that's weird. Wierdness should just be accepted these days. As an admin you can probably run isp searches if you really suspect something is afoot.

 Re: New Head
stop posting information if you don't know facts. and i'm talking to an 11 year old anyway...  well i dont think there is anything regarding IPs Krudler. i just don't want one of those stores or their owners getting bombarded with requests when the info hasnt been released yet.

 Re: New Head
I'm pretty tempted by the Akro, but I'm being REAL strict on all my toy stuff for a while now, so I gotta walk away. Looks cooler than the original for some reason to me.

 Re: New Head
So I'm trying to verify what the directly correlating (if any) fullsize Akro is for this little guy...
In consulting my Mook, it looks like it's the MA-01 paint job, but the vinyl color in the Mook definitely looks RED, where the photos of this fella and all the chatter surrounding them definitely point to PINK. Is that just printing/photography at play?
Not super duper important either way, but--as a recovering Kubrick/Bearbrick fan--there is just something about having the big version and little version standing next to each other for me, and I'd like to know which Akro to put in the crosshairs.
Thanks for any help. If someone had photos of all these characters lying around, I'd definitely be down to build a website/backend that'd reference all this stuff. I imagine that'd be a bit like broadcasting a treasure map though. Go fig.

 Re: New Head
I think they are of the same color vinyl. sort of magenta or something--but I'm not sure.
