Since we were talking previously about the really great Tsuchinoko sets, I wanted to also post this set from the same series, which is new to me. It is another simply perfect duo of mythical monsters, this time a big and little 'Nessie' pair. I really just love the classic dinosaur stylings of them, the colours they used, and the quirky-ness of the two different sizes for mother and baby. Another Bearmodel homerun I think, and an instant want for me. Now to track them down (if I can). ベアモデル マボロシソフビ 【ネッシー親子】I don't really know how many other cryptids might be part of this series, but seeing this new set I had not come across before makes me very hopeful for the possibilities. And Bearmodel never disappoints. If someone here was quick enough to snag these, I offer my congratulations to you. It is an extra treasure hunt I probably didn't need, but welcome. These must be pretty rare . . . i've seen the snakes for sale a few times but never those. Looking at the header it would suggest a few more in the series, maybe? There is very little info about these online. Interesting stuff. Thanks for sharing!

Re: BEAR MODEL
Ahaha, what a dummy I am. I completely forgot that you shared that with me once already Mark. But then, I am a̶ ̶b̶i̶t̶ ̶o̶f̶ a ginormous space cadet (just call me Cap), and I guess all that book learnin' and real life stuff is pushing out a lot of the good info. Anyways, thanks for the reminder Mark! Great that you snagged a set of these too. Ought to be even more embarrassing seeing as how I went through the trouble of linking right back to that page!

Re: BEAR MODEL
I've been looking for the blue Daimon for what seems like a loooong time. Finally found him . . . big respect to Cindy for the heads-up! Yokai-tastic

Re: BEAR MODEL
^ Greenie, for what it's worth, comes in an extremely lovely box with an insert and stand. Plenty lovely in hand, too.
That said... yes, Bluie rules. Congrats, Joe!

Re: BEAR MODEL
The sculpt is just amazing to me - so much well-balanced detail packed into such a little guy. Pretty perfect.
Did you change your name, Brent? You have me wondering if I've been hallucinating capital letters all this time.

Re: BEAR MODEL
^^ Thanks guys, i do like the red and silver sprays and the extra eye-detail on the blue. I think the sculpting shows better on the green version, so they both have their merits . . . .
