Pretty sure I know who's making these, and pretty sure they're not going to be easy to get.

Re: Got paranoia?
LOL. These also reminds me of the 1978 claymation feature Rip Van Winkle: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AuNh5lAH ... re=relatedLook at the nose and eyes. That feature was pretty psychedelic if I remember. Damn it I was about to post but someone beat me to the reference..oh well post anyway...

Re: Got paranoia?
Reminds me of Gomira too, if you like this, I'd say go buy some Gomira figures!

Re: Got paranoia?
I'm just speculating it's an American or someone on the board, again, because of the ongoing joke from the "Kozik Said Bemon Hates America" thread, like this is an extension of that joke.

Re: Got paranoia?
Could it be a new Bemon figure? Maybe Bemon caught wind of the joke and played it up. That's my guess.

Re: Got paranoia?
If its who I think it is, its not a board member and not someone that I think most of the people on here would be familiar with. But that's just a hunch at this point; I'm really not sure.

Re: Got paranoia?
The more I look at it, the more I feel like if it gets crazy hard to get or rare, fuck it, I'd rather get a Gomira anyway. I mean, it's cool, but I just keep seeing Gomira and keep thinking "well...it's not THAT different (the way say bemon is from hedorah, though clearly a rip of sorts) I might as well not lose my cool/cash and get something that's just as good!" Seriously not trying to "hate" and I'd buy one for a normal price for sure.

Maybe it's a simple political statement from a Japanese toy maker...who knows....

Re: Got paranoia?
Like the toys, like the punk rockness
(conflicted whether it would have been more punk rock to say it in Japanese and risk diluting the message to the intended audience, or would that cynically reduce the chance of US fans lusting after it?)
Not too jazzed on the xenophobic vibe, but maybe thats a joke.
I guess teh ultimate fuck u is to produce a toy people want and then not let them buy it - yeah! PUNK ROCK!

Re: Got paranoia?
Would be amusing if all you salivating collectors found out this was a KR product.

Re: Got paranoia?
It can't be KR product as it has more than 1/2 a thought put into the design.
