Re: Got paranoia?
well I just hope there's another US release that gets released when most people in the US are actually awake. Yes, I'm fucking bitter.

Inflation is a b itch. Fuck'n USA. i got fooled by price tag then. guessing not inflation, but just another japanese toymaker not giving wholesale prices to american "toyshops"??? ...reasonable, but F.U.C.K. japan!!! sadly this biting toy seems to go same route as mc supersizes. ...its all about business.

Re: Got paranoia?
To be fair, between LamourSupreme (man, I love the name), Mishka and NagNagNag, they did a damn fine job on this caveman dude. It IS literally art. And for their concerted effort to make this available in the US, $250 is a steal. In my humble opinion.

I don't think such an assesment can be made about a toy only a few months old with very few versions. "Art" or not. People paid $500+ for certain RxH years back that barely move for MAYBE half the price now.

I think we've seen plenty (and you've a good eye, BD), and we know this guy ain't no fly by night, recent or not. These guys are doing their thang and I don't look at it as business. KT and other similar outfits, those are business. If this were sold there it'll probably double? I'd pay this amount to the maker any day.

Re: Got paranoia?
actually that assessment about KT is a bit skewed these days. I've been a skeptic in the past, but their prices have come down a lot.
as an example, that buta figure up there today could have sold for twice that.

Re: Got paranoia?
Nothing against the toy business, everyone's gotta earn a living. Just saying LamourSupreme (man, I love the name), Mishka and NagNagNag deserve their asking price and its not a business to them. Not that they give a damn. I'm not messing with them. They look like they can shit you in half with some nasty acid poo.

Re: Got paranoia?
Had a feeling that this would be released in the middle of the night. I turned my computer off at 3:15. It's so ironic! That extra 15 minutes will haunt me.

Lets see how long it takes for them to hit the "for trade" section as well as ebay.

Re: Got paranoia?
I totally slept on this one (literally!) The header card was actually a bit of a turn off for me and the price was steep for me, but man, I totally would have gone for one. Let's hope this is the first of many to be offered over to the US. (& Siamese is waaay cooler/more original than the single head)
