Re: New Secret Base It is such a rad little toy, the original and the sb one, you need one to sit by your long neck ooze it, which i also love
Re: New Secret Base [/quote] Ive never seen this figure before until it was talked about in here. I guess Im a little too young or was it really just a japan thing?
Re: New Secret Base Check out KK's coverage. It was actually US before it was bootlegged in Japan. Very cool background story.
Re: New Secret Base An unusual suspect! http://page6.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/f118724296 I was thinking maybe the Yellow/Glitter Bee from previous Lucky Bags, but he looks Clear/Glitter to me, almost like the Obake Dog I know the header on this auction is from an early release Bee. [/quote]
Re: New Secret Base Not sure what the header says. I'm going to go home and look to see if I have the same one from an early release. I'm sure it is the same and has nothing to do with this glitter Bee.
Re: New Secret Base According to the auction listing, purchasers of a certain Skull Bee at the shop last winter were entered into a lottery to win this Bee. There were a few pieces given out this way. Can't quite make out the kanji on the header. '(Kanji) Ningyou Skull Bee [(kanji) Original]' is all I can read.
Re: New Secret Base Okay, I'm home now and as I said this header is from a previous release. Not this Glitter Bee. This is from a painted Gray version. I know Hiddy has done this in the past with FC pieces where he put old headers on different figures: case in point, this header if from a Black split Bee:
Re: New Secret Base Sure sounds/looks like a lottery release using a recycled header . . . last years Black Ball event maybe?
Re: New Secret Base I've seen that clear glitter bee before on YJA, but it was loose and not up for long.
Re: New Secret Base Ha ha ha - not that I can remember or find in my folders. I'm certain I've seen that bee loose before. Maybe I'm getting it confused with the Obake Dog done up in the same clear with glitter. Don't think so though.
Re: New Secret Base That glitter bee is amazing! I can add it to the crickets want thread alongside that pic of Chad's Lucky bag above.
Re: New Secret Base Did anyone else manage to get the GID Rebel Ink yesterday. I missed out when it was released on Christmas day but a few went in the store yesterday for about 2 hours and then it was sold out again. Just got my invoice through this morning - Result!
Re: New Secret Base Thanks, I was thinking it was something like that, or one of the old stamp card figures.
Re: New Secret Base Here is mine, I never saw these in stores, I got him in the mid 80's as a prize at a carnival. Was shocked when I saw the Secret Base piece. I'd really like to see a side by side comparison.
Re: New Secret Base Hmm, the font looks awfully familiar. XXX! XXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX~!!! XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXX~! XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX
