sure where people are getting the idea that Strangeco is involved with production.
