I have always been kind of astounded that all of the current Super7 exclusives have not sold out, and some have been sitting there for quite some time.

Why don't these sell out, particularly at such limited numbers? In the "early days," the exclusives vaporated like a drop of water on a hot griddle.

Some of the currently available exclusives (e.g., the Toygraph Mecha Godzilla, the Dream Rocket Gazura) are among the favorites in my collection.

These are unique, exclusive editions, and most of them are really nice pieces.

So, what gives, S7 fans?

That's easy...some guys buy godzilla toys, some buy secret base, some buy gargamel, but we don't all buy the same kind of toys. So 65 of one kind of toy may not sell as quickly as 65 of another toy.

Geo I think things where different back then. Even then not everything sold out. I remember the Godzilla stuff hanging around for a long while. Most of the super quick sell outs where the ghost fighters or fight figures in general. And as of late S7 has been dropping their own brand of toys which is to be expected, the ghostland series. And not everyone collects that line.

I for one really only collect RxH so for me all the S7 exclusive releases I go for sell out stupid quick .... the orange booska, the S7 Akro and organ bat, bruised chaos etc... ALL GONE QUICK !

So to me the fire is still there for exclusives. And worse than ever ! :)

I don't know. But, I am not having the problems others seem to complain about.

I guess it was just a response to somebody else's suggestion to upgrade their Windoze software (which IMO is a joke).

Good question. I finally got around to buying the S7 Gazura and I love it.

I think the mentality is that if it has been available for 6 months, it will be available forever. I know I tend to put off buying things that I want, if I think that they'll be there later.

I guess the question should be (and what is surprising to me), is why this kind of BS and blatant harassment is tolerated on ANY thread?

you know it baby.

Mon Oct 15, 2007 6:48 pm

I think Taro gets ganged up on a little too much (it just goes to prove some of the grudges that are held around here -- though I honestly don't know much of the whole stories), and I also don't think this type of thing is really all that tolerated. But what do I know.

Mon Oct 15, 2007 6:58 pm

I think there are some around here who think it goes hand in hand with "RFSO."

hey guys,

i said this before in a different thread involving different people, and it should be assumed that this applies to everyone everywhere.

please feel free to express your opinions, have fun, talk about toys, goof off, tease each other a bit, whatever, etc... i'm not your mom or your babysitter, so im certainly not going to tell you how to behave.

that said, please dont be a dick for no reason. theres no need to bring up old grudges at every opportunity, and that goes for everyone on both sides of the issues. please play nice.
