Post The Wonderful Colorful World of Victora Gavan
Josh did a nice review over at CollectionDX ( http://www.collectiondx.com/node/1712 ), but mine are different in terms of color schemes and rubbers. Gotta love the funk of these, and the black packaging with the colored foil is top notch!

Crying Japanese Pac-man says yes.

Those are so cool- and typically, so cheap. I can't tell you how many times I have had to stop myself from buying one. It didn't register before with me that these were from Gavan, same as that Popy Dol Giran that I have been eyeing. Hmm.

How do they smell?

How many versions did they release or were the combinations random?

So true about pricing. I was watching these forever, and finally I managed to snag all 3 for $10 combined! :D

In terms of smell, I don't recall. Not bad, I think. I took these pics several months ago. They're kind of a semi-hard plastic, not soft and gummy like they look.

I don't know how many variants there actually are.

Thank you for indulging my preoccupation with toy scents. :lol:

Whoa- didn't know the armor was removable (just looked at Josh B's review). I figured it was molded on to the toy.

This cranberry DelMonte Daniel Craig Popsicle might taste better. http://pophangover.com/?p=3905
Then again, that may be wrong too. :lol:

It makes me think of that bust the guy did in his own frozen blood a while back.
