Post Reigo?
Anyone know what this is? Google's feeble translation gave me 'Reigo' but I've got no idea. It looks like the spawn of Godzilla and a fish.

There's some cool Kaiju stuff on that site. I'm not a big Gigan fan, but that gold/cream version is tight. But then again, for $300 it should be... :shock:

I think Reigo is right... (Here's a snippet from wiki)

Deep Sea Beast Reigo (深海獣零号, Shinkaijū Reigō?) is a 2005 independent tokusatsu film by comedian/fan Shinpei Hayashiya. Veteran designer Keita Amemiya designed the titular monster. This film's original working title was Reigo Vs. the Yamato (レイゴー対大和 - Reigô tai Yamatô).

This film, set in World War II, depicts the story of the real-life Japanese battleship, the Yamato, which is confronted in the Pacific Ocean by giant monsters, including the most fearsome of them all, Reigo.

Thanks for the responses.

Yeah, that rainbow Hedorah is crazy. The customs on the site are impressive, but, damn, $300? That's overboard.

Hedorah sporting his PRIDE colors for June, eh? Good for him! hehehe

I was under the impression that the Atelier G-1 Hedorahs were pretty big. I don't remember exactly, but I think they are 15" or something like that. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. If they are 15", then $300 isn't all that much for a handpaint of this size. I didn't see the watermelon Hedorah that they did a while back. That one was awesome!

Mmm...they're definitely not 15", but I'd say 10"-11". Bigger than standard size...but then again, Hedorah was huge in the movie, so in standard scale, maybe 11" makes sense. Anyway, the point is, they ARE big.
