 Re: new Hukkokudo?
Here is Gabba's photo of an IKB and a Hukkokudo. I don't remember the size difference being so noticable. Maybe it's the positioning of the figures.

 Re: new Hukkokudo?
I'm really liking the Shamonger, does anybody have a better pic or know if there is a pupil on the eye, yes I'm weird about pupils

 Re: new Hukkokudo?
I know this isn't a Hukkokudo picture but just for good measure I'm going to post that photo of Jim Chapin and some of his IKB Hedorahs that I'd referred to earlier in the thread.  If you ever did biz with "bushnell" on eBay, that was Mr. Chapin. There's a nice memorial page for him at ClubTokyo.

 Re: New Hukkokudo?-new set!
The first two look like scuffed up vintage pieces. Love the two headed Ghidorah knock off, I recall Jim (aka VV) having one. A little pricey for the set.

 Re: New Hukkokudo?-new set!
Ralph do you know what retail will be on these? I just saw the mark up price which was really high.

 Re: New Hukkokudo?-new set!
Awesome! I'd love to add a Dabura to my collection, re-issue or not. Nice to see these guys are still going strong.

 Re: New Hukkokudo?-new set!
Are you guys on a mailing list, or did this get posted to a blog? I'm not finding these guys anywhere.

Oh but there is also a 5th "gift" standard figure included if you buy the set so I guess it's not bad even with his prices. Wonder what the "gift" figure is? Verrrrry interesting.

Ralph you need to hold onto the Hukkokudos this time!

 Re: New Hukkokudo?-new set!
I love these too but have to pass due to the price. Anybody want to split a set? Unfortunately I want the last two figures which I'm guessing are going to be the ones people don't want to give up.
