 Re: New Elegab sculpts!
I see prices are going back down again. Nice! After some back and forth I'm going with Type A this time.

 Re: New Elegab sculpts!
Difflicult to choose between the 2 pain jobs... But I do not like the "eyes" rendering on type B.
I still find strange he chose the green vinyl as a base for this first version. A flesh tone would have been better. But the scultp is nonetheless exceptionnal !
He keeps a fast pace on design & production and what a kick-off for 2011 releases !!!

 Re: New Elegab sculpts!
I really love whats going on with this sculpt! Even better that Nari-san decided to lower prices. I would speak for the unpainted one but my wallet isn't feeling it at the moment.

 Re: New Elegab sculpts!
It's partly the reason I didn't go for King Smog (yet). His figures are really hit/miss with me. I love Tonneran, MPC, Hitogomira, and King Smog...the others I'm not so fond of. And of the ones I like Tonneran is the only one that isn't a shelf hog.

 Re: New Elegab sculpts!
Shuttlegon is amazing though too and isnt much of a shelf hog. The perfect size IMO

 Re: New Elegab sculpts!
I love the zunogon sculpt, such a great piece on a smaller scale.

 Re: New Elegab sculpts!
I'm not feeling either painted version. Do I get a blank, or wait for version 2?

 Re: New Elegab sculpts!
I'm not feeling those painted versions as well, but the base vinyl color is amazing and speak well for the sculpt. Since I did'nt like any King Smog and Oil Shock colorways so far either, I think I'll just snag a unpainted bluegrass one.

 Re: New Elegab sculpts!
I think what I really enjoy about the Elegab sculpts is the roughness of the textures, and the almost "imperfect" look to them. Hopefully i'll be able to place an order on this bad boy before payment closes.

 Re: New Elegab sculpts!

 Re: New Elegab sculpts!
Guess I'm in the minority, as I think both colorways look good. And I didn't think I'd like this monster based on the drawing...but seeing the final sculpt painted up has changed my mind.

 Re: New Elegab sculpts!
No you're not. I find both the sculpt & the paint job amazing ! Kaiju meets Dante's inferno ! The only thing I do not like is the eyes on type B.

Type B reminded me of a giant pile of shaved ice. Had to get it!

 Re: New Elegab sculpts!
I did a bad thing. (hope I win). Type A has got me eating my hand.
QUESTION: the Dokuro Tarou figure--all have a human head under the mask or no?
