Post Exclusive Butanohana Color GID Dino (and Naked Cavemen) Set
OK, I know I'm going to kick myself if I don't land one of these, but it would be criminal not to pass the word along.

Keep an eye on the Grumble Toy Blog for a shot to land a set.

My color gid killers and crouching zags can't wait for their arrival.

Damn! I thought they had put up preorders when I saw this topic. :lol:

These are super cool, especially if you collect the old unpainted dinosaur museum models or had those little 80s plastic dinos that Roger posted about once upon a time.

I wonder what the pricing on the set will be.

They are really nice and nostalgic.

I like the quality of the glow vinyl and the fact that you can swap heads and mix and match with the Dinosaurs.

I was salivating when I happened upon them at WHF. I actually spotted them in the Butanohana guy's bag and was like, "What the fuck is that!"

So he took them out and let me take a picture. They were not supposed to be on display, yet. :lol:

Ever since I saw some of Ralph's butanohanas, I've been a fan. Those dino's are great.

And they are tough, tough, tough to land even in Japan.

Logang1 and I were in Koiwa at the Characters Toy Shop where they have one of everything (albeit priced very highly). We asked them if they had ever seen this super obscure and rare vintage toy, and they were like, sure we got 2 in stock. But when we aksed them if they had any Butanohana stuff they laughed and said "collectors don't sell those!" :shock:

I only saw 1 item for sale in all of the Tokyo shops I visited in the 6 weeks I was there.

Butanohana stuff is insane. I have a few dinos and some other random characters as well.

The quality of these is great and they're a blast to play with! :D

Ugh these are going to be so hard to land, most of grumbletoys releases are so limited.

New info on the Grumble Toy blog: http://grumbletoy.blogspot.com/

Man, they look sweet. I think I misunderstood though. I thought there were going to be 3 sets of different colors, but it appears to be a set of nine + cavemen.

Still no indication of the cost, do you think we're talking mucho $$$ ?

I got one that's bigger than a skullbrain and a deathra.

EDIT: I'll save you the trouble "That's what she said"

yes, they range in size, but none of them have the height or girth (heh) of a dragamel. I can measure them all tonight and come up with a median average. Ill display it in graph form to make geo proud. hehe. :) :wink:
