    Excuse the terrible instagram pictures, I'll take some better shots in time. Thanks to everyone who has helped me out, traded with me, and a bit of luck. This is a toy I couldn't get enough of from day 1.

    Thanks everyone. It really took some focus, time, luck, and lot of thinking through trades. I'm thoroughly obsessed with this toy, and thankfully PK keeps making more. I still need a glow, pink, and flesh base vinyl to have at least 1 of every color :mrgreen: Every time I get close, 3 more colors come out. I love the self induced joy and pain of this hobby so much.

    Great pic!

    I think keeping all the colors very diverse, all this time, has been the ultimate challenge.
    Seeing most of the various different colorways, as for runs, or one offs I've done in such group shots is purely satisfying to me.

    Guess what, it's going to get crazier!

    Thanks for sharing that! :D

    Just saw the pics from the Rampage show. Amazing bats. I just hope no one jumped the gun on the m-world prices. Absolutely absurd.

    ^^ Seconded. I feel bad for fans that attended the show. Really hope that at least some of the figures went to good homes :|

    On a positive note: congrats on your first Bat, Simon. That's a really great picture, thanks for posting.

    Mworld wouldnt grab anything unless they were paid (or reserved by someone they deal with alot) beforehand. So unless a bunch of people paid their price then im sure most went to good homes.

    I take it all back... just saw the email for myself and it says "consignment sales"
    which means they definitely had them or someone they know :(

    Well, all the people who went to get something to keep got something to keep and were pretty happy.

    The report was good.
    Flippers show. What else is new?
    Masato does these "Commission" sales regularly.

    The show was a good one - and the fans who came out all went away with the toy they wanted. Paul's bats, biters and pilots were gorgeous - it was a pleasure to have them hanging around for a couple hours! We limited sales per person very strictly - there were a lot of people.

    Yes - there were flippers in the crowd. In Japan (and everywhere else), there are always flippers in the crowd. In Japan these guys are like smelly, unkempt salarymen - it's all they do. Most of them buy and sell Nikes too!

    Yes they were and I also really liked those pink Bats you painted up, Jon. Thanks for beating me to it David :razz:

    Glad to hear about all the fans who went home happy from the show.

    Agreed. One thing I love about the bats are the crazy paint applications.

    The orange bat and hell mock we're stand outs to me.

    Show opened at 7pm. Everyone who arrived starting at 6 and prior to 8 got a nunbered ticket (with entry time noted) allowing purchase of one standard figure and one mini. Initial tickets were finished at 8. We then did another raffle around 8:20 for the few remaining items. Only one person came after that time (to buy - plenty came to drink and hang out), and I can't feel bad that someone showing up 1.5 hours after start couldn't get a toy. At festivals, if you aren't there at raffle time you lose - here we handed out tickets for 2 hours buddy - that's two hours to get a chance at what you want. Not sure who your friend was, but I'm acquainted with every non-flipper who came, and not a single non-flipper had anything to gripe about.

    People - seriously - what's the point of this discussion? This was a Japan based ONE NIGHT show/party with the intent of sale to Japanese customers. I don't see this type of complaining going on about every festival lottery or Mandarake release that happens.
