Buff Monster is really rocking it!
After seeing this, and a lot of his other new pieces, I really wanna start collecting his work!
I must buy a padlock for my wallet!!

This figure is a MUST! (for me :)
And the price ($85) is actually very fair for a figure such size.

I love the little monster oozing out of the side of the figure. Can't really see it on this photo, but check out the side photo – http://bit.ly/bm9suh

Embrace the debts LOL! your not wrong!!
It is a fantastic price, especially when compared to Jleds over priced releases on the loyal subjects!
Bet shipping to the UK will spoil that though!!

This is hands down my favorite Buff Monster piece!
Is the quantity of 399 a play on the dark theme, or is it just coincidence?

TLS rocks! Love what they're doing.
They manage to get great artists, and produce very nice toys.
@antifaucetwater What about 399?

is anyone reminded of the O-No Sushi figure when they look at this? When I first saw a pic of it I thought it was a custom Sushi...
Vadim

Not really... There's some very basic resemblance, but only if you look at the front side of "The Destroyer". From the side and back it doesn't resemble O-No Sushi at all.

@vadimt I thought 399 was considered an 'evil' number?
Vadim

@antifaucetwater 666 is considered "the number of the beast".
Never heard that 399 is also "evil" :)

In the Bag!! Awesome!!
Just FYI, UK shipping from Loyal Subjects is pricey, shipping was half the price of the toy again. However, it gets really affordable if you buy multiple toys, comes down further and further the more you order.
So it may be worth clubbing in with friends and doing a big order to the UK.
Just a thought.

I normally wait till I actually have the toy in my cabinet.
Anyone know when these do actually ship?

I have ordered 2, I'm gonna put one either side of my desk at work, and anyone who wants to speak to me will have to address the destroyers first!!

mmmmmmm colourways, I'll have a rainbow of desk destroyers, hopefully with all different cheeky slogans on there backs, "ride the serpant"

@fliphappy LOL sorry I missed your rant while I was sleeping :P if colorways work for a design why not? they made a mold and try many ways to get the most out of the investment. A set of colorways that I hate is the lazy iterations of the unpainted Bossy Bear family. S7 can bring out all the different colorways but does it annoy you because you want to get them all? Simplest way to vote is not buying :)
Finally with mucho love for the Destroyer voiced here, I personally prefer the boobie shaped figures instead of this. I would have loved it more if it hasn't got arms and legs. Feels like they were added on so that he can stand up?

@doc18 You do have a boobe shaped figure with the Destroyer – it's oozing from its side :)
And about the legs – Buff has already done Kaiju figure without legs – http://rotocasted.com/toy/7028/

@jazzydan I always associate Buffmonster with boobies especially love his bodypainting ;)
@vadimt I have the original clear version of the Demon Seed (http://rotocasted.com/toy/3961/) and I prefer his figures legless. Simply a person taste, I can't even make sense of it myself :P

Got mine today. Supposedly has 4 points of articulation but I can't move his arms/legs and don't want to break it....I've broken off toy limbs before by mistake.

@fliphappy Yes mine has a thick seam running horizontal across the stomach. And the limbs are stiff, I can only move the bottom right leg slightly.

Cool, in that case I will be waiting for another colour variant. I am sure I missed out for this one (not a fan of the colour anyway) and can't be bothered trying to get the Dcon version :P
I gather they will do more.

There in my loft, the loft is full, so I guess no more toys :(

Agreed. I still live at home, I've started piling the larger boxes on top of my wardrobe. I've got a case full of flattened boxes.

I keep the vast majority of my boxes, I'm not sure why though. That might have to change.

I do... I don't know how many flattened Jumping Brain and Qee boxes I have stored away.

I'll eventually have to reconsider keeping the boxes if I don't stop buying toys or if I don't move to a bigger place. I keep all boxes, and I have well over 600 toys, including several big items such as 1000% Bearbricks...
