 Re: just when you thought it was safe again......
Oh my deliciousness. Normally would say that GID rules, but the Purple/Blue one takes the cake. The potted GID mushroom is pretty rad too.

 Re: just when you thought it was safe again......
Damn! Those Matangos are WAY better than the clear ones just released! Of course it sounds like it's an event exclusive and not available through S7...

Hey Chris, you have Matango feelers or what? Man this are all killers! And wouldn't mind that clear Chibull myself. He'll make the perfect buddy for your GID Chibull.

 Re: just when you thought it was safe again......
LOL. Well Choon the interesting thing is I'm here preparing for my trip, not even suppose to be looking at kaiju, buying anything like that, but here I am (yeah I'll never stop no matter how hard I try). Anyhow I was on a computer (not my own) wanting to cut n paste the M1 go japanese characters for a search, and went to the m1go site, sure enough......stumbled upon this. Sigh

 Re: just when you thought it was safe again......
I like the green vinyl of the bottom sculpt.
I don't get into godzilla toys, but this one I really like.
...gotta find pics of other colorways now...

I've been instructed by my g/f to and I quote: "Not even think about bringing a toy for a photo op on this TRIP!" Maybe I'll find some random kaiju shop down there.....

I really like it as well. It's a standard size version of Bullmark's first Godzilla figure, the giant one...Bullmark never made a standard size so it's actually an original sculpt by M1. Just awesome.

It's pulled from the standard size Bullmark Jiras sculpt minus the bit around the neck. http://www.clubtokyo.org/listings/itemL ... entID=1485

 Re: just when you thought it was safe again......
Yes, same design as Jiras Scott, but so strange that Bullmark made that figure and not a Gojira. They would've still had to make a new mold for a Gojira because the neck fan is part of the one piece that includes the torso and head on the Jiras ...wonder if there is a story behind a Gojira not coming to fruition...maybe it was in the works?

 Re: just when you thought it was safe again......
The blue Matango is tight, and the little potted one rules!!! The chain with the steering wheel makes it look like something you'd pick up in a weird gift shop in the Everglades or something (and I mean that in the best way).

 Re: just when you thought it was safe again......
I love the little captains wheel on the chain - what a great touch! Actually, if I owned it I'd be annoyed by it, but I like the thought behind it.

 Re: just when you thought it was safe again......
That Chibull is mind-blowing...but those gid Matango's are must-haves.
Anyway, I, too, love that Goji sculpt. So glad M1 put that together!

 Re: just when you thought it was safe again......
The brown one sorta reminds me of the giant matango that Tavaro sold recently. Earthy colours, red eyes but without that spray.
