Me thinks they should! Well, to me at least, the Dorol looks a bit yeti like. He's a hairy beast with a demon like head. Oh and not to be a dick or anything but for this Purple Igaru to be super limited, sure seems like it's pretty available. Perhaps not?

Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 5/29/09 Just got this in. The actual figure is much better than the pics. A mixture of metallic and matte paint. Quite different from previous releases except for the Giant Zagora.

Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 5/29/09 Kurumonz- That is a beautiful fig!
Looks pretty damn sweet in the pic. Can't imagine it getting much better.

Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 5/29/09 Sorry, I meant the pic on SK's website.  This pic I took was with natural daylight from the window, pretty much exactly how it looks. Its is an amazing figure.

Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 5/29/09 Those pics highlight the scary features of this sculpt Melek--been looking at the purple version (also, lixx's avatar) from afar.

The scaryness of this guy has a lot to do with why he has become my new fav. Really great sculpt. Cannot wait to get my purple version.

Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 5/29/09 I'd like to see the original character this Igaru was based off of. What show was it? I know it translates somewhat to Mummy Man, and Marmit has their own version of this guy from a few years back (Mummy Man). Igaru definitely has one of the most irate looks of any kaiju I know...

Hes from the set of kaiju books that Shikaruna Re-Released recently that I can never rememeber the name of. Shin-no-kaiju or so something. I dont think hes been on a show yet.

Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 5/29/09 More Mummy Kaiju. I am a little obsessed with these right now. Need a red one!  SK's metallic colors are spectacular, but I think the green is my favorite.

Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 5/29/09 Wow Ryan! Those are neat!
That Blue one gets my vote.
How are those pointy horn trio---looks deadly.

Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 5/29/09 Thanx. I was trying to be clever with the purple Igaru's chest matching the green Igaru and the blue Igaru next to the yellow. nerdI really dig the 3 horns as well. And the boxy shape of Igaru's head makes him the Pitbull of the SK lineup.

Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 5/29/09 Hard to tell much from that photo, than the obvious beautiful SK use of colour, but the sculpt looks a lot cruder than other SK stuff ( not that that is a bad thing)
Maybe sculpted by another member of the SK team?
