Gabara. ToyFreakz exclusive Matt Frank comic color version. Cost $59.99 + S&H. Limited edition of 50. Newly sculpted Gabara. November release.

Y-MSF on November 1st pulled out some proto on green vinyl for painting. My guess is the ToyFreakz exclusives will be on green vinyl and not on black vinyl as the pictures being shown from them were from older photos from Y-MSF (But I could be wrong).

Comparison of the old sculpt with newer sculpt. Black vinyl is the newer sculpt.
