It is part of the name. The full name is, I think, Giant Chiteidako Zoromederu.

(Geo's translation is correct.)

as with all of the companies, run numbers aren't given for the regular releases. the special editions as of late have had some run numbers released, but i haven't seen any for these.

the yellow and red is the overseas edition, and the yellow and green version was the monstock exclusive. that's my understanding of it, unless someone knows more.

and to add, i don't think ANY anraku can be considered common. but that's just me.

Basically my head exploding at the idea of painting a Anraku piece.
