It is a secret, that is the joy of Lucky Bags!

Will this include standard sizes or just minis? Will all pieces be handpainted or just one?
Thanx

So the Garg bags are only 1 size, a $400 bag? That's different from prior years right? I'm crossing my fingers for some clear full sized Bakos, if not in the LB at least sometime in 08 now that we have the bodies for it!

Just a question... The Lucky Bag sets that are $400 per bag.
Is that 1 figure per bag? I've never scored a lucky bag before so I'm interested.

Oh no... typically, lucky bags are a mish mash of different figures of varying sizes... so you'd get like 2 standard sized figures, and maybe 3 minis...
That's not to say that the $400 gargamel bags will have that specific mix, but you'll definitely get more than a single figure for that much.

last year most bags were sold sealed, only unsold bags were pieced out, and that was after two weeks or so.
Lucky Bag sets will be $400 per bag Invisible Kaiju Packs will be $240 if they come in an M1 egg, or $200 without egg
Both will be available by Distribution partner stores on Jan.1 at 12 noon pacific, 3pm eastern.
Hmm...I don't remember any sealed bags being sold by S7 last year. I remember I wanted one but all the bags were broken up and figures distributed.
Anyway, will the "distribution partner stores" physically have these items on the 1st or just be taking orders?

I hate to be the bad news messenger but the bags didn't show up from Japan until today. We got them shipped out to the store this afternoon but they might not make it to the stores in time. I would call on the 31st to make sure they have them.
Super7 will be putting ours bags up for sale online at 12pm (pacific time) Jan 1st.
if all goes according to plan the other stores will have them for sale at the same time.

Yeah, I'm hoping that they come in on time. I also hope that there are enough to go around, but just in case, I may get there a bit earlier.
Do you any of you know if Rotofugi is going to give out numbered tickets, like they did with Toy Karma?

I would ask this question in the Chicago forum. I think Kirby is reading it.

Will there be smaller Gargamel Lucky bags at S7 (as in previous years)? Or is the bag that Roto is carrying the only size this year? ($400 = yikes!)

the skulltoys x blobpus pairs are separate from the lucky bags. these will be sold as sets of two.
the blobpus lucky bags are completely random as to what is inside, and they will be sold as bags. so far, there are no plans to break them up. if that changes, we will let everyone know.
