 Re: inexpensive rangeas sighting
Noticed that earlier today. Have you done so with their "reserve" method? It seems to be a type of pre-order, just wondering how that works with them?

this one works a little different than what i have done.
i bought the dehara dogs before they were available. i went through the process of buying it when the item said it would be shipping a month or so later
this one you just send them your request - no paypal or anything like that. so maybe the factory will make these dependent on the number of requests?

That's pretty cool, especially since it's the best Rangeas IMO.

Saw the figure this morning. a kick-ass figure for a reasonable retail price. THANK YOU! T9G and co. deserve chocolate cake for that one!
I hope I reserved one in time. Now I wait. If I can score a pink one and this GID, the next one should be pretty easy  Then I would have "satisfied" my Rangeas obsession; GID, Clear, Full-color solid, Solid unpainted. OW!

This and that clear Pink are the 2 best to me, I wish I was going to SDCC to claim a Pink one, but I'd be most happy if this one came through.

Once you start, there's no going back . . . take it from me.

Hhhmmm....
Here's the info I have on this piece: it's a One-Up exclusive, limited to 65 pieces. One-Up sold 15 at the Taipei Toy Fest recently; the other 50 are going to be sold by a lottery system, with fifty buyers selected on 7/15...so...I don't know how Few Many's pre-order fits in with that.....

GID vinyl made me take my first step into collection japanese vinyl. The Rangeas glo is probably my favorite glow toy that I've seen.
If you don't have GID toys, you haven't lived.

How long did that take? A few hours, I'd have thought less with our rabid asses for GID and this new cool sculpt + the great price.

Tokyocube generally does what they say they will do. If you got in on the pre order they will likely pull through for you.

Hmm, so is it a lottery or a reservation?

Missed out but from the email they sent and the link it looks like they were pre-sales (limited to 1 per customer).

Yeah, nothing was mentioned about a lottery or anything. If they were picking names out of a hat, you would hope that they'd say something about it. But generally, you pay for pre-sales up-front with them. I've never done the "request" with tokyocube. I guess nothing is set in stone until they send you some kind of confirmation with a payment request--sold-out or not.
