Really? Need to drop by, those are nice. How tall are they, or I guess my real question is will RxH fit well in them?

slack, no, it's not from the mini blind packs (but lets here about those) It's a full scale vinyl piece measuring 10" high and about 7" across. The figure removes from the flower globe and the flower globe opens up to reveal a cd inside (not a player). The inside also has a beautiful lotus blossom up in the dome. The flower ball can also be removed from the "murakami eyes" flat piece. mr wink has bendable arms and legs so he can strike a variety of poses. i believe the edition is 300. the highest i've seen one go on ebay has been $5,000. Two, however, have sold at proper auction houses in the past couple months for $20,000 and $24,000!! yeah, i'm stoked considering i got mine only two months ago and paid $1500.
Damn, I could have bought this for $400 when it first got on the bay... even then I thought its over my budget.

First let me say, SmilingIdiot that K x P is fantastic!!!!
My toy year was very shallow since I've been trying to cut back. The wonderful thing about my favorites this year is that, aside from the pieces themselves, it is the help from friends, new and old, who helped me obtain them that I puts a smile on my face every time I look at them. You all know who you are, and I thank you once again!

no. i'm right there with you! I was thinking donnierobot is a very lucky boy if he has a gal who goes all out and makes a stocking with blobpus on it for his xmas!
i hope you gave her something equally as cool. if you didn't, there is always the new year (dont let that one get away!)

dumbest thing i've read all day.
dragamels are ridiculous looking and to even mention them in the same breath as a hand painted pushead piece is blasphemous.

But he is cool. My biggest regret of 07' is passing on the War Dragon. I also regret selling my Black and White Usugrows

I wasn't really feeling the sculpt. I'm fine with having just the smoke color one for now.

My biggest regret is being too much of a tightass to even try at $600 retail!
Fingers crossed another clear with spray detailing shows up at some stage!

I had to focus my collecting a bit this year after opening my store, but I think I still did pretty good.
Probably my favorite Gargamel item I own:
And many thanks to Koji!
