 Re: Target Earth Bagun
thanks for the post! i must say, i have always been turned off by the Bagun--but, now i see why. the TE version is strict simplicity, while the Marmit ver. is ostentatious--IMO.

 Re: Target Earth Bagun
Love the Target Earth version, looks like an actual toy made for a kid to play with. Are there other releases besides the blue?

 Re: Target Earth Bagun
This TE interpretation of this guy is by far my favorite of them all. Yuck is right, this just looks like it was really made for play. Great toy.

 Re: Target Earth Bagun
I love both of em, can't decide which one I would prefer, I like the simplicity of the TE but that Marmit would tear the TE up in a battle.

 Re: Target Earth Bagun
The Target Earth version seems like something Bullmark might have produced in the 70s- very smooth and stylized. Great find! I'm still looking for one of those.

Most definitely. Smooth, chunky and a bit cheeky/cartoon like. he looks a bit TOO much like gargamels desura, Ialways imagined bagun as the more hardcore of the two. i like the sculpt thou over all just wish it had the flat face, and qued horns

 Re: Target Earth Bagun
TE's version is definitely closest to the book's image in color and sculpt... (Pic swiped from Mallum...I haven't scanned mine)

 Re: Target Earth Bagun
i don't know a whole helluvalot about the character other than what i have seen in sculpts, but i don't really dig the whole ball on top of the horns/spikes thing. but other than that small dislike, the rest of the TE sculpt looks great. i like the wings detail, they are more angelic like than straight scary, hideous monsterish....
