Ok, let’s discuss the detailing on Tamatoa!

Postby **fforesta9** » Tue Jun 19, 2018 4:32 pm

He may just be a common but I saw it in person today for the first time and HAD to buy it. It’s incredible. All the colors and blending, and glitter, and sculpting. I am beyond wowed.

Anyone else?

Was he shiny, like a treasure from a sunken pirate wreck?

Postby **lunarembrace** » Tue Jun 19, 2018 4:38 pm

Does he sparkle like a wealthy woman's neck?

Postby **Chase Variant** » Tue Jun 19, 2018 4:40 pm

Did he dazzle like a diamond in the rough?

Postby **kdmlvr** » Tue Jun 19, 2018 4:51 pm

I agree the pop looks good

Postby **Kaosu** » Tue Jun 19, 2018 5:00 pm

Yes it looks amazing just like the mini.

Would you say that he's a work of art?

Postby **Mauibrah** » Tue Jun 19, 2018 5:34 pm

One of my new favorites. Glad I picked it up

Postby **fforesta9** » Tue Jun 19, 2018 5:34 pm

Gotta be honest I am living for these responses right now.

His stuff is so shiny.
I was excited when he was announced, I don't collect Moana specifically, but sometimes get my favorite villains.

This thread is priceless. Maybe the best on here in a while.

Had no desire for this guy until I saw him in person, and now he may well be one of my favorite Pops. He's incredible! I love Maui's little hook on his back. I'm totally in for a 6 or 10 inch Tamatoa with mini Maui/Moana.

Postby **MiniPop** » Tue Jun 19, 2018 8:17 pm

I haven't seen Tamatoa in person yet, but that is probably my favorite Moana character aside from Moana herself. I can't wait to get him.

Agreed! He looks great! I had to get 2 so I can take one out of the box:)

I've walked by this pop thrice in 3 days, I wonder how long more I can resist.

Postby **bspears82** » Wed Jun 20, 2018 8:00 am

I will have to check this one out in person myself I need to see this

Postby **peruwhite** » Wed Jun 20, 2018 8:05 am

Gonna have to grab this for sure, a definite sleeper.

Postby **chezpopp** » Wed Jun 20, 2018 9:09 am

Need this guy for sure. Also here’s hoping hit topic does their Disney diamond collection on him. If also like a glow in the dark phosphorescence black light version.

Postby **o2thedbld5** » Wed Jun 20, 2018 9:25 am

Honestly, I dislike the song but couldn't agree more with the detail on his pop. The gold, texture on his shell, Maui's hook, to his crusty looking teeth make the pop look incredible. My bf bought one and has him oob.

Postby **kingdomcustoms** » Wed Jun 20, 2018 9:25 am

While I don't like the character particularly, the Pop is practically perfect!

Postby **Imagery** » Wed Jun 20, 2018 9:28 am

The detail of all the treasure on his back is pretty extraordinary. I especially like that they included Maui's hook. I wasn't sure what to expect with this one, but they really did a fantastic job

Postby **Alleycat** » Sat Jun 23, 2018 11:18 am

Blah, blah, blah..... Pics, please

Postby **Crazykidrev** » Sat Jun 23, 2018 2:51 pm

Pop of the YEAR in my opinion. Nothing else releasing this year will have the attention to detail as this Tamatoa does.

Postby **Batz31** » Sat Jun 23, 2018 2:55 pm

Looks good to me.

Postby **Mos_Eisley** » Sat Jun 23, 2018 3:17 pm

It’s great to see this kind of detail on a Pop!

Postby **lavery01** » Sat Jun 23, 2018 3:22 pm

Seen a pic of it. Sweet looking. Now just need to pick it up.

Hahahahahahaha I agree, I was scrolling through all the comments and wondering why no one posted a pic, maybe the picture doesn’t do the pop justice lol

Postby **Nemesis989** » Sat Jun 23, 2018 5:12 pm

I've yet to see one in person yet, but now I feel like I need to hunt one down so I can gaze upon it's awesomeness

Postby **KidMarvel** » Sat Jun 23, 2018 5:22 pm

Agree with most on here that the detailing is insane! The gold on the back of the shell, the hook trully a brilliant pop.

Postby **RobinBear177** » Sat Jun 23, 2018 6:27 pm

The box lunch near me was holding him behind the counter so I couldn't get a really good look

Postby **dexiesmom** » Sat Jun 23, 2018 8:12 pm

He looks so good. The whole Moana set looks amazing!

Yes, was going to say Te Ka and Te Fiti are gorgeous as well. This wave 2 is great, tamatoa included.

I had to google who Tamatoa was. lol

Now I'm intrigued since the pics online don't look that special. Hopefully I can see it in-store.

Best believe he looks sick, the detail is really good for a common release

Postby **x56735x** » Sun Jun 24, 2018 12:13 am

YES! I love the Tamatoa. My gf dislikes the song and the character but can't deny it's impeccable detail and luster which makes me like it even more! It's a great POP but very very very weirdly oriented in the box. One of the only ones that are OOB for me and sits at my bedside table cuz "ITS SO SHINY!!!!" lol

Postby **The-Vicious-Fish** » Sun Jun 24, 2018 2:37 am

My twin hates the song and will always fast forward it, i on the other hand love it and can’t wait to get this pop!!

Who is online
