 Re: A Nag Pa I Root
"internationally acclaimed" artist involved or not, 500 for a new toy is such a joke. comical really
i just feel bad for people who showed up, won the lotto, then couldn't even purchase the toy. so sad

 Re: A Nag Pa I Root
This shit is humorous enough for me to think this is all just a social experiment but the toys are too good. I think you could do a PHD thesis on the effects of HYPEZ!

 Re: A Nag Pa I Root
Ugh, I was gonna get into this whole stupid argument again, but thought better of it and deleted my post.
I'm really sick of arguing about pieces of plastic.

 Re: A Nag Pa I Root
I just don't understand why they kept the price a surprise? It set an awkward tone for the event. And I also won one the prints. But I took mine home loose, so if any of you guys that got yours folded want mine, hit me up and I will pass it along. With that being said... the Nag looked amazing in person and congrats to the people that won the lottery.

 Re: A Nag Pa I Root
I personally don't think the prices were outrageous or out of line. I didnt even mind the auction. But if the prices were previously announced as $200 and then they changed it to $500 that's kinda shitty.

This is only what I have heard. I think the problem is that is was supposedly posted and taken down. I almost wonder if they were discussing a 200 dollar mark up and someone who does online stuff for them thought that was the asking price and posted it. I am not going to really take any sides on this one though since I never personally saw it posted. Still though, if it was I can understand peoples anger over it. $200 for a NAG would be just to damn cheap though. Although I'm sure his mold costs have been covered by now, it can't be cheap to have just 10 of a base color poured. Of course this lends to our usual argument of "please make more" but at the end of the day it is Shig's choice. I do think however it's sad this toy probably has more fans than owners. In vintage toys that is quite understandable but for something being produced now it could easily be changed. The risk would be losing some hype but I don't think Shig's skill need the hype to prosper. Que sera sera, I just have to hope to one day win a lotto, or that a board member will be nice and sell me one for less than eBay prices. cough... hint hint  I love this mind set, but its like telling an artist to just paint more paintings dammit and dont sell them in a gallery cause they are going to just jack them up and then you are going to get famous and the gallerys are going to want to charge more and a tube of paint only costs like $5 and that canvas cost nothing, and blick is having a 50% off sale on canvas so like you can by a hundred and paint them all and sell em all so everyone can afford one, and then yea, yea I agree, but in my opinion instead of the artist having to do more work, I see it more like, "Hey (artist) we really like your work, but it's so limited, so instead of originals could we get prints of your work. So for all of us that miss out, pretty please go to a printer (vinyl factory) and get us some prints (unpainteds)."
