Did you bother to read the first post in this thread?? liquidsky wrote: I'm bored so I'm going to start posting preview stuff here over the coming weeks. Posting it here cause the focus will be on western stuff. Alot of it will probably be kinda hard to look at like last year.... Meaning most of it is alot of western junk and I like documenting how nasty alot of SDCC releases can be. Not trying to change the focus of the board or nothing. Jeebus.

I think it's fair to concede that this particular thread (in the American Idols forum) is more about Comicon and dredging the depths therein than it is about strictly kaiju. If we were to talk about JUST the kaiju coming out at Comicon, we'd basically just need to go to the S7 Special Event site and leave it at that. For me, in past years, I always used to go to Comicon for the ART and PRINTS vs. 'Comic Books' so I'm pretty comfy navigating the side streets of a thing like that. In other words, even though Comicon is the largest gathering in the world for folks in our neck of the woods, we're still a VERY small minority in the grand scheme of things. MOST of the shit at Comicon is retarded...comics, art, and toys included. But, IMO, you gotta weather the bad to find the good sometimes. At least until the first San Francisco Kaiju Con, in which event we'll be bitching about 'who let Mezco and Jamungo in?' But then again, what the hell do I know.

 Re: Official SDCC 2008 Preview Thread (Spoilers)
The new Globby is cool, but the random sprays kinda annoy me. I think he would look good with a body painted solid like that, and a clear blue / purple / pink head.

Um . . . because people like Flynn, Biskup, Nagata, Martin, Kozik. among others, are Americans and they make kaiju.

Maybe we should be grateful that all the kaiju is not in this thread.

Um . . . because people like Flynn, Biskup, Nagata, Martin, Kozik. among others, are Americans and they make kaiju. And they make other toys too. And I fail to see the problem with talking about them too.

LamourSupreme, will these shirts be available after SDCC, or is it a limited run? Super badass shirt design one way or the other...
