Post INCUBOT (USB Nekobots, Nekosaur vinyl, Nekosaur die-cast)
Alen Yen just launched the official Incubot site:

http://www.incubot.com/

Up now:
- USB Nekobots (KESHIGOMU!) series 1

Available for pre-order:
- Vinyl Nekosaur (SOFUBI!) sculpted by Kiyoka Ikeda of Gargamel

Further down the road:
- Die-cast Nekosaur (CHOGOKIN!) that will be hella fun to play with

He is serving up three of the major "food groups" Japanese toy collectors love to consume, time to dig in...

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...

Revising my answer: unsure right now, but probably just a couple of days. Pre-order. Now.

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 :)

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:

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.

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.

Ok, I stand corrected. Same vinyl as Gargamel, then.

appropriate...but not necessary. The 6" Marmit Mazinger Z comes to mind. It only has a mask for the head. I'm really looking forward to this guy.
