Oh ok I get it now. They're in the process of being painted and then shipped. I completely spaced and realized unless your Medicom things don't arrived painted and ready to ship.

I think Lulu ordered through Medicom. That was my guess at least.

I received my shipping notice. But I did do the order through TU.

So, I think I like the addition of the blue paint on that other test (?) shot. Wonder if this will be the next release. I don't know if I could see myself owning a whole pile of these, and definitely not ones that close together, but I think it is a cool take on it - the little bit of extra colour brings a lot more to balance the figure.

^ I'm pretty sure that he just meant the next release of FakeBaron.

From the recent Medicom preview:

Blue belt and... bib? :)

I'm digging the packaging for this first fellow very much:

Congrats to those that bit.

Looks like more Fake Spectreman are on preparation. I'm super excited by all of those. It's nice to see the original pachi PVC toys made with soft-vinyl.

The Bakura larva sold me on the 1st version.
I'm wondering where the blue version is from though. It reminds me of the blue spectreman form the Brazilian comics but the head is really different. I like this blue one a lot. He looks really mean.

Funny thing they are licensed by P-Pro.

I wish that the blue one's head came on the red one's body. I love the color scheme and belt on the red one, but the head on the blue is so much better to me.

SPECTREMAN Bootlegs - SPECTREMAN was a worldwide massive hit in 70s. No wonder Imitator and bootlegged merchandise was flooded the Market. - This toys or art, often called knockoffs or bootlegs, are most ridiculous, absurd, ugly and hilarious to most people. But some of this weird toys/art are very creative and deserve some attention. - Here is a bootleg SPECTREMAN blow molded plastic toy from 70s. And our FAKE SPECTREMAN #1 was inspired by this design. - Before we develop FAKE SPECTREMAN as a collection. Our original idea was to remake this weird bootleg PVC Toy into Soft Vinyl Toy. - We are huge fan of SPECTREMAN and during our research we found the SPECTREMAN knockoffs merchandises is the most rich and diverse compare to other Tokusatsu heros. We think it will be great to see some more of them in Sofubi. And now we introduce this licensed FAKE SPECTREMAN series. - Our idea is this knockoffs "FAKE SPECTREMAN" was born from Nebula 71. The same home planet of SPECTREMAN. And they are "Brothers" or a "Sentai(squadron)"...... Use your imagination, playing, display our FAKE SPECTREMAN with your own original SPECTREMAN Toys.

So the rest of us can judge where ours are at - How did you order this? Toy Underground? Medicom? Lulu? Some other way?
