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. -

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.

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
12 years ago
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 ;)

They occasionally pop up on Yahoo Japan auctions but they do tend to be kinda expensive as not a lot of them were made. The other place, if you happen to be in Tokyo, is Mandarake. They have a few in stock in their various locations. I know they have one hand painted one in their Shibuya store at the moment.

Any full size Rangeas, really. when I see any pop up on ebay they go for more then 200$....they were always hard to find but with the mid-size ones around it's even harder. -

I *might* need this. Let me ponder. I've imposed a no more mini-figure rule here, but what are the chances I'll really be able to find a large Dr. Maybee? I commend you on your obsessive search :)

Wow! That's how gold looks on it now?
-
- angel
-
566 356 245
14 years ago
Yeah, I don't think these ever had an official release b/c of the way the gold turned to patina. Ironically, I don't often go for a straight-up gold colorway, but I LOVE the green-gold look of this figure.
-
14 years ago
Yes, this golden-green Booted Glamour Cat is rad!
I still need this one and the Ultra Violet to complete my cats...
I wish Scott Musgrove would do more toys. He has so many characters with a huge potential to become amazing toys! -

I completely agree with you!
-
14 years ago
There was an offer a while back to send in your gold Glamour Cat and have it repainted in gold paint that wouldn’t go green. I took advantage of it and have a nice gold one now. The green/gold is nice too, except when it oozes or bleeds on you. :)
-
14 years ago
They repainted the whole figure, or masked the eye, nose and mouth?
-
14 years ago
I am a sucker for rare, unreleased stuff so when I was graciously given this, I loved the fact that it was a factory reject... LOVE IT, and all the green ooze that it comes with :-)
-
13 years ago
wow, I don't have any funds now, but probably some other Musgrove fans* will be happy with my find -->
*go get it, Vadim, please be a completist for my sake :-) -

@amavevera
You're amazing!!! Thanks a lot! :)
I've been searching for ages for this colorway. -
13 years ago
Got my golden cat today, and I love it! Seems like it's a repainted version, because I don't have any gold-green oxidation.
Now my Booted Glamour Cats collection is complete. I got them all! :)

-

wasn't this around $1000 or $2000 retail?
-
12 years ago
Around USD 1,000. It's now a hefty price for a toy, but considering one of his paintings sold for USD 750,000... I still regret not getting the Jeff Koons puppy vase for USD 300 when it was released, and now it's about USD 12,000, or more.
