Now I see why Skinner used Siccaluna for his sculpt design on Ultrus Bog. Amazing work. Wow!!!

Yes, that is very nice. I actually didn't like it unpainted. But this is a whole other story.

 Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 2/24/10
Some recent scores. Here's a mini Dagigon unpainted black. Third unpainted of Dagigon I've seen. Is there any unpainted mini Zags? Anyone?  And last year's Tetsujin28. Siccaluna's sculpting and painting skills are just amazing.

 Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 2/24/10
Great scores Choon. Everytime I see ANY version of a SK T-28 it reminds me of how much I want one of those boxed versions they had for sale many moons ago. Never see those come up anymore

 Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 2/24/10
Thanks, Chris. Saw a boxed version on YJA. Went for 38500yen  Ridiculous. Mine's the bag/header version. I think the boxed version has the same exact figure and was a run of 100. I guess the box-art makes it cool. There was one at Mandarake going for 15,000yen, but its gone. Retail were 10,500yen when first released.

A bit too anime punk for me ... Or Possibly based on Any member of Discharge, GBH or English Dogs (in their underpants) backstage circa 1982? Oi oi.

I like this figure posed and with profile shots showing its sides..similar to the photo shot of the unpainted white 2 pages back. Shik loves spikes, I love this figure. How tall is this figure by the way?

Actually Choon the version I'm talking about is the one that came with the stand:  This is the best one, not that yours is not really cool (it is), it's just the one I most regret not pursuing!

 Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 2/24/10
Yeah this was the first one they put out. I want to say in 2009 or 2010 maybe? They put it out in this color, blue or silver. Was really pricey. I think at the time close to $175-$200 at least. Came in a wooden box. EDIT: found the thread we both were in Choon! (LOL), too many toys to remember we talked about it before my friend: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=32748&hilit=+shikaruna+t+28+So yeah it was 2009. Unfortunately I no longer have the photobucket account to recall the pics maybe someone else saved them?

 Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 2/24/10
Speaking of T-28's, I really like the Black Tetsujin-28 Shikaruna put out in November. 10 made seems like it's still available on their site for those interested:

 Re: Shikaruna Koubo Database- updated 2/24/10
Some pics of the black T-28. Black is really hard to photograph without glares and noise. Sorry for the crap pics (there is another in mail day thread):    While it's not the Giant M1 Tetsujin-28 Brown version I desire so much it's still a fun toy. A little smaller than I thought but still nice. 9 points of articulation, some where you least expect (one of the wrists and the entire waist swivels). Actually maybe 7 points if you don't consider the jet pack tanks in the back.
