Gonna be tough getting one of these. They were produced in really limited numbers (20-50 I think) and only available at Design Fest 2008 in Tokyo. The paint is done by Itokin Park's friend Shef who does the most amazing job. They are painted on the interior of the toy rather than the exterior.

There have been a couple of other rainbow colour Luchas but they were done by kaiju artist Cronic and frankly I think they were an even smaller number and the colours weren't as well blended. Shef's rainbow graduation is something to behold!
Here's an example of the Cronic rainbow...

oh wait, what?! what am i missing?! there is one up for sale?! in japanese?! damn..my brother sleeps right now already over there in germany.
let me check this out!
@ yardarm51: thank you so much for bringing this up!!!! you are awesome!
...update...i was smart enough to put it in my cart, but when i want to go to the check out procedure, something written in RED pops up in japanese, which seems like a failure notice and i can't keep going :( -

i just mailed them and then saw, that it can take up to 2 freaking weeks, till they answer me... wtf?! in 2 weeks that little guy is snatched away by somebody, who understands japanese and could figure this site out :(

No, Sil, don't give up! I'm sure he's mented for you. BUT, I have to quote Yardarm; "Gonna be tough getting one of these."
Just relax! In 6 hours your brother wakes up in Germany, and everything will be fine...trust me! ♥ -
-

oh toy, thanks for giving me hope!
and yes, it is tough to get one of these, but i am trying already very very hard!!! for now, i did all i could do. my brother is hard to get hold of, i will try it tomorrow though :) -

13 years ago
oh toy, you are the sweetest!!!
i just tried the check out again with the help of my online translator, but they don't let me through the system, because my zip code is not in japan, they don't recognize it and my us phone number not either...i am f***ed with ordering online.
now i have a little hope, that the workers of the online store answer my mail soon and help me out.
Toy, it late over there, where you are. get some sleep!!!!! :-* -
13 years ago
so, i talked to my brother. he could not help me much either and translated me the things, i already figured out on my own.
1 is in stock, there is no sign of shipping to the usa and the check out is only for people located in japan.
YARNDARM , if you read this, could you help me with finding the english version of that webpage, so i can check, if that one ships international? -

You're not alone, MC. This IS better than a soap. That night Sil was trying to get the Lucha Bear into her basket, I was biting my nails...and admitting...laughing at the same time. (Sitcom?)

I want this toy because it's iconic, striking, and cool! :)
-
-
13 years ago
First off, this is awesome you are doing this!
With so many awesome toys in the world, it’s hard to see them all. Thanks to the wonder that is Rotocasted, I get to see toys that I wouldn't normally.
Why would I want this? Well, this is the first time I am seeing this toy. I may be well out of the loop but I don’t know the artist, designer or the manufacture. Yet, I have fallen in love with this toy as is, not caring who the designer is, if they have a name for themselves or how it will reflect who I am as a consumer. I just want to play with it and have it in my collection.
Saying that, I am now interested in finding more about the artists and manufacture. This is a tight piece and I want to see more from whoever was involved, time to google! -

Picked one of these up recently from Minty ^^ Excellent service on their part and whilst I really love the form (Arkiv produced a cool character here for sure), the quality of the thing is poor i.e. AdFunture, more effort required!
For 40 euro's its just about passable, but at the original price (double what I paid), I'd be very annoyed if this was what I received! It's not QC issues I am talking about either, its just outright quality on the whole, The vinyl is thin and passes light, the colour application, mainly coloured vinyl with a bit of white paint, lazy production IMO, in hand it reminds me of a dog chew toy. -

angel

I agree Moose. I have three of these, including a D-Lux custom, and they all look fantastic. But you can tell immediately that the material is low quality. I'd like to hear from one of the Arkiv Sumo owners, to see if that figure is the same or if they used better vinyl.

353 606 632

Yeah we were very displeased aswell with these and currently I have a shitload at an artist for customisation... biggest mistake i made in my Mintyfresh years :(

angel

432 4 822

Don't get me wrong, I'm still a fan of this figure, and at Minty's price it's well worth it. If this had been made from Japanese vinyl it would have retailed for $150 or more. The iffy vinyl kept it affordable.
Minty, who is the artist? -
-

angel

353 606 632

Arkiv Vilmansa is the artist, and yes agree on the form and figure self is still awesome. Quality was just an issue and lesson was learned ;)
