Re: Angora Patio
It would be nice if rock bottom poor man versions ( unassembled, unpainted, no header, in a ziploc) would come out once in a while to counterbalance these All-Dressed Deluxe releases. I would try to buy one of those.
^^ Hey, even the Minutemen are down with this release.

Be careful for what you ask for Yes the OG frank is my fav. Not a re release without hair. So I guess the haired versions of the hedorah are next but without hair ?? All in all I'm not hating, the frankenrouge is my favorite homage and can't get enough. But shig kills it on paint so why not just evolve the paint job. When someone has the skill to do so and doesn't go for it is a missed opportunity. This is cool for those who missed the first release or liked it but not the hair. It's still not an exact re release so it's not that big a deal. I like the package but not so much the anti religious stuff. I know it's not Christ but upside down crosses I won't wear. Should have just used the image that was on the homepage, it's a bit more literal but I really like that much more.

Re: Angora Patio
I would like to see a Barom1 paint job, like he rose from the dead. Or maybe the negative colors of frankenrouge. Or maybe the frankenrouge colors on that new 4 eyed head ! Just saying, something more than just the same exact as the first time.... But without hair. That being said I would like the hairless 2 face

Re: Angora Patio
Art, tee and CD homages are killer! U saw me (not) pulling off that Westwood Muslin Bondage Shirt at SDCC09 so u know I could also (not) pull off that shirt next year...
Hope I wins!
Balding damage also gave me a laugh. I want a nag with one of those pull out extending hair thingies, so he can wear it short of long dependent on mood. Resin caveman styling accessories too plaese!

I am out of the loop on the price of the violent cavemen so I guess it's a good deal for the extras. Hey Greg, ask shigeru if Monstrehero can paint some, they would obviously be cheaper cause they would suck.

That is a one off. The first run had hair.This second run is hairless. The last NNN was 16000Y.That makes the tshirt and cd 9000Y.

And yes, I agree that 9000 Yen is a rather harsh mark-up for a T-Shirt & a CD... @Dikasaur: Thanks, but I pilfered that from SaintOfSpinners.

You can also notice the original haired version had an inverted paint scheme :

WHO KNOWS?! BOHEMIAN GROVE B!TcHEZ! Also the skull around the cross spells "Boryoku Genjin" right?

NNN is holding this lottery not Mishka so I presumed it didnt include postage.Normally it states the amount for the toy then you pay the extra postage when you win.So that would include an extra 9000Y for the tshirt and cd. The last release included Coops jump suit and omake for 16000Y.So to alot of people it is a big jump in price. Not that Im complaining I love Seditionaries and mix cds.Vivienne Westwood had a great show in Sheffield last year spanning her whole career.

I'm guessing if they were done by Mishka US, the shirts would actually have been cheaper - if I remember correctly, the Mishka Tokyo exclusive tees were 6000+ Yen? Besides, I think all the Coop collabs were priced at 16k, just like the regular Nags. The only ones that seem to be really steeply priced are the ones actually released in the US. Not hating, just saying/wondering.
