The auction page says it is a Marusan reissue. Here's another shot that better shows off the facial features. He looks familiar but I too am not coming up with the name.

How about a pic of its feet? We could translate its name if the photo is clear enough.

By the way, you have some GORGEOUS kaiju pics on your links pages!! :eek:

Thanks KaijuZoo!

Well, it's been impossible to find this guy's name/show. :cry:

I will scan the header and post, I think it has his name on it.

I really like your customs! :eek:
I added you as a contact.

I love that the hero on the header is taking out a rooster :lol:

KaijuZoo Thanks so much!

I will add a note of thanks to you when I complete the photography of Zagarausu!

The only thing that concerns me...is how close the name is to Zagoran...

So I guess we have a Zagarus and a Zagoran out there. 8-) 8-)

There is nothing out there on the internets about this guy it seems.
I still hope to find out what series he was on.

A lost Kaiju?

Thanks again John.

Thank you very much Brian!

I use a photography method called HDR (High Dynamic Range).
I then edit the picture using Tone Mapping.
Lastly, I put on finishing touches in Photoshop and some other photo apps.

Here is an article that is fairly good at HDR explanation and some basic how-to...

Thank you August!

I knew I hadn't seen this character. I've seen most of the of kaiju shows and thought I was going crazy.

I like to have a name and story behind all of my figures in my collection and photography...
now I do! Thanks again guys!


:D :D :D
