Post Hairy Matango...
...and other Matango kits

Just found these and thought I'd share

I'm sure I saw one of them in a recent thread of event photos and it was trying to be identified?

Is there a good supplier of these kind of resin kits in the US? They look like they would be very satisfying to build and paint.

One of the left I'm pretty sure is the X Plus Matango, just customized with paint. It looks exactly like the one I just got except a different color. The center guy is a recent kit made by Pao I think, at least that's what the translation I found said. It was in the Summerfest pics thread. Don't know about mr pits on the right...

I love the middle one... these guys remind me of that classic Elemental artwork on some of the green Magic: the Gathering cards!

Is it the X-Plus toy or a very similar kit?

I thought it looked very similar if not the same - I've just been comparing it to your Flickr photo

Those are awesome!

I wish I had the skills (time and patience would help as well) for kits.

From your second pics it looks different to your first. Yeah my wife has the X plus one. What brand is this Matango?

Sure you are, you're having visions of matango dancing in your head! :wink: Man those X Plus pics are great. Greenie looks good too. I wish I had that base! One day when I own a home I'm going to create a giant Matango diorama to take up half a room.

I think it's the start of some kind of fungus fever brought on by waiting for my Matangos to arrive from S7!
