Preview Paul Kaiju's Get a Life Gobocon! Mini Figure Series

Preview Paul Kaiju's upcoming mini figure series called Get a Life Gobocon! Series 1 in wax From left to right the figures are Gobocon, Cat Girl, Chuto & Machinegun Ghost.

Gobocon is a zombie robot from the future who requires Goboroot for fuel.
Cat Girl is moderator of all times.
Chuto is a post "great war" friend and confidant of Gobocon, from further in the future than Gobocon!
Machinegun Ghost is a gangster monster from the earth past.

Paul's inspiration for this mini figure set was a rare Rockbat Mini Set from the collection of Warren Schwartz in the pic above.
Quote from PK- "I though it would be cool to combine 70's Tokusatsu shows such as ROBOCON and ROCKBAT with something part "Terminator" and part early "Outer Limits" combined with these cute Tokusatsu shows, including "off" elements from across time, and this is what came out of the sculpt session. 
A total love letter to Tokustatsu of Japan and the bottomless pit that got me here in the first place.
The island they inhabit, is surely nuts. I can't wait to come up with more."
Love it when artists shares their inspiration(s) for a project and can't wait for these to be released. These are scheduled to be released in 2014.
