 Re: New Collab
I'd like to see the whole astro mu set ...but they need clear vinyl and pipe cleaners to make it great

 Re: New Collab

 Re: New Collab
Awesome. I'm surprised that it can stand without falling over.

 Re: New Collab
With a different body (most substantial) I would probably like this. And yeah, clear vinyl would be a must. I'd like to see how the Astro head works on a Skullbrain body...maybe with a new arm sculpt too.

 Re: New Collab
The only thing missing are some big Mickey Mouse ears. More is not always better. This screams out for some good editing!

 Re: New Collab
this is an astro mu homage?? i'm sorry but it's so far removed from what astro mu looks like whatever character homage it is trying to achieve/project it fails

 Re: New Collab
Like it. The bright primary colors are a great nod to the blinding color schemes of vintage super robot and tokusatsu toys.
Although I hope there is a head under there or something.

 Re: New Collab?
This toy is named "astro-mutan" and is produced by not SB but CONVEX. And this one is made like astro mu 5 as CONVEX explained in their Blog.
SB will deal and sell this astro-mutan but I don't know they can accept the international order of this. (Source is CONVEX Blog post on May 24.)

 Re: New Collab?
The vinyl on it looks distinctively SB, wonder if they have the same factory. I suppose this needs to be moved to japan toys, I will change the subject accordingly
