    There was a handwritten 36/100 on my box.

    Took a good look at mine, nothing handwritten on the box that I can see.

    They reopened orders this past week, ending tomorrow. And judging from this photo from their IG there are more than one hundred..



    My friend also had a number out of /100 written on her shipping box. Its totally possible that it was amongst the first one hundred orders.. But I think if it were a legitimate numbered edition it'd be cited on the actual box for the figure inside. Not that it really matters, although it is interesting.

    just curious...but why would the numbering matter?If you like devilman buy it. If you like artist buy it. If you only bought it because it might be limited..lame.

    Whenever I buy toys...I don't care about packaging/rarity/numbers etc.I get it because I like it. Seems funny to be doing this after the game has changed.

    I'd be surprised if those were the first 100 orders since I placed mine within the first 30 seconds of the Unbox site loading up, thinking it was a limited run that I'd lose to more passionate collectors (and of course, lots and lots of flippers) within 5 minutes. @bryce_r, I think that touches on your point. Of course I enjoy the feeling of owning limited or one-off pieces, but getting something made to such a high standard in an open run was an awesome feeling, and I think the fleeting joy of owning something rare means much less than the fact that pretty much any collector who loves this design has had a fair shot at it.

    Also, unrelated but they look pretty cool headless! I might try heating it up and doing some swaps now ;)

    Don't do it. That pic isn't of the figure headless, it's faceless. It's a soft vinyl figure but some small parts had to be injection molded and attached to the vinyl. I would assume that means a few pieces are factory glued on. You go heating it up to mess around and you could ruin the figure by damaging the injection molded parts or just melting the glue.

    For what is worth, the 100 I think refers to shipping. Cos I saw 44/100 on my shipping box. Regardless, is a great toy!!

    Just to clear up any confusion, the figures were not numbered and 100 is not the run size. The shipping department may have had a system going where they were marking boxes.

    Thanks for the kind words about the figure and I greatly appreicate anyone that picked up the green Devilman!

    this toy turned out great.. it was torturous but fun following the production, loving the original art, seeing the amazing sculpt, and anticipating the final result. I love that it's extra horror-geeky, befitting Sutfin's style, but is still Devilman and not X-treme Amon.

    $160 - Payment Plan Available

    They obviously are out of touch with today's collector. People easily will drop 1000-3000+ on a toy.
