 Re: Toygraph Space Troopers
Those rock. Space monkeys rock.
Yeah, Sanjeev...I am a bit stoopid...especially since I mentioned the Black Hole Space Monkeys in a post just last week. The mind is getting old...

 Re: Toygraph Space Troopers
thoseairgams are REALLY cool!!! the solid red is hard to swollow for me, but the painted version adds a bit of sugar.

I believe they all have GID heads. The Painted ones don't shine through very well/at all. Mine definitely have clear heads that are painted on the inside. It's actually a really cool detail when you look at them closely. I was pleasantly surprised when I noticed.

 Re: Toygraph Space Troopers
Cornbluth is vindicated.
I still think these are quality pieces especially with the glow and the quality clear. Not $5-10 figures.

Not $5-10 figures. despite the similarity...it was still ridiculous to say that you could get 20 of the troopers for a buck at a swap meet. I have almost all the troopers released to this point, and although I didn't pay out the ass for them I still think they're worth every penny I paid. I really like them, and it has nothing to do with anything other than the toy itself. I used to think people were nuts paying absurd prices for RxH or SB figures...but if you want something it's usually worth it, unless it's an inflated value. With shipping, the troopers end up costing a little over $40 a piece to get here to sell in a store...so it's not an absurd amount to pay when they are $60 or $70 retail. I love em...though I'm not too into the ape. Excited about the others on the way, however.

Had second thoughts when I ordered them up they're great in their own way with the clear and the GID. Not feeling the Ape or the Nagata paint but looking forward to the saucer and other stuff.

Twas a bit of irreverent sarcasm to get a point across my old friend.

I like the red vinyl and the light green spray on the face....amazingly it doesn't come off looking like a Christmas ornament

 Re: Toygraph Space Troopers
Yeah I like this Ape more. The Nagata is just too primary for me with the red suit and blue gun. The one with the bloody chainsaw seems darker and more interesting to me.

 Re: Toygraph Space Troopers
The blue suit version is killer. He looks like he's been busy with that chainsaw.
But I like Nagata's too because it's a definite departure.

 Re: Toygraph Space Troopers
Resizing for beginners:
Scale down the image with photoshop, preview or other apps go to imageshack.us/ and rehost it (meaning point to it and then relink it etc)
Maybe something for the FAQ section..........................................................................
