I agree with Brian back there. collecting takes patience and a focus. if you want everything under the sun youre going to end up hoarding and missing the point of curating to your tastes. I basically buy these bags in hopes of a Zodiac and the awesome Dethras. Give it time and it will pop around here for a decent price.
Let's get this thread back on track with some PHOTOS! @mildthree @messiyiu @benjamin_wan_ @davidjcoffman @00simons00 @sooolazy @derphead
Jesus, I wouldn't kick the Mecha Zag out of my collection but that Mecha Mibora is so incredibly perfect.
a little birdie told me that super7-mailed bags should be arriving over the next day or 2. hopefully there are still some surprises out there!
.....Or, Crystal Mecha sells okay, and we like making them, so we make them as we like and the people who like them can buy them and the people that don't....don't. And we actually make enough for people to buy which is why a couple colors are still on the webstore and others are sold out, which I think was the point you wanted to make, albeit it is for our toy that nobody wants as opposed to something that YOU want. As far as the Wing Kong, we had factory delays in the painted versions. We aren't in the business of taking things that people want and making sure they never get them. There will be some soon, the you will have a chance to get one just like the other toys we make, and then you can decide if you like it or not and whether you want to buy it or not. Mecha-Zag? No one said Gargamel owes you a Mecha-Zag. Either you get it from them their way or you don't. It's pretty simple.
I don't get the entitlement angle. I am not saying anybody owes me anything, but when you make a sculpt, make it available or it might as well not exist. It's pretty simple.
It's just my opinion man. I'm not asking for your advice on how to collect. I can love my country and not agree with how it is run, just like I can love my toys and not agree on how they are sold. Doesn't mean the fight ever ends...
probably proof that obi wan was a sith lord. and is Jab James related to Jar Jar? anyone get their lucky bags today? wanna post pics?
The bag was $300 for 2 standard figures, 1 medium, 3 mini/pockets, 2 micros. That speaks for itself. Gargamel made Mecha Zag a very common standard in this year's bag. They didn't have to, they could have left it a canvas for one-offs for their shows. They didn't. I think they were very generous to make this sculpt available for so many people. I make an effort to save up my money specifically for a Lucky Bag, because I know it's the best chance I have of getting a standard figure that I like and can afford. If I don't like what I get, I can trade for something I do like. And that's that. I don't know what more there is to discuss. All I know is that we should get back to the photos, because this is getting a bit ugly.
hallelujah!! Well said, I feel like this vent can go to another thread, I didn't score a lucky bag this year either, but I find just as much joy in checking out what everyone got in their bag, so on with the pics! Haha good vibes from here on out
