^good question. Do they pay for the day or number of figures?

From what I heard, all Tiger 7 were sold out in an instant.

It's cool that manufacturers can make the one-day deals but, what happens if they don't sell everything they make? I'm assuming the numbers are low but, is it a certainty that because they ore one-day licenses they'll sell out? Any idea, anyone?


maybe they can be sold to others that can then sell them? like how super7 had the gargamel blue acroyears and grasshut had the mario sets.. I think both of those were one-dayers right?

I guess I'm definitely a vintage collector now. Absolutely nothing appealed to me what so ever in these pics. Then again new stuff has been in a downward spiral for awhile for me (IMO).


That's a downer and I'm sorry to hear it. I had been a bit down on toys the past couple months but this WF has enough stuff (one day and straight up originals) to keep me pumped for a long time. I haven't been this happy about a wave of releases in a long time.

RxH Bear thing is awesome. But we knew that. Not saying the rest of this stuff sucks or is even bland, just not for me. Those little flesh warrior dudes are pretty bad ass too.

I always think "what property would I jack if I had a toy released at WF?" it's a tough question! Probably something from old Burton, Beetlejuice or Edward Scissorhands related. But honestly classic WWF/WCW wrestlers as fight figures would kick ass too.

Axolotl has been wondering about the Ooze for the longest time, wonder if he saw this? I'll qualify my earlier remarks- I like the new purple M1 Kanegon.

Totally nasty. Great to see that Longneck is still producing stuff. Just look at that right arm - super crude. Not sure why it includes that train though.

Image

These Denwakingu/Telephone King also look great. Super weird in a good way. Like something bizarre and unexplainable from a thrift store. Very excited about these.

ImageImage

Love the spiggots on this one. Looks like they even turn. Very cool concept.

I think it's a different ooze that he was looking for.
I think this was the one..

By the way I wonder what came first, the above mini figure OR the ooze-it.
From kadioum's discription the Longneck toy is supposed to a planet with craters?

Thanks Lixx for pointing this out. I love them both!! Bryce is right, I believe the small one to be the one I've been looking for. And it turns out now it's two I need! But from what I understood, the Longneck one was not available yet.

It's slotted to go on sale in August. I believe this URL has all the details and links:

www.toy-garage.jp/app_ultra-p

Soon I'll be posting an interview I filmed with Marusan's boss in which he discusses the app in more detail.
