Post Unusual Vinyl Colors...
Can we have a thread showcasing Kaiju/fight figures cast in unusual colors? I bring it up because of two recent pieces I've scored:

Image
Jeff's latest Greasbat in a shade of blue I've never seen a toy cast in.

Image
Image

and the Lobby Rangeas, which is a double pour or clear and black, but you don't see double poured vinyl all that often.

So if you've got something or know of a piece cast in a color you don't always see post it here! Bonus points if its unpainted! ;)

I definitely think Plover's Mother of Pearl Bemon fits the criteria as well.

is there an extra charge for mixing custom colors? That really opens up a whole plethora of ideas Chad!

Double pour looks pretty effing sweet too...

I'm normally a big fan of clears and glitter, bu I've been pretty enamored of the black and white marble vinyl of the SDCC Dokuro set since I got it.

Naked bubblegum pink has always seemed weird to me. Especially on a Chaos, it looks pre-masticated. Works though, I love this version.

Yeah these are all what I was talking about. I really like that Gomess (thats what that clear green & aqua is right?) a lot, who made it?

I think I prefer the Dokuro King over the mini, but both are cool, and yeah that Chaos does really look like chewed gum.

All three of tese NYCC pushead exclusives are freaking sweet- I wonder why marbled vinyl doesn't show up more often?
