 Adopt a Kaiju this Sale Super7 brings you Adopt a Kaiju!
Super7 would like to take this opportunity to appeal to the kaiju activist in us all. Many of our adoptees were found as strays by concerned citizens. Taken to local shelters assuming that their owners would surely come looking for them and take them home. Now scheduled to be euthanized Super7 needs your help. We are a no kill facility dedicated to the preservation of these wonderful creatures. Although older and many near extinction our kaiju are extremely well behaved, with sweet and loving personalities. Having been spayed/neutered they would be a wonderful addition to any family, grateful to live out the rest of their lives in a loving caring home. Now through 00/00/08, to help make your adoption decision easy, Super7 has steeply discounted adoption fees 20%-50%. Now these are faces only a Mothra could love!?!
We will send out an email to our mailing list tomorrow around 1pm.

This is wonderful but I hope it doesn't mean that S7 will be buying less of such kaiju to fill that shelf in the future (?) Some of my very favorite less-popular kaiju were purchased from that shelf ... M1 Greenmons, Yamanaya Dinosaur Tank and Aian, YMSF Godzilla...
Cleverly written intro. Kudos.

The nice thing about this, if I'm assuming correctly, is that some of the cool things on those shelves will be available to non-locals. Many if not most of those figures aren't in the Web store.

If you have gotten emails from Super7 in the past you are on the list. IF you haven't send Josh@super7store.com an email with the title: Tigers rule!
He will put you on the list.
We will post links to the stuff here after the email goes out.
Oh, I am so not Leecifer on KR but he does post stuff for me when I ask him real nice.

I always mix them up, but there are two relatively well-known toy customizers named Lee - There's H. Lee Porter and Lee Gajda. IIRC Lee Gajda is Leecifer, and H. Lee Porter is Shapeshifta ... but then, I could have those backward ... again.

The Hukkokudo Sumogons seem like bargains for what you get.
Same with the Hedoros.

What is that in the third row, bottom shelf on the left. It looks silver with black spots and one eye. Kinda like a zag?

And yeah I still pull quite a few commissions out of KR so I'm posting up the Super7 love over there. For the most part I just get blank stares, but good vinyl doesn't have to be all scary unapproachable. A lot of the fight figures are still a bit of a mystery to me, but the Flynn designed stuff is my new wkness.
If you're remotely interested Josh, Andrew Perry, and myself should be announcing an art show for next month shortly.

Kinda like a zag? the image on the site is a little rough, but i think youre looking at the b-club seabouzu. its a repro of a vintage bullmark sculpt. i think the character is a dude with his bones on the outside of its body or something.

I think the first (full-size) Smogons were the orange/green and orange/blue, both of those were released at the same time, IIRC. (But I'm just going from my famously faulty memory, so don't take that as Gospel.)
