Cool enemies for Glyos...

I think these would be fun to pair up with Glyos figures!

I love that word. Sofubi.

Where was that word all these years and why have gaijin only just started using it recently?

Also, keep the cheapo Bandai's coming. These things age so gracefully, and it's only a matter of time before the current production process is deemed "qauint"

invisible monster ?!

Based on my limited Kanji knowledge this monster is called an invisble/transparent monster. I guess the toy won't do that :)

The reason Neronga looks

The reason Neronga looks like "a poor man's Baragon" is because Tsuburaya used the Baragon costume to create him. The Baragon suit was also used to make Pagos and Magra.

By the time Toho got the Baragon costume back it was beat to hell, which is why he doesn't do much more than lurk in the background in Destroy All Monsters.

This is the second sculpt that Bandai did of Neronga. The first one (back in the 80s) wasn't all that hot, but this one is super realistic.

This may be the second or third time this sculpt has been repainted. There was also an exclusive Hyper Hobby clear version (the monster can make himself invisible).
