Hmm if anyone was wondering I was at ToyTokyo earlier today, maybe they dident get their shipment yet but they were not there yet...or at least I dident see em
Ugh, I work overnights and must have finally gone to sleep less than a half hour before these went up, then my alarm (phone) died while I was sleeping... guess this one wasn't meant to be.
Doesn't $100 for a brand new toy seem high. He's about the same size as a normal fight figure, i think, and they cost $35 less. Why's this guy more?
It has 5 points of articulation. Despite being just a bit taller than a fight figure it's definitely larger than a fight figure. And the scales on the body are all detailed by hand (that'd take a long time!). These painted ones are more expensive than the clear was. Also, I'm assuming these are made in much smaller runs since they're new and unproven figures.
dude, you're sooo right. too much money!! let's boycott ojo rojos!!! nobody buy anymore....especially the customs....
I was shocked by the price also, but like NT said, the complex paint job and the POA make it a very nice figure.
retail price in Japan was actually more than the full sized Zags. Ojo Rojo is listed as 7500 yen, Zags are 6300 yen. The clears were $80 though, so maybe it has to do with the paint.
You guys have had a good run. That's the regular average landed price we pay down here for most stuff. Things have never looked better for us here downunder!
