 Re: Anraku Photos!
My point was more "if it were up to ME, I think it's way too similar to the regular blue release for me to purchase that specific one" And more on topic, a one off nue

It could have been "sold" the second it went up, that happens, like it sold in store but they still toss it up to rub our noses in it hahaha. I'll pretend that's what went down, somehow feels better. As I remember, it's stayed for at least 5 minutes before sold..... I think this nue is the second best after atease's one off nue. Never like any version of nue (excluding atease's one off) but this one blow me away.

 Re: Anraku Photos!
I also think that this blue mandarake sold NUE is just a "variant" and not a one-off... at least that it comes with a header card speaks for a "production" run ?? (custom = w/out header in most cases). Unortunately this one with painted belly looks better than the other common known one.....
and here´s the paranoia....the yellow drunk boy for 200.000+ yen is sold now.....i doubt !!!!!! I think it is pure price-manipulation for future sales.....im sure it is not sold and maybe never really was for sale .
Amen

 Re: Anraku Photos!
Waited 2 days for the confirmation email..... Luckily it was available.... Definitely not variant (usually slightly different paint, extra stripes). It's too different from the normal blue release, painted head, belly, back, claw and extra painted head. Guessing is a Proto....

Wow Max!..I've never seen that version of the hazard figure on the right. I had only seen pictures of the green and blue painted ones.

 Re: Anraku Photos!
Really incredible collection shot.
I had a Goga at one time, but honestly didn't understand what the hype was about...I know that toy is absolutely revered and it didn't resonate with me. Maybe because it was unpainted.
BUT! I recently scored one of the blue NUEs and I love him...makes me want/need to score one of the matching Cambodias (though this photo makes it look like the Cambo was an alternate head to a NUE...can anybody confirm that?)
Either way...that black collection is....amazing. Really awesome focus/dedication there.
Thanks for sharing.

 Re: Anraku Photos!
Cambodia has the same body. That version where the head is an extra is alone to that 1. I've never seen it before. There are clear blue Cambodias w/no Nue head BUT I want to say there's only 10? Cambodia's always more limited then Nue it seems.

 Re: Anraku Photos!
Thanks BD. I'm doing my absolute best to not 'need' a Cambodia to match my NUE. I feel that I am slowly losing that fight. Strife!
