hunting for stuff can take years not always the weeks or months you seem accustomed too. you have to put your patient hat on.

I did, I see that with the mutant heads poping up now. Waited for a few months, then found them easy to snag.

I don't want to contradict Mr Flynn but I'm not sure that is exactly true. It was my understanding that the release in Japan (at the festival) did not include equal numbers ( I never found out what was the most scarce). Hopefully Dennis, Don or Stu can clear this up.

I think Don has already answered this a few times. And from what I remember is that they where lower.
Him and Mori are proofing the mook so it will be crystal clear soon.

This should help:
So in Japan was it 15 Bigaro I read if you search here, and this post from Ramos:

"so everything is straight on the upcoming real head items. We are set to get a good qty on the following, it will be here a little later in december.
3. slime green set (I am getting only 10 sets, but 10 more of the chaos, head and evil)
thanks
IR"
So less in Japan compared to the other sculpts, and only 10 here, oddly it was the ONE i passed on when I had the chance from S7

The Toy Tokyo retail store in NYC had three of four slime colorways, no Bigaro though...

Me, Stuart , Dennis and Don were in that queue and picked up 2 toys each. They were blind packed and none of us scored the Bigaro!

I think Bigaro had the most defects. Quite a few were handed out as Giveaways.
this deficit came the Japanese lot. The lot for s7 was delivered with equyal numbers of each fig.

isn't the slime bigaro the most common bigaro?

in terms of sheer numbers produced I would say yes.

I remember when the slimes first came out, the bigaro was the red-headed step child of the set. Hardly anybody wanted it.

actually the red-headed step-child version of Bigaro was highly coveted! (i think 6 were made for Masato) another reason why the number of pure slime Bigaros was short.
