Night Shadow Mad Mantis
Friday, February 15th, 2008
Secret Base took us all by surprise with this new release of the “Night Shadow” Mad Mantis. It has been well over a year since the last release of the Mad Mantis sculpt, so a lot of the die-hard Secret Base collectors (myself included) are very excited to finally add another wacky two-headed creature to their collections. From the looks of this figure the body is made of clear vinyl and painted from the inside out, a similar paint technique used on the 13th Skull Bees. And the best part is… it glows!! I’m hopeful that the success of this release will bring many more Mad Mantises to us in the near future.
On feb 4 at 6pm, Secret Base posted 22 older and rarer 12″ suits up for sale on their website. What’s even better were all the suits were on Henshin bodies, some of which were vintage!
