Yeah. He was a web exclusive.

And he is rather awesome to boot!

My Gatakiriba arrived today. Since I hadn't seen any elsewhere yet, here are pics of the box and inner bubble. I'll take more pics of the actual figure a little later when I have a chance to take him out.

(Random bit of oddness, but this was one of the only Asian-based overseas packages I didn't have to sign for. I opened the door and there it was.)

Oooh! I can't wait to get mine! Shame it doesn't have a window like TaToBa and TaJaDor

Yeah after seeing pics of Tatoba's and Tajador's packaging I was hoping for a window too. The metallic green really shines in-hand and I figured the packaging would want to show that off.

SIC GataKiriBa looks boss, but what's with the odd green bits near the clear green OOO Lung parts?

Imagine an SIC Lord Zedd...

Here are more pics of Gatakiriba himself. I'm really impressed by this thing, it's very impressive and gorgeous to look at. There's clear green plastic on the shoulder pieces, the legs and back. The way the head is molded, he can't really look up, but that aside posability is pretty damn good.

The standard limbs and insect limbs are pretty easy to remove and peg in. The edge of the blade on the arms is actually clear green plastic, which was cool to see (I guess I hadn't looked at the official pics from last year closely enough, I hadn't noticed it previously.

Not sure how clear it is to see here, but another thing I hadn't noticed previously is the clear chest pieces are actually three different types of clear green plastic (emerald, lime and a foresty green).

For those that are getting him, just an FYI to be sure to tuck in the top of the clear green piece that is a part of each leg into the hip piece so it doesn't get in the way of moving the leg up and down. It's not fragile (the clear green piece is a softer plastic, so you don't have to worry about snapping it off or something) but just something to remember if you haven't owned one of these OOO molds like I haven't (I don't know if it's the same thing with Tatoba or Tajadol).

The little compartment on the hip is the only piece that is really loose. It can fly open if I'm handling Gatakiriba after opening it only a couple of times so I won't bother storing the silver coins he comes with in there since I'd rather not lose them as tiny vacuum bait.

From the looks of it, the insect legs aren't any different from the ones that came with TaToBa. I do like that the normal legs are metallic to match the overall color scheme making them different from TaToBa's legs. I don't know a lot of people here that have TaToBa and also plan to get GataKiriBa other than Den-O, so I guess I'll just have to compare them more closely when I get mine.

Gatakiriba looks aweosme. And I finally got to take pics of my CycloneJoker.

Too bad Photobucket is being so... well, Photobucket otherwise I'd show off the other pics I took. But Toku's attachment system seems to only be able to handle so much.

EDIT: Now she's working.
