Don't know if it's true or not, but I heard they only made 17 of this one. So I don't think I'll be getting this version
Damn! Where was this available? Hopefully, there will be different versions so that I can at least get one. If there is only 17 of them, I'm screwed.
I first read about it at balzac308.com. In the October news - "A new Zodiac Skullman figure will also be released (in a very limited quantity!) on November 3rd, when the new Zodiac album hits stores. " Im assuming at shocker.
Just checked the Balzac site... "Zodiac fans can also look forward to the first Zodiac Skullman that will be available very soon as well. The figure will be (you guessed it!) limited to 66 pieces. Also available very soon will be a special "Zodiac Box" that will be limited to only 17 copies!! ...Also included in the box will be very special colored clothing for the soon to be released Zodiac Skullman figure." Well, the good news is that it is limited to 66 pieces (not 17)...the bad news is with only 66 pieces made, I'm still screwed...
I guess your right, but the more they make "limited" is like the more chances I coulda had to get one. If there was just one made, I would feel better about it. At this point its like he's shooting me with that gun, 66 times in the heart, but stopping halfway through to change into his "special colored clothing".
Does the symbol on the shirt has a special signification for Balzac? Because from what I know, that symbol doesn't mean something very nice: http://www.adl.org/hate_symbols/racist_celtic_cross.asp
If you guys subscribed to Super7 magazine, you would already know the answers to many of these questions...
"Zodiac Skullman" Hey guys. This is Ryan from "Horrowood" and "Shocker World Wide" (which will be getting a huge facelift soon, as I am taking over charge of it very soon!). I finally decided I better get in on the action over at this BBS too. I'm glad to hear you guys are really into the Skullman! It's a great figure. As I stated in the news section at Horrorwood, the Zodiac Skullman is limited to 66 pieces. 17 of them were sold at Shocker in Japan just after the Zodiac album went on sale. The remaining 49 figures will be available in December and a handful of them will be available at Shocker Europe and Shocker World Wide. I am trying to get as many as I can for SWW because the Zodiac Skullman is a really cool figure. There will also be a Zodiac Collector's Box that will contain alternate clothing for the Skullman (Skullman sold seperately!). This box will also be available at SEU/SWW... but will differ slightly from the Japanese version.
Looks like I made a mistake. There will be the 17 + the 66 December-released figs. Not the 49 more, I stated above. So, more chance to get your hands on them!
To go a little off topic...here is a link for the 'Zodiac' movie from the director of Seven. Looks interesting.. http://playlist.yahoo.com/makeplaylist. ... 40&qth=400
