Got a couple packages in over the last 3 days from AliExpress.

These next 3 are actually figure model kits, so they need to be cut off the sprue & assembled.

This is likely an early copy of the Fury Toys monkey minion. I ordered sets of the other monkeys that are being packed now.

There’s a third party VHD coming, they showed him at Wonderfest or whatever show all the third party guys in Hong Kong show at!

Also, I feel Ryoko is my great white whale for having a figure from every anime that truly meant something to me growing up. It’s weird it’s probably one of the few animes Americans know because it aired HEAVILY censored on Toonami, and shit, Big Todd even included Ryoko (and a much lesser degree a very shitty Tenchi) in his “Anime in 3D” line which had them standing beside Akira, Trigun, and Ghost in the Shell… but today like nothing exists merchandise wise

I wonder if it’s a thing where Pioneer just doesn’t have a licensing department so you call them up wanting to make figures and they’re all like “anime? Nah, mate, we make cameras! (Hangs up)”, it must of had some cultural relevance in Japan they did SO MANU REBOOTS, I think it lasted into mid-aughts at least…

I almost bought the “this is just Ryoko but we’re Disney try and sue us” Pop from Owl House just to have some vague representation on the shelf (side rant: what’s with modern cartoons thinking they can just steal anime characters and call them their own?! Witch from Owl House is Ryoko, Panthro in the TCats reboot is Jet Black from Cowboy Bebop, Parasite in my Adventures with Superman is a Berserker EVA Unit 01… like seeing something on TV doesn’t mean you can just have it!)
 
No reason, I just heart this figure.

the first runs sold out so if you got them off Amazon or eBay they’re probably bootlegs, I got the lady off Amazon knowing it was a bootleg (Romankey has warned not to buy off resellers because they’re almost certainly fake)to see what all the hype was about and she’s a floppy mess, arms more likely to fall off than hold a basic pose. But I got the recently reissued male off 5k and he’s got nice tight joints that old poses really well, the recently released Super Muscle male is similar in quality, soI’d assume the upcoming official re-release of lady body on pre-order at 5k will be a lot less floppy.

Replying to myself from the past because 5k just sent me a 2nd payment notice for the reissue of RomankeyXCowl woman… will be as floptastic as the bootleg?!?! Did I waste my money buying an official one hoping it would be good?!?! Time to pay up then play the waiting game and find out!

I hope they have extras, I'd love another blank.
 
So I just got my Smart Series Tyrannosaurs from Nanmu and oh my god I love these! They are the perfect size when it comes to posing, the detail is off the charts for only being a 1/35th scale set of Tyrannosaurs. The articulation is very fluid right out of the box. I only had one stiff knee joint on both figures that required a little bit of heat, luckily it unfroze pretty much instantly. Yeah these are great. As happy as I was to go all in on BoTM last year, these Rexes have a certain bit of charm to them and I don’t think it’s necessarily because they are based on the buck and the doe from The Lost World: Jurassic Park. We were all talking about the old Resaurus figures from the late 90’s and honestly-if you are a fan of the old Carnage/Dinosaur King toyline…these really hit.

Not to mention there are actually distinctions between the male and female tyrannosaur beyond the color differences. The male has a larger head and more pronounced throat. The snout is more stubby and it gives the male tyrannosaur almost a pit bull like quality. There are also mating scars on the right orbital finestra and the jugal hornlet.

Now if the male is the pit bull of the pack, the matriarch is the Great Dane. She’s slightly larger than her mate in the torso and her head is very long with more numerous teeth and a much angrier look in her eyes. Her muted browns are perfectly painted. There is no area of overspray or any sections that look like too much paint was applied in certain spots.

One curious detail is that she also has faintly visible spots on her body but it’s strange because that was more common on Rexy’s design. The Doe on the other hand has more pronounced stripes. It could be that this is Rexy after all and I just didn’t clock this correctly but it’s weird to go through the trouble of making a male T-Rex (Practically from scratch , I might add) if he’s not the companion piece. Also Nanmu makes the doe all the time so I feel like that would be the next logical step if they’ve only made the doe as a static desktop figurine prior to this.



Anyway I love this figure and I highly recommend checking them out and grabbing a set while they’re still around on store shelves.

How's this scale against old Kenner JP toys? It looks good, but I don't know if I'd bother if it's vastly undersized, especially if I'm already considering their next raptor releases.
 
These are tiny. It’s about the same size as the Young T-Rex from the original Kenner line. And obviously way more detailed. These are constructed out of hard pvc, not the soft, squishy “real” dinosaur skin. And it goes without saying…no Dino damage or JP stamps.


Also not everything has to be in scale with other properties. Sometimes it’s just nice to have a cool desktop toy that you can mess around with. And all the better when it’s a cool dinosaur toy


Also I forgot to mention this in my earlier breakdown but these two Rex figures have been getting a lot of coverage on twitter this past week. I’m constantly seeing pics, reels and reviews on my For You page and they all made me ever more excited for the arrival of my figs. You have no idea how glad I am to have these. They hit me right in the feels. I had the Carnage Dino’s growing up in high school and college and I was also collecting the Papo stuff for a time so to see these gorgeous tyrannosaurs in 1/35th scale and masterfully sculpted, painted and articulated makes these a work of art that I’ll treasure for decades.
