yeah i prefer the reburstron over the regular burstron the reburstron is so whacky and absurd yet works perfectly

Who's got photos of the choo choo set for me?

I actually love the way you put that haha! I can see that I suppose. I'm happy owning both.

Open order GID Draki that looks exactly like this one please!:

Yes! Beautiful.

The mind boggles at what sells out in seconds these days and what doesn't. Whatevs, glad I got mine...

Wait what? Did I miss something? I miss Garimpo Zollmen days. Was so much easier to keep up. That Omo site is the worst for info.

EDIT: OK got it thanks SB

Toy Tokyo released a Takemi yesterday.

This place used to be where people would share information. It's pretty funny how it is now. Or not.

people dont even post about open preorders anymore

UMmmmm.... ..Seen the medicom anraku thread. Sometimes it's not about secrecy but more of a laziness thing.

It is sad how little actual toy talk happens on here.
Also, no one seems to get excited for anything anymore . . .
(and if, it is seldom about actual Japanese toys . . . )

Maybe not publicly? I've certainly gotten very hype-conscious, so that if I love something I don't feel comfortable gushing about it and inadvertantly driving prices up... Open runs like Anraku/Medicom are the exception.

No one gets excited in public anymore (stop chuckling, you know what I mean) because as the article posted by Moog in the Nag thread goes to show, there have always been opportunists lurking to take advantage of "true collectors". Even if I manage to get a toy I'm excited about for myself, gushing about it might diminish other people's chances of getting it/subsequent runs for a fair price/at all. Obviously the situation hasn't gotten better in recent years with all those pesky kids crossing over from KR, where flipping is accepted and often even lauded, to Kaijooz. That being said, I find it hilariously ironic that someone just posted a toy that's not even been mentioned here once as trade bait for HxS, because that's how I found out that's the new hawt shit!

I'm definitely excited about this, and since it's still available almost a week after being released I even feel comfortable posting a pic now:

Takemi, it's alright. having a reason to visit m3kcomp at Toy Tokyo. That's what it's all about.

Ordered!!! Sooooo rad!

I'm trying to find a set of zofbie minis
Does anyone have any extra for sale/trade?

There's a wanted section for this type of request.

zitella acida!!!

--- GUSUCUMA MAZA ---

Those Maza's are pretty nice, but I'm starting to wonder if OMO still active.

which mazas??

It has definitely been a quiet year for Zollmen.
I haven't brought anything I think since the first green Maza open order.

Can't really complain about Zollmen not being active enough, only about half of the releases being impossible to get afaic. I think their output this year has been insanely awesome - that GID Draki, the blank black Zofbie set, the TT Takemi and now those Maza which seem to have gone mostly unnoticed (again)...

I'm only checking the Omo site so maybe I should have said that specifically. The new Maza collaboration seems really awkward in amongst all that women's clothing. I just hope we see a few more open orders down the line and a few less under the radar releases.
