    Don't worry, I was kidding too. I think the "list" is also a joke, so doesn't really matter who's in it :)

    Can't wait to see more version of Gorz come up outside of today's SF. If GT or medicom somehow end up with their own versions like the Neo Gs then I will be all over that.

    They were for display only, per Sakaguchi-san.

    I can't believe Pepy had chains connected to detachable hands. Awesome!!! I wasn't feelin' him before but now I really want one...

    Wow, those went really fast.

    I mean we all like the toy but do we need to pay these prices?

    No but you'll always get people who have to have it, and think they'll never be able to get one otherwise- throw idiot money at something just to show off their little trophy. At the same time they excite flippers and ruin it for everyone else. Same people who feel like a asshats when they later see them going for half that price.

    They are just 1 of a kind books designed purposely to look like they are old manga. Per Andy the pages inside are just blank paper.

    God I must say Pepy is THE SHIT! I really need me one of those!

    And I would love a print of one or both of those vintage style mags that were done up for SF!

    I had to have it.,,,The goetzu sold out with the guy in front of me. Urghh. The line was ridiculous.
    Somehow the green were sold out before he set up. Hmm, i think i know where to find those soon st bargin prices.

    I got a pepy. The chain arms are fkn cool, they both pull out but are attached inside so they kind of just dangle around all gimpy.
    Packaging of course is great.

    Got a lil brain dude too.

    I always thought it was blue! Then I went back to see the photos and in fact it looks blue in one and minty on the other. :? So it's actually mint. And so, he had some kind of deal with some people under the table?

    you know what they say about owls. love these clear ones. but anyone has any idea how i'd get my hands on these stuff? especially Görz. JP stockists? don't seem to have any mode of communication in the blog.
    kicking myself for not getting an Altered Man at retail or so when i was at Mandarake Akiba last month :?

    I believe (though I could be wrong) exhibitors had an early crack at buying other peoples' toys. If I remember correctly, Sakaguchi sold out of everything before the doors opened at last year's SuperFest as well.

    I really don't get the whole " Sold out before it began" thing. He has to know it will sell out so hold at least half for the people.

    This sort of thing totally turns me off to any brand. When collecting their toys becomes impossible why bother

    Well Ilu Ilu has gone and worked for us to get them too in the past. GT had a run of the 1st Gorilla's special made for them after the 1st run sold out at the show. So they sold out at the show then made more since demand was there. Sounds good.

    Re: ILU ILU: Neo Gorilla, Tokio, Görz, and other toys!

    I believe this is the case but there seems to be a whole bunch of shenanigans at Superfest. Sometimes tables are set up selling outside, other times organisers request stuff not be sold before the doors open . . .

    That makes 3 for 3 . . . next time I'll disagree just to break the cycle!

    That said, they were show exclusives and you were sat on your ass in your nice comfy studio 7,000 miles away so I guess you, I, or anyone else not lining up on the day shouldn't be too pissed about it!

    Hasn't this been discussed to death already?
    I remember Kozik discussing this...

    I'm guessing a number of sales (before the doors opened) went to collectors via agents.
    Also, if a new toy is cheap and readily available it loses some appeal with alot of collectors.
    It just is, what it is.

    I recently picked up a piece I spent four long years looking for...
