That's what it looks to be... but I don't ever remember anything like that being released

Does it glow?

there was a clear vinyl with gid fill zipface...



looks like that version, dyed pink as a custom?
either that or its some super rare proto that was never released

I was able to get another sealed GID Pumpkin for a decent price.



Now I have an opened one

^^
i am happy i am not alone being crazy in collecting multiples LD!

is the Blue Obake GID?

yes. one of my very first SB figs.

Maybe this is old news (?) but I really like this Skull, with the Bounty Hunter Logo on it, it's simple but looks great.

Slipstar, I believe that skull was for some sort of benefit-show in Japan a while back.



Was browsing around the old parts and came across. Just had to repost onto the newest page of this thread. SB suits are fucking awesome! Especially the Death Phantom.

Anyone know mezza9iner and how to get in touch?
Other than PM.

Yep. (what Winu said)

I never get tired of seeing pics of mezza9iner's cyborg collection!

He has a very fine line-up. Wish I had the space to assemble mine together like that.
No Phantom 8 Men though?

I still need those Yellow/Orange Death Phantoms too.

Speaking of Death Phantoms, in another setup of mezza9iner's there is a Death Phantom I've not seen before.
Any ideas on the one at the very right of this pic? Looks silver spray on black. Custom? Production?

Do you mean on the very left? Looks like black with silver spray? At first I thought it was the maroon with silver spray, but just poor lighting. There was an unpainted black, but I've never seen a painted black one...

Damn it.
Yep - the Death Phantom on the very left.

Same paint app as the maroon, but black vinyl. It's possible it's simply a proto-black custom mimicking the maroon suit.
I'd never seen a painted black Death Phantom before I saw these shots from mezza9iner.

A better shot -



On second look, the black and silver suit doesn't look as jet black as the blank proto.
Hmmm, dunno.

Interesting...
Could be a custom, or it could be some special secret release. I know there's a special secret Death Phantom out there that I've never seen pictures of (but would LOVE to if the owner is willing to show it off), so this could be another one.

Wow. Never heard tell of a special Death Phantom.
Maybe Guy or Muton could chip in with some info?

Guys what is the secret to getting the boots on to these guys? Could I be missing a part?

It seems like the ankle is too wide to get into the boot.

Sounds like you might be using the later Cyborg '99 bodies that have a wider 'cuff' at the ankle from memory - plus the calf is wider too maybe.
At any rate - the suits are made for the original Henshin Cyborg body style. There are various bodies that people use, but personally I stick to the OG Henshins and some Obitsu bodies.

Love his Croc on the left. That color is badass.

that explains it, thank you.

Yes, that Atmos set was my first Secret Base pickup too...good stuff!

Hey Guys,
Its a custom dark maroon suit with original paint..
Cheers,
mezza

Interesting. Can you tell us more? Did someone (you?) take the original maroon suit and dye it a darker shade of maroon? And then have it repainted with the original paint colors?
Good to see you back around here - you've got a great cyborg collection!
