 Re: Bwana - Cosmos Eaton
Has to be my favorite Eaton so far. Love the color of the body vinyl. Also the Black Eaton w/ Red eyes totally kills it.

 Re: Bwana - Cosmos Eaton
yea, but the toy is made by gargamel and bwana's past gargamel releases have usually been in that section.. but it's fine if it stays here
as much as i like this eaton, it would be even better if it had a clear body. but im guessing it probably wouldnt go well with all the other cosmos releases.

 Re: Bwana - Cosmos Eaton
Ugh, I kinda like Eaton MINUS that big fish head (I know, what's the point?) and I love the Cosmos vinyl. I may break and get this one and just store that fish head somewhere and let the Poop head shine. But the cheap-o in me can't justify buying something just for 3/4's of it ESPECIALLY when the 1/4 I dislike is something as important as a head piece.
I'm guessing, like Smogun, this will be a Gargamel factory paint, it looks to be at least.

 Re: Bwana - Cosmos Eaton
thanks guys. Vinyl will be like smogon and hedo. Going for a slightly dif shade each time. Should be a little trans when you hold it up to the light. This as far as I know doesn't have the little poopy head on the inside. I like that little head, but opted to leave it out (I think) since the black is opaque. It will come with a print as well, but still need to make the art. I don't think these will hit until towards the end of the month. Right after or maybe before the paris show. Personally i like any gargamel releases to be in the gargamel thread. gargamel fills my brains with a gleee that is matched by no other. American idol, esp responding in AI makes me feel uncomfortable. You know, like the movie that was uncomfortable to watch.

 Re: Bwana - Cosmos Eaton
Bwana, you could have opted for a dark clear gray head. I think that would be really nice. It would be dark enough that if there wasn't much light, you can't see through it...and when you hold it up, you see the poopy head. Translucent vinyl is really nice. I'd take it over transparent.

 Re: Bwana - Cosmos Eaton
If theres no poopy head, does that mean the head will be hard vinyl and not the squishy? I kind of don't like the squishy vinyl as much.

The black head does it for me. An eaton I might actually buy...

 Re: Bwana - Cosmos Eaton
This is much more restrained than how I usually think of Bwana designs, but his mastery of color is certainly there. Interesting and IMO the most attractive Eaton yet.

 Re: Bwana - Cosmos Eaton
NO POOH HEAD?! OK, I'm out. I was almost sold, but the Pooh head is a deal breaker. Too bad, Cosmos blue is so nice and I DO like the body. Is it wrong for me to call Eaton a "Butter Face?"

 Re: Bwana - Cosmos Eaton
i decided (though it was a hard decision to make) to stay away from Eaton's for my own personal well-being (actually, my wallets), but this one is really tugging on me!' maybe i can make myself believe that it would be for the cosmic collection, and not a return to collecting Eaton's.....
