The paint had some details that were so subtle they seem like they might be shadow. The NYCC Garamon's hepatitic yellow retina seemed to be slightly lighter than the tiny yellow iris which was almost invisible because of the hugely dilated pupil.
The paint at first glance seemed simple but on closer inspection turned out to be kind of awesome in execution.
Anyway all hype or fighting aside its only fair to admit that they're really cool toys. Now I probably need to get the Mishka Iggy Pop tribute Raw Power version. So why on earth would you want the flesh Miska one?

I cant answer for Krudler, but for me, I've been a fan of Iggy for years, and Raw Power era Iggy is his peak IMHO, and the Raw Power tribute version just works on so many levels if u cross over as music fan/toy collector. I didnt even realize he had pubes until I got one - he is totally IGGY and TOTALLY Jp vinyl - like a nerdy yet rock n roll wet dream come true.

I find the painting excellent, subtle but refreshing

Re: Got paranoia?
If you own more than one Nag, they gang up on ya and eat your other toys.. as well as your pets. If fact the name NagNagNag is the mispronunciation of the sound they make: "Gnaw Gnaw Gnaw"

Re: Got paranoia?
I prefer the original head. I'm not sure it I'm too keen on the doll eyes either.

Re: Got paranoia?
Way to make it creepier, totally awesome! I was curious to know if a new head was ever coming. Nice color too, Double Stack face going on is great.
I can't say I have a preference, I kinda love them all the same.
