{ DevilRobots Hellcatz -Vanimal Zoo Sony Capsule Collection }

Hotter than Hell? Japanese design collective DevilRobots are responsible for this outstanding entry in the Sony Vanimal Zoo gashapon (capsule toy) collection. Not only are they super cool and super cute, they are all super evil too, as evidenced by their tiny little pitchforks and saucy demeanors. Each Hellcat comes packaged with a corresponding mouse-buddy, in the two-for-one deal of the century. They are blind-packaged, so you never know which one you're going to get- keep your eyes peeled for the Angel variant, the "secret" figure in the series. These little guys are surprisingly sturdy, and stand well on their own despite their enormous heads. The paint applications are a step up from other pieces in the Vanimal Zoo collection, giving them very separate looks and personalities despite the fact that they are all cast from the same mold. I'm getting mine from Kid Robot, though all the hot import toy shops are carrying them. Here's a price breakdown, by online store- kidrobot.com $7.95 ningyoushi.com $8 magicpony.com $14 (Canadian)

Hi!

Last spring I was in Japan and picked up some of the Hellcatz toys. I currently have the angel, the devil and the robot cat. I am looking for the Skeleton and the Pink cat. Does anyone know where I can find them? ( I really should have opened the boxes before I got home.. I actually had a duplicate of the robot kitty.)
