 Re: Anraku Photos!
It is a one off by Anraku.

 Re: Anraku Photos!
It's not so much the sculpt but the texture that does it for me on Anraku stuff.
Great collection Ed !

 Re: Anraku Photos!
For the vinyl color alone, makes this piece a remarkable one---which color base vinyl is this, looks like dark carnation red or something...and that paint job, just WOW!!!

 Re: Anraku Photos!
The base vinyl is brown. It's definitely what made me intrigued about the toy as I haven't seen too many other brown figures at this point from Anraku. I vaguely recall a large goga from a while ago, I don't think I saved the photos though so I might just be imagining it.
The sprays are gold, green, and I think a little blue. On the surface it looks green when you hold it away to look at it. If you put it near some light you see that it is irridescent and changes to a green with blue hues. It's a beautiful toy and I'm super pleased to own it. Thanks for the kind words everyone!

 Re: Anraku Photos!
I'd bet that base vinyl is the result of some of Anraku's dye magic.

 Re: Anraku Photos!
The one one the left is from the same batch as mine. Spotting the differences in the old ones is really cool. They're similar but they all have touches that make them unique. I can't imagine how long it would have taken me to decide on one if I had ever been at a show looking at a table full of them.

 Re: Anraku Photos!
The texture on Goga's back is just fucking ridiculous. I've never owned an AA toy, and have never even thought to venture down that path, but his sculpts and paint applications are among some of the best, I'd say.

 Re: Anraku Photos!
This is AWESOME and I would totally LOVE for them to make this actual figure!! Well if they did I'm sure I wouldn't be able to get one, but man I would LOVE one like this BloodDrinker6969 wrote: pollard_hunter wrote: ^^ an absolute beauty...soo perfect!  *Edit: If I ever owned a Goga, that would be the one. *Wishful thinking*  If anyone ever wants to own a Goga, being choosy is generally NOT a good move Here are some more Goga pics. The original sculpt idea (or so we've been told) and some other YJA auctions from the past. Again, I may not be able to own them but I like looking.
