Erick Scarecrow sent us photos of the first figure from ESC-Toy's Old Skool Kaiju series. The first design is called Dizign. This one is the "Ultra Dizign" colorway, and is limited to 350 pieces worldwide. It will retail for $69.99 and it will come with a print at Esc-Toy's NY Comic Con booth #861.
I don't see the kaiju in this…

the words "old school" and "kaiju" being used in tandem is pretty ridiculous. there is nothing old school OR kaiju about this piece of western crap.

People definitely don't know what kaiju is. Go back to "skool".

I hate Scarecrow.

I saw the word 'kaiju' in the headline and got my hopes up for something cool. There isn't even a token nod to kaiju, old or new, in any part of the design of this toy. To use the word 'kaiju' in the marketing of this is dishonest and insulting.

Maybe if it was called something else, I could ignore it, but the fact that you put Kaiju in the name of this toy, makes me feel the urge to inform you that you have no idea what Kaiju is.
Plus, what year is it? Anyone have some E? What a shitty toy.

I can't believe this. Fuck him. He can't do this. Who the hell does he think he is? I'll still buy one but you know but does he doesn't know a thing about real Kaiju. I bet the Japanese won't approve of this.

It definitely turned into a bitchfest on the KR boards but I have to wonder. If his whole intent was to muster this much attention on a new release. He did it. I would bet money that everyone will head to his booth at NYCC. Quite clever chap.

It's one thing to want to create attention, but in this case, it's been all negative.
It was pretty transparent who all the positive posts were coming from. Sorta like reading the reviews of "Battlefield Earth" on Amazon.com… let's play "Spot the Scientologist"
