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...

@ yardarm51: thank you so much for bringing this up!!!! you are awesome!

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? -

Sil, It's extremely limited. Only 30 pieces! And PP & Dan already have theirs. Hurry! You know, rare vinyl pieces are like an investment. The market price just keep escalating! In a few years you can sell it for the double price on eBay. ;)

Congrats, Sil. You sure know what is best for you! ;) And I actually feel like a toy at the moment! (LOL hysterically). I'll probably regret in a few days that I didn't get one, but the purple one is still my favourite, apart from the GID I already have. Secret Base kicks asses!

Slightly surprised uh huh. Maybe it's because of the financial crises? And this ain't a Ferg x Peters or Kaws for that matter. Who cares? I'm glad you guys convinced me to get one. Eagerly awaiting to hold it.
Oh, and Sil, when it comes to hiding toys from your man, I can tell you that it gets easier the more toys you get. Of course minis easily blend in with the others. And with the big ones I usually just lie about the retail price. *blush* -
-
13 years ago
Don't get me wrong, I picked it up because I love it, not on the hope it would double in value.
I'm just surprised that a secret base piece limited to 30 units, didn't sell out in 5 minutes.
Guess people don't have the toy budget they used to. I know I'm cutting down, or at least trying to.
Jesus, that makes it sound like a drug habit lol! -
13 years ago
hahaha jazzydan :D oh man, i needed a laugh today! toys are like drugs my dear..they get you addicted very easily and i am sure, everyone on here feels the same as you do.
@ jan, i don't have soooo many toys yet to hide it well and i am very very bad at lying.
and regarded to the surprise, that it is not sold out yet, i wonder, if they even made that release so public and spread the word about it. -

Polite correspondence:
"Hi Jan,
Thank you for your email,
We are very surprised with your answer.
The fact is that we received all the Skulls with protection, and we didn’t open the whole 30 pieces, as we opened a couple of them and everything was perfect.
I’d suggest to send us pics of the details, and we’ll see with Secret Base if we can do something about that.
Sorry about this issue."
Now, I only hope Sil and PP will get flawless ones!!! -

oh no TOY, wtf am i reading there?! your skull seems to be a big fail production :( this breaks my little heart!
i am very glad to read though, that artoyz is willing to do something about it and contacts secret base. i hope, you get either your flaws fixed or somehow, they pull out a skullhead number 31 and melt your away...
i don't have mine, yet. the toys from the netherlands took 3 weeks to get here and this one comes from france. but i am very anxious right now, that mine is not perfect as well ... hmmm :-/ -

sooooooo...i just picked up my skull head...it has a minor dent on the left side of the forhead, which seems to be something, every single skull head has. and on the back and right side are some bubbles in the vinyl (not on the surface), which might be normal as well.
i am in love with this piece! now i just have to hide it somewhere till my birthday...
i want more skull heads!!!!!!!!!
and you toy, keep us up to date about your sad crying thing. -

i am happy. i just did not expect the dent on the left part of the forehead. i checked pics though and saw, they all have this little dent and a mini dent next to the dent..so enough with the dents.
and i just wrote all this down (bubbles included) to make sure and check on you guys, if i am not wrong with my observation, because you have so many flaws on your skull.
i would love to collect many more of them though, that is for sure! alone the size is impressive, TOY :) -

I'm so, so sorry I got this wrong! Jean-Marie Sauve is the artist and Kaiju Bento is the manufacturer. The sculptor wasn't listed either from the looks of it. I'm hoping a site administrator or moderator can fix my mistake, sorry I'm just really overtired...
