Post Ghostland Sets for pre-order.
Ghostland is available for pre-order! Check the webstore! You can pick up a set in your favorite color or buy a complete set! They will be available at the beginning of December. Yes, individual figures will be available as well, in fact, they're already available at the S7 store!

To answer your question, these are designed by the Super 7 man himself, Brian Flynn. They were sculpted by Gargamel owner, Kiyoka Ikeda.
They are a new line of Super 7 figures that was introduced at San Diego Comi-con 2007.
Each ghost represent how they became the ghost. I think Brian can tell you the whole story when he sees this. :wink:

Most Kaiju releases are limited but only rarely have a disclosed run size. Buy 'em if yer like 'em'! Whether 10 or 10,000, if yer buyin' em for retail $$$ it shouldn't matter!

No panty bleeding here dude!

no worries... it's just a curiosity thing...

I just like to know the ratios and detailed information about the things I'm buying or into... it's not about "if I like em' buy em" because I buy a lot of stuff that is limited and a bunch of stuff that is not so limited...

I just like to know for the sake of knowing... why does everything have to be such a secret within the realm of japanese vinyl... so stupid...

Because the information is generally abused if put out there. Something "not popular all of a sudden is "super rare" and than it becomes "popular." Hence the: "#'s shouldn't matter or make you like it" tude'.

I don't think it is really a secret. It's just that no one really ever asks for a run number so, no one really knows. Someone has to know in order to keep track of stock.

Speaking of bleeding panties....remember that scene in Superbad....omg, that was really funny, kinda gross, but pretty funny.

edition sizes are typically not made public information to prevent people buying things just for rarity with the hope of resale/profit.

we know most collectors buy these toys purely for the love, and the edition size is no more important than an interesting factoid, its just kind of become the way things work.

with most japanese vinyl figures, you can assume the run is small. with ghostland, it is considerably larger.
