Hard to believe - Shinto Gangu - the real x head toy store is already one month old today. As some of you may know, in Japan they love phonetic word play - and especially with numbers. Many numbers have 2 or 3 sounds that they can be represented by, so this provides quite a palette of sounds to play with to come up with mnemonic renderings for things like phone numbers and days of the year.

For example one way to read "3" is "mi" and the most basic reading of 2 is "ni" therefore March 02 or 3/2 can be read as "mini" - and since tomorrow is "Mini no Hi" - day of the mini - I am posting some shots of many of the minis lurking around Mori's shop.

rejoice...the gang is all here!!

That is just to much!!!! - that mini Evil and Bigaro skulpts just kick arse - I did not expect to see a mini bigaro so quickly

Damn!!!!!

JEBUS!!!!

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooo cool!

Mini BIG!!!!!!!!!!!

I am in love.

These are great!

Yes, Mini Evil!

Really hoping that the mini colorways also mean that the standard size figures will see the same or very similary colorways....like that clear with bright mutli color spray or the shiny gold one....

RHND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



*Looks like Mondo will be back at the store tomorrow!

AWWWW Dey soo cuuuuuuuuuuuuuuute!

So these are just shop lurkers, none have been for sale yet? Like I'd have much of a chance anyway hahaha.

I like that Mori just rips shit out now secretly. It makes it all so fun, I'm not a completist though.

Mori is tight lipped about which ones are protos and which ones are heading into production. adds to the fun!

As always...thank you for sharing. I am really digging these mini's..

Hell yeah it does! Secrets and surprises are part of the fun.



I'm hoping for that GID Bigs hiding in the back!

That GID big is an old release, sadly missed by many.

Really? Damn, I didn't see it in the Mook so I just figured. Thanks for the info though, now my hopes don't get high

too many minis. i still haven't nabbed a chaos yet. jeez, i'll need a whole shelf just for them now.

And a crap load of raisers

I wish I could, but I don't exactly live around the corner from the shop. I think I'm going to be having drowning dreams tonight.

I'm digging that mini bigaro big time. they all look great though. I hope they make a mini hone borg too. he would look rad all minicutified.

Thank you so much for the pictures datadub, I'm so stoked if these get released! Any chance you have a photo of that clear painted mini chaos beside the mini evil?

Lovely!

damn mini bigaro and evil.
the 2 mini chaos that are half pictured next to the mini shop opening bigaro look really nice to especially the clear one with spray.

I knew this was coming... I can't wait to get a few bigaros

the bigaro mini is great!

i dont think that glow bigaro w/ green was ever released. it appeared in some way old photos, but im pretty sure nobody was ever able to purchase one.

i really like how the mini bigaro looks so pissed.

He is merely feeling the non-love for the full size Bigs!!!

And yes Josh is correct - that Bigaro was never released into a production run. Maybe a one off for someone. If it was I would be hunting that fucker with an elephant gun!!

With the exception of Mutant Head, I was never that big into the standard size figs, but these minis are adorable! Must... resist...

Bigaro was never on my tops but the mini bigs are the best lookin' of all the minis in my opinion. I want a whole army of them!

I really hope they produce tons of these so we can get some! Blind boxed realxhead cases for 10 dollars a box (instead of 30-40 per piece) would be a great way to go!
