Mutant Chaos is a vegetable creature. Ohgan Bat is a mutant created partially from Chaos.
The reason we call this the 'Plant Man' version, is because the colorway is probably based on an old Henshin Cyborg villain named "Shokubutsu Kaijin," which roughly translates to Plant Man or Plant Monster.

IMO this is one of the better Waldar Plantman homages - and a great choice of sculpt for it!

and i skimmed most of the thread and missed that it was an homage. double dumb

Yeah basically Mori was saying the flippers hone in on the OG 4 and pay less attn to the other figures. We hung out at the shop as the waves of flipers poured in seeing what the day's release was. Only a couple bought the bat.

"waves of flippers" - ugh - that doesn't sound good. Glad they are leaving the plant-bat alone!

I'll get to sorting out pictures next week when I get home. Haven't had the time to blog on the fly this time - sorry! 
(having said that, I think stealthtank has already done a great job posting new release pics)

Super7 will have these in a couple of weeks. The good news is we should have enough for almost everyone

Sounds good to me.
The Mav looks like the one-off from Black Parade last year. Very, very nice.

looks good.
it's sad to read about the flippers coming into the shop like that. I really don't understand that mentality. At least they don't buy *everything*....
that satan king is incredible!

 Re: Yeah, it looks beautiful next to the Fungus Chaos. Love the matching bottle green vinyl and the way that the thin red line on the Bat's head and the red "fingers" echo the Chaos' red eye. One of the best Bats ever!

Re: OOOOOOOooooo new bat ! I got this one (my first organ bat), and wasn't digging it. I guess I imagined it differently. then...it slowly started to grow on me. This one is really cool--the sculpt and the colorway. cool stuff.
