i think most folks will feel this way. you have to be really a boogie fan to pay this amount at retail. may not be a bad thing because i think not many resellers or casual collectors would be motivated to stock-up on such high-cost, low margin item, which will be easier for others who truly want it to score at retail. IMHO, this is well worth every penny.
I don't think it's so much of how big of a "fan" someone is vs. how big their wallet is. Just because one can afford it means they're more into it? This type of thinking always bugs me, I can't afford tons of toys I love, especially older stuff, but I wouldn't say someone who can spend a ton on it is a "bigger fan" than me. Just more well off, and good for them, but it doesn't take away my credibility as a fan.
I dunno it seems like a fair price to me, 80 for the fig and 80 for the suit bascially. Its actually inline with SB suits. I think concept wise its amazing I am not a big boogie fan but I can always appreciate a well thought out toy.
i feel like the head is way too simple compared to the uber detailed guts, boots, and gloves...great great great concept thou
Looks too much of a mess to me compared to the elegant phantom suits. What's this about the suit being sold with a figure but also being sold separately? And the suit has 10-11 parts?
Maybe it's the colors that make it look like it's a mess. Wonder how the suit would look just on the All Clear Boogie. And I believe you can just buy the suit separately. That way if you have a "spare" Boogie, you can fit it onto him. And no idea how the suit is 10 parts. I can count only 5. Head, 2 arms, 2 feet. Unless the head is a complicated puzzle. Also, I wonder what the new head sculpt looks like.
I like this a lot. Can't wait to see the head!!! Possibly 6 pieces, the "scarf" might be seprate from the mask
oh man, i really want this boogie..gonna have to start saving hardcore, hopefully i will be able to score one in a month or so
I keep hearing ten parts for the suit. And eleven parts for the suit and Boogie. Makes no sense how the suit can be ten pieces unless there are extras.
I dunno, but remember - the Toxic Phantom has 3 heads. Maybe: #1 - Left Boot #2 - Right Boot #3 - Left Glove #4 - Right Glove #5 - Shoulder Tentacle #6 - Outer Head #7 - 2nd Head (Tomato) #8 - Inner Head #9 - Guts??? #10 - ??? #11 - Body
I don't have any idea really either, but I can't imagine the original Boogie Man foot fitting into anything so maybe it's a two part snap together piece. So that could make it: 2 pieces - left foot 2 pieces - right foot and some sort of combination like that??
Multiple heads?! I was looking at it yesterday wondering how those feet fit over the regular ones, esp. Without looking gigantic. I think LD is right w the multiple foot theory. I never had a boogie to know the feet are removeable/adjustable.
Cure doesn't sell to US buyers - how do you guys get your Boogies? Agents? YJA? Flippers? This is the only one I feel I need to pick up.
All of the above. I believe it was said that S7 staff wasnt feeling them so they werent going to try and get them.
