I think it's the best painted Greasebat they've released. I love the way the paint accentuates the beautiful sculpt/GID vinyl. Definitely a must get!!!

Wow! Was I lucky? Just came home from the cinema, turned on my computer, checked my emails. There was one from MW saying they sold this Greasebat today. I bought it 10 minutes ago, and now it's sold out!
So damn lucky! :) -

yes, you remember well :-( it was a mistake- I am sure I've read that wrong date somewhere (a blog probably). really sorry about that
edit: yes, 28 June on spankystokes.com (generally a very reliable source of info, probably just a typo) -

Geez, $250. The two Greasebats, shirt, and extras add up to maybe $190. So you're paying $60 for the right to buy future Greasebats. I guess that's worth it.

Man, I'd love an unpainted GID Greasebat, but couldn't muster the $$$ for a membership. Can't wait to see all the unpainted RFGBs the Greasers get an opportunity to buy.

Finally managed to upload this. I'm not sure about the quantity, do all 5 "Nothing to be done" Godots have black feet?
Also: his hat fell on the ground and broke. I need to get rid of my clumsy self :< -

Ooo this is still way to sick . Number 2 on the coolest MB list. Would love to play around with this double poured GID MB in the dark.
They'd sure make a lot of money if they ever decide to make this a common release. -

@jesterpuppet- that was a reference to a previous "discussion" on this site as to what was or wasn't a suitable toy to post here.
There was a designer clock that was being argued about.....you had to be there really :) -

I never would have seen that clock if it wasn't for rotocasted. This thing.... not excited about.

I think this toy is entirely acceptable. It is a "Toy Library" after all.
Eventually it will be broken down in to sub sections (as fas as I know) to keep everyone happy. -

I think the differentiation between vinyl and Japanese vinyl is just fine. It's easier for people who want to search for a specific type of figure and in my opinion it can be considered a different material: it's not just usually lighter, glossier and has more details, but the manufacturing process and even the ingredients vary slightly (Jap vinyl is unhealthier, yay).
The only thing one could merge would be Japanese vinyl, soft vinyl and sofubi, which is basically the same (but would be kind of a lot of work and I don't know if it would make sense to do so). -
-

I'm happy with the above classification if everyone agrees. Could take a lot of tag updating though :)

Yes, I agree with LB. There certainly is a difference. Take one of your Dunnys in one hand and one of your Pocket Mummy Boys in the other. No comparison. Japan stuff has the feeling. Dunnys seem "dead".
Why else would an esteemed company like S7 choose to have their toys entirely produced in Japan?
Obviously there is a difference. But LB is right, Japanese vinyl, soft vinyl and sofubi is more or less the same.
Actually you'll find Japanese and Sofubi under "Type" tag as well.
I suggest we keep one entry for Type: Sofubi.
And one entry for material: Soft Vinyl.
That way we have both
Just one thing; we mods have to keep our eyes peeled when new uploads are coming in. But it isn't that a big thing.
(OK, I see Dan was faster, than I was :) ) -

I don't think sofubi is a type. Sofubi just means "soft vinyl." I think a Mummy Boy is just a designer toy. I think the material should be sofubi and the type should be whatever is appropriate, usually designer toy or kaiju.

I think Shank actually nailed it pretty precise here...
Certainly there's a difference between designer toys and kaijus.
Everybody happy? -

If you google the name of the toy and a bunch of stills from old Japanese movies show up, it's a kaiju.

Err.. but aren't they called "sofvi" now...? Maybe we should reconsider the whole thing?? ;O/
-
-
11 years ago
I think the type should be removed all together or just a ‘family’ term: vinyl/plush/resin/3D printed
As so many designers/stores/collectors are referring to Japanese made vinyl as Sofubi now, I think the material for all should be changed to sofubi.... then again, it might all be called 'Super Flexible Magical Plastic' next year so you'll have to change it all over again.
Sofvi/sofubi/japanese vinyl = all the same thing. You can get soft vinyl out of China though.

I love love love this one!!! You can find him easy because you can here the gum balls when you shake the box. Though people at a shop might look at you funny when you do. lol By the way it's even cuter in person. Awwww.

Just got it but I'm surprised the body is not vinyl. Why do you think they did that? Also, can't decided whether to stick the 25¢ sticker on.

I was surprised that that was a sticker and not printed on, but I really like the look of it, so I put it on immediately after I opened mine.

Jen - the Dunny head at least is not vinyl because it's almost impossible to mass-produce vinyl to be that clear and even.
I have no idea why the body and hands are ABS too
