Re: Hirota Saigansho: Gorilla-ju, Mecha Gorilla-ju, & Tyrann
Here you go... It's just the cover of the issue that Hirota had on his blog. I don't have a way to post the ad for you.

If you have permission it's not a bootleg, it's an official license FYI. Didn't know about the stretchy guys. Cool to find out GJ is from something older. I always like that kind of thing. I know it's been done to death & a lot of braniacs ( that's what I'm gonna call us from now on) are pretty over it but it's still fun to figure stuff out & then get into the original point of reference itself.

Advertising for toys even the die hard fans can't get. Ahahah. At least Hirota has fun with his creations.

Re: Hirota Saigansho: Gorilla-ju, Mecha Gorilla-ju, & Tyrann
Building even more hype I guess? Wonder if he is planning on transitioning to a more English-friendly website then, because if not, it seems the results of this advertisement will be lost on the general masses.

A lot of the Japanese toy makers grew up reading Famous Monsters and I believe this was a personal dream of his to be in there.

Re: Hirota Saigansho: Gorilla-ju, Mecha Gorilla-ju, & Tyrann
Yeah, and I agree it is totally cool, and kudos to him for fulfilling one of his dreams. I think almost everyone here has a huge appreciation for FMOF. Just a bit odd, kinda like saying your longtime dream has always been to be on tv, so if you have enough money you just buy yourself a commercial slot.

It would be great if this is hinting at more of a wide, huge factory runs. But that would be just a dream... Love the ad though!

Re: Hirota Saigansho: Gorilla-ju, Mecha Gorilla-ju, & Tyrann
Hell yeah!!! This. If he is gearing up for a full-production run, that would be utterly amazing. Flippers and after-market be damned! [I can just hear the inner groans of all those cherishing their hyped, limited edition figures]

Of course; wasn't directed at anyone particular. Just think it is about time that we recognise fandom/appreciation is not related to how deep your pockets are.
