    Wow!
    I'd love to get my hands on #16, #18, #19, #20, #21, #22.
    I'm not a big fan of the Phantom 8 (Bee Man) suit but I dig #10, #12, #13 - haven't seen these before! I imagine these are all long sold out as I recognize most of them.

    #13 is pretty cool, comes with different feet and 6 different hand attachments, as well as the regular two feet and two hands.

    Anyone know what the deal is with the jumpsuits?

    I think #18 is my favourite Toxic.

    I love #14 and #18 - the only one I have is #14 though.
    Aren't 14, 16, and 18 colorways done by Take Shit, Hiro Grim and (someone else). I can't remember who did which (or who the third person is!).

    That's crazy that #13 comes with so many different hands/feet! I don't know anything about the jumpsuits, but that's partially why I like #10 and 12.

    I wish the Secret Base site wasn't so Flash heavy and that you could grab and translate text.

    This sale was for body and suit. All are from Hiddy's display so only one of each were up for grabs. I remember the line up in the cabinet when I was there 18 months back before he moved to the store he just closed down.

    I think the 14, 18 and 19 are all Cure releases that came in the cereal boxes - and yeah done by different designers colour wise i think as NT said.

    I managed to pick up some from the sale. Not sure that any of the extras that usually come with the bodies will be included and not sure about packaging either.
    I also wonder if the Cure Bee will get all the extra attachments with it too. But fantastic prices all told.

    The jump suits I think are medicom and I know the Chrome Bee suit never actually came with that jump suit. Never seen that purple Bee suit before, nor the jump suit he is in. Looks like a Medicom body underneath or an Obitsu body.
    I was told that some of the Henshin bodies were actually OG Henshins and not reproduction ones.

    We ALREADY :cry: know

    This is an amzaing sale, and I bemoan the fact that I am on the West Coast, and likely missed out on all that good shit!

    There are a few things there which are/were proto only - such as the clear colored jump suits, and the silver one. As pointed out earlier the clear purple bee was never released. I applied for that one - but am likely way toooooo late.

    The Cure suit basically comes with an entire extra suit of Cure parts in teh same clear w/silver spray colorway. Very special. Very hard to get. VERY NICE.

    Here's some pics of all the attachments in the cure set:

    [​IMG]

    I've put the different legs on, and two of the different arm attachments on. Not sure if they're supposed to be in pairs though. Theres also two Cure alien head sculpts that i'm after. Managed to track down one of the grey versions of the head :twisted:

    I only went for it after you told me about all the extra gubbins. The pic on the auction was of it still MIB, so it looked like a plain suit with nothing extra apart from a fancy shcmancy sticker on it :lol:

    Some of these suits came with some sick shit, T-shirts, stickers, all kinds of cool stuff, I don't know, if these were all pulled out of the display, I doubt the cereal box suits, come with all their accesories, which in my mind are half the reason I love SB suits. But I could be wrong, and even if I'm not wrong, If I had the money and means, I'd buy every single one of them, accesories or not.

    But what I wanted to tell you guys is this, I don't know about the other ones in question, but do know the 19 suit, isn't cure, It's the Hiro Grim cereal box suit.

    Yeah, 14, 18 and 19 are all the Hirogrim Toxic pack suits and nothing to do with CURE.
    No. 16 is the CURE 5th Anniversary Toxic Pack with SagaChang artwork.

    Got my order today:

    There was absolutely no packaging in the parcel. But it did have the small plastic bags for each of the suit parts. They also sent the stands they used. Anyone know where you get these types of stands? They also come with an attachment for a thinner waist so it would fit the obitsu's.

    They also sent two extra bee inner heads. It looks like one is a dupe of the bee I have, and i'm not sure on the other. Sent the OG outer head for the body that the bee is on, as its an OG body. And they also sent an extra clear blue head, looks like Biotron. Not sure of his proper name.

    Ok, here's the three suits I got.
    All three are from the Toxic Pack series. Two are on repro Henshin bodies and the purple one is a repro Walder body that only comes with the Dokuro King suit set from Takara.

    So, all three:

    I can't believe you got 3, Mori! I really wanted #18 or one of the Death Phantoms. But I had no idea they were actually selling these...
