If it is the neat one emerging from the little house, that seems to be his newest figure, currently in development stages...

No paints yet, but the vinyl prototypes for the new Sin & Wombat figure are now featured on the company site.

Got some feelers out, checking into timelines for scheduled release in the future...

Vinylpulse.com has a write up on this little guy. Appears it's a S+WxGargamel figure.

It's no Chicken Fever, I guess, but I still like the design---kind of kooky and blob-like. In some of the detailed pics I finally saw, it looks like it might be sh*tting out a little skull from its hind end; funny!

I also like the fact that it seems a little more crude and diorama-like. Sort of reminds me of the little Japanese yokai type plastic models and such that I got in Japan during the 80's. They tend to come with little props, or furniture, houses, etc. Less about just a lone figure, and more about a little scene or vignette going on...

I definitely prefer it to the Bigoted Miser figure that predates this S&W project.

The initial paint scheme is up, Count. Check the S&W website, or coverage on Vinylpulse.com to see it...

Cool thanks!

I think he looks pretty cool, I definitely like the little Tobacco shop scene.

Is that right that they are being released on November 11th? Has anyone emailed Gargamel or anything already?

i think that shit is wrong. I can't stand that vinyl pulse site.

If anyone is successful in purchasing direct from gargamel, please let us know.

Whereas the first time I got a batch of S&W stuff it was directly from Ryu. After that he referred me to Shono-Kikaku Co. for future inquiries. I get the impression that maybe he doesn't particularly care for the hassle of dealing with overseas inquiries himself. When I say get your order in, I mean get whomever you deal with in Japan to place the order through Thrash Out, because they are currently taking mail orders...

I also read something recently which confirms what I suspected; Ryu gets the figures manufactured and sent to him as blanks, then he paints and packages them by hand. For this he apologizes because of slight variations from product to product based on the handcrafted nature of the detailing.

Definitely the vinylpulse information seemed a little suspect to me. It would be nice if you could just swing an order on the Gargamel website for shipment to the US, but I get the impression that such a day has not arrived yet.

The recent Kaiju on Vinylpulse has seemed a little weird. Sort of makes it sound all so easy to get.
If Thrashout were taking orders from O.S me would be much happy!!
And very very broke. Much broker than now even....

The S&W website now indicates that the "Gomilla/Gomira" figure starts to sell at Gargamel Thrash Out on Nov. 13th. Evidently the sale period is one month, during which time they will accept mail orders as well.

Long live Garbage Monster!!!

Hello everyone. After reading vinyl pulse I emailed Gargamel and put in a order for some of there stuff. But after reading what you guys said its highly unlikely this will happen. If it goes thru I will definitely let you guys know. By the way your collections are sweeet.
