Ultra Q Decayed Garamon Art Master 3D (¥59,800 JPY)

Sculptor Ryu Oyama brings us the most detailed, delightfully grotesque version of Garamon yet. Garamon was crafted as a 14cm-tall clay model which was CT scanned to capture every layer and detail necessary to enlarge the final statue to a 20cm height. Made from blown poly-resin similar to plastic, this kaiju is made to be particular resistant to breakage and damage to protect each carefully-crafted thorn and edge.

• 20cm tall
• Blow-molded poly-resin
• Sculpted by Ryu Oyama
