 TOUMA DESTDON at MONSTOCK
OOOPS!!!!! I saw the Monstock guy the other day and we talked about the fact DESTDON is the correct spelling, NOT Destodon. Sorry folks!!! When I translated the kata-kana I took the phonetic sounds literally. Went by Mostock the other day and he has been busy painting up a few mini and standard size Destdons in a bunch of colorways. I think a few of these have been released already and more planned. The pink one coming soon looks really nice.

 Re: TOUMA DESTODON at MONSTOCK
Those are some beautiful colors. I think the GW Lottery one was amazing.

 Re: TOUMA DESTODON at MONSTOCK
I really don't like Touma, but the standard size looks alright. I won't be buying one, but I wouldn't turn one down if they were given away for free.

 Re: TOUMA DESTODON at MONSTOCK
So are these kinda like Tim Biskup's Dragamel (but not by G)? I've only seen them once before, but I've never heard anything about them on this board.And unattainable huh?

 Re: TOUMA DESTODON at MONSTOCK
Did you pick me up a Goga while you were there?
Or at least an ugly vintage shirt?

It's a collaboration between Touma and Monstock, and an original character. I think it may have been discussed a while back on the forums when the prototypes were displayed. I wouldn't mind a standard size in the flash green vinyl. It looks like translucent green with silver flakes?

 Re: TOUMA DESTODON at MONSTOCK
The mini pinks look pretty sweet. So if someone was to try and attain the unattainable, how would one go about it? Even with google translation I can't seem to locate a mailing list sign up off the blog. Probably way out of my price range anyhow...still interested nonetheless.

 Re: TOUMA DESTODON at MONSTOCK
The red/blue and orange ones are pretty cool, but I have to agree...when it comes to ridiculously rare toys the Destodon just doesn't do it for me. Touma's stuff is just too "clean" overall. I do like the super-long arms and back spikes, though!

 Re: TOUMA DESTODON at MONSTOCK
When I first saw the test shots I wasn't into, at least from the neck up. But it's pretty tight with paint, I like the mini more though.
If they were readily available and not too bad on price I'd consider it, but not enough to fight for.

TT had a handful of the pink and black minis for KINYC...they were $45...very cool little sculpt.

 Re: TOUMA DESTODON at MONSTOCK
Love the minis. Not so hot on the full size...
Wishing for just one for my collection.

I stumbled upon the image of a pink mini on TT's site a few weeks ago, but they were sold out. I asked about restocks but was told it's unlikely. If you have different info let me know

Want one... why are these so hard to get? not too difficult for the regular releases now as long as you are willing to pay. plenty being resold of late. the minis though is a different story.

 Re: TOUMA DESTODON at MONSTOCK
I don't like the original but the Nise version is pretty rad. Still, I don't think I'd ever put effort into tracking one down.

Isao-san told me they weren't sold as a regular run, but were made available as a special release (I can't remember the exact details).
