Not Yeti Friday - Mysterious Creepy Veiny Figure



runnerkara on flickr titled her photo "Abominable Snowman", but I don't think it is.

I mean, yetis don't usually have shoulders that go up to the tops of their heads. Or veins.

  2. Thank you, john backstrom. Can you tell us if it is meant to be specifically an Abominable Snowman? Or just a monster? That is the true mystery.

  3. This guy is Jamira/Jamila from Ultraman series. ;-)

  4. Thanks, WhiteGrizzlor!

    I didn't realize he breathed fire!

    He's not very yeti-like, is he?

    "Woo" is the best candidate from the Ultraman series.

  5. Yep, it's hard to say what Jamira exactly is. I can't.

    You're right about Woo ! I've got a toy of him and I forgot to mention !
    Just in case, there's another one called Gigas or Gigass who's a kind of yeti too.
