 Sunguts Yukie-Ju 'Instructions'? Anyone get this new Yukie-Ju piece from Sunguts Honpo?
I think it's interesting, the mix of cutesy and beastly, but mostly I'm curious about what's illustrated on the enclosed card - See below, it appears to be illustrating and explaining some series of steps involving the figure and the card ...
What's going on there? Anyone who's got this in hand seen/interpreted it? Bueller?
Is it perhaps an optional tattoo sticker for her chestal area? (And if so, now that I think of it, I'm somewhat surprised that other toys haven't come with tats included - I think KR did some sets of stickers [for Munnys maybe?], but IIRC those were more like facial features - decals of different eyes, etc. But tattooed kaiju seems like a natural, somehow.)

It looks like instructions on applying a decal to the figure.

I wanted one just for sheer weirdness factor. Totally missed out on it, though.
Yeah, that does look like some sort of decal to me.

I was thinking about it because it looks just so awesome.
Plus it reminds me of my sister.
I showed her a picture of it and said someone made a Kaiju after her.
She was not happy, lol.

With all the pneumatic, gravity-defying Babe-O-Rama figures they do in Japan, is this perhaps a figure for Japan's indigenous ... ummm ... (is the term 'chubby chasers' considered to be beneath SB's approved degree of political correctness?)
