Nekosaur is fierce! And my favorite color, too.

 Re: INCUBOT (USB Nekobots, Nekosaur vinyl, Nekosaur die-cast)
Yes, the vinyl figure's guts will be paper, not plastic.
The price for the vinyl is still being finalized, but Alen indicates it will be $79 or under. However, you can pre-order it now for ONE LOUSY PENNY.
The site indicates that the run size will be based on the pre-order numbers, so if you want one, click now or forever hold your peace...

 Re: INCUBOT (USB Nekobots, Nekosaur vinyl, Nekosaur die-cast)
Based on the proto shot I'd say produced by Gargamel and Japanese... the proto looks like glass.

I posted about this weeks ago and no one responded so I took it down. Glad to see there is interest. I dropped my penny too

 Re: INCUBOT (USB Nekobots, Nekosaur vinyl, Nekosaur die-cast)
It's definitely Japanese (specifically, Gargamel) vinyl. I have a couple crystal-clear Gargamel pieces and they show no signs of yellowing. Can anyone else comment on that?? Anyway, I snagged some pre-insert pics last week as well:

 Re: INCUBOT (USB Nekobots, Nekosaur vinyl, Nekosaur die-cast)
I'll take ten beige ones please.
Seriously... this guy has a really cool style to it that I think will take all sorts of paint jobs well.

 Re: INCUBOT (USB Nekobots, Nekosaur vinyl, Nekosaur die-cast)
Gargamel isn't producing this, Incubot is. It's not a Gargamel toy, although Ikeda-san sculpted it and I believe it's being made in the same factory that Gargamel uses.

Paint masking would be completely appropriate and necessary for this toy.
