people pay $145 for full-sized anraku all day long.

Im sure people would cough up that much for full-sized exohead.

you could charge $200 and it would still sell out :lol: :lol:

He really wants to have his stuff available here, but the prices....

Why doesn't S7 step in and make something happen? Seems like the logical people to make it happen. Paging Dr. Flynn!

Maybe they will. Don't know if this applies, but there was this:

I think you have all seen that many places have been jumping in with near reckless abandon thinkling that kaiju is the next big thing. I will say that we have a VERY good plan in place to care of most of this going forward, and that you will see better decision making coming from Japan. More on this in a few weeks. In the meantime, get your typing fingers ready.

makes no difference in price for S7 or for me. same price applies.

Flynn and I have already extensively discussed the exohead situation.

I'd buy one at that price in a good color way, but it's not the kind of thing I need like 8 of. Appreciate you trying either way.

There are some standard sized vinyls that I will pay over $100 for. I like this sculpt, but it is NOT one that I would pay that much for. Oh, well. It was cool to see the photos.

All day long................... :oops:

Anyway, on this, for an easily available GID version, yeah like $135 is what I'd pay depending on time of the month (no, I don't bleed from my genitals, it's a paycheck thing) and depending on color scheme.

What colors are you thinking? I think some metallics on GID would prolapse some buttholes round' here.

It seems the plan is in place to get the price of a $40 toy as high as possible. Are you sure you'll only pay $135-145 for this piece of plastic? I like Tavaro's idea: let's pay $200!

Yeah, $135-$145, pretty sure. For $200, no.

I'd rather have more minis available to us for around $40. I generally hate minis, but the sculpt is just so great - and $40 is a lot more manageable than $140. I think you'd see a lot more people buying all sorts of colorways, rather than just one or two of the large fellas.
Maybe that's where the smart decision making Brian was talking about comes in - just a couple large figures released per year, but a steadier flow of the smaller figures. That would be nice!

Yeah, w/me mini's turn me off though. I mean there's a few color ways I like it in, but I'd rather have 1 or 2 big dudes than 5-6 little guys. Just me though.

there is no 'plan'.

the Exohead guy charges XXX amount. end of story. which means it has to be sold for XXX+ amount, end of story. me, I think they cost too much. But I really like the sculpt, so, I will take a chance on it once. If it 'blows out' and sells like crazy them maybe I will do it again.

I'm down also. I think, given the price, setting up a day when it would go on sale beforehand would be nice. Not all of us have tons of cash lying around and I'm pretty sure a majority of kaiju addicted people (most of us) would hold off on other purchases to clear way for this. Just my 2 cents...
