Re: New Gargamel Figs! If ever the Standard Deathra is officially released, can we say that he's probably the only piece from the modern kaiju realm that has the most number of articulation? '8 points' of articulation to be exact!

Re: New Gargamel Figs! andy wrote: Maverasu has 13. Oh yeah...  Or...probably among the standard size category, this Standard Deathra might have the most articulation.

Re: New Gargamel Figs! There's the Gigabrain Jet Jaguar, thats got like 15-16 points of articulation too. But I dunno if you want to call that neo-kaiju or a standard release.

Re: New Gargamel Figs! having to put qualifiers in front of "the most x" to make it true reminds me of the claim that the ferris wheel in yokohama is the largest in the world... with a clock.

Re: New Gargamel Figs! I was on the fence about the new standard Deathra, but after seeing it treated to the Thrashout colors... I'm liking it much more.

Re: New Gargamel Figs! It has the greatest number of points of articulation of any Gargamel toy. :3 Stiff competition from those pocket Zags there.

Re: New Gargamel Figs! Yeah, just not my thing. I'm not buying minis anymore, and mashups just aren't always my thing.
The head looks too off for me, it looks like it might topple over. Different strokes for different folks I suppose.

Re: New Gargamel Figs! atease wrote: it looks like it might topple over. Just a FYI he is weighted inside the Milton body. Stands firm. I understand him not looking like a great match up, but I really love the Mibora head especially with the KaToPe designs. That said I'd still rather have a large standard Mibora.

Re: New Gargamel Figs! I love the Gargamel guys, but they risk ruining their own market with too many customs being sold all the time. I hope they can just get back on track with more releases.

Anniversary Zag which was 7500 yen. But then the yen has been climbing I believe. 6800 Japanese yen = 79.1894 US dollars $110? $125?

Re: New Gargamel Figs! I think $110 for the Deathra but I don't have them in hand yet so I don't know for sure.
