 Re: New Gargamel Figs!
I agree with Joe that spoilers should go in the Gargamel Spoilers thread, but I am really looking forward to seeing the "spoilers", as I am sure many who are waiting to learn what the various mixes in the Lucky Bags for 2012 are too! I want to see pictures!
And, I truly do not think that it will matter to me, and to many Gargamel fans, sales-wise, if we know what is basically inside. In fact, it may boost sales.
Aren't most of you anxious to learn what are in these bags? And, if you are not, as long as it is posted in the spoilers thread, as Joe recommends, you do not have to take a peek.
Let's see some pictures and get some info.

 Re: New Gargamel Figs!
But there's no need to boost sales because LBs sell out every year in a matter of minutes.

 Re: New Gargamel Figs!
Looks like that bread bag clip figure that we saw a while back is ready to go. http://shop-bts.com/goods/bts-gds-006

 Re: New Gargamel Figs!
I'm guessing that the things on the side of the head are probably supposed to be a lever from a toaster. The belt buckle looks like one of those individual serving pads of butter you'd get at a diner...
What the hell. The sculpt is well done and I like that it looks like a suit, but it's way too comical for me. I'm sure others will love it.

 Re: New Gargamel Figs!
I'm not surprised that they sold out. Good for Gargamel, and thank you for the update. Hopefully future releases will make it overseas.

Have US distro's indicated that these will not be offered here? Woulda been awesome for some unpainted varieties of that dude to make their way into some LB's.

 Re: New Gargamel Figs!
It's been awhile... So any update on the company? I hope the move went well and they come back soon.

 Re: New Gargamel Figs!
Apperhantly they had a killer blowout sale, when the store closed down, I really wish I had been in Japan for that. I hope they start producing more vinyl, so much talent from that crew to leave the scene hanging.
