Post Ghost Fighter Question!
Okay, been going through the collection, displayed and stored. Its been awhile on some stuff and I am not up on the details like I used to be. I busted out the mook, love that damn thing, and I did not see the no paint all GID GF. I have GID, 02, 03, 05, 07 and 12 in the display case. Had 01, but gave it to a buddy a couple of years ago.

So, was the all GID no paint the proto or give away? Brian told me once but now I spaced it.
I know, i know ... i am a tool for not knowing this! :D

I believe both!

It was a test pull but there were 16 or so made which Brian and Hiddy gave away to friends and acquaintances.

Brian had some mixed parts GID/Flesh/Black? protos/test shots, I know Ramos got one. The GID was given away in Japan, I want to say Secret Base Club members, but not sure.

it's listed in one of the old issues of the magazine.

brian wrote an article about collecting and completism and basically said if you have all of them except the GID you should consider yourself complete:)

it's a great article that i think a lot of people here should read....

Flynn's quote from waaaay back!

Officially, the glow GF was never "released". There are only 33 of them, and they were made by Hiddy to just give away from extra vinyl left over from another run. About 8 total made it over to the states, most were given away in Japan. Many of those have slowly leaked back from overseas sellers. The last GID I heard of was traded on this board through PMs for $600. Before that, it was a long time since I had heard of one selling and it was in the $300 range.

I've seen them for sale a few times, once on YJA for about 30,000 yen BIN. I passed since I dropped GFs well over a year ago.

Think Living Dead had two at one point.

I currently have three solid GID GF's and one GID GF with clear Black arms. More than anything I would LOVE a flesh color GF.

Hank, Toby and I think two or three other board members got GID GF's from me. Man it sure would have been sweet to keep all the ones I had my hands on.

***BRING BACK THE GF!!!!! :!: :!: :!: :!: :!: ***
please :!:
