Just spot this , and wonder where / when this is sold ?

last year some time. Right around when the GID LS set was sold--but I'm not 100% sure.

A secret version released by LS ? or released by Mori ? funny secret version, hmmmm

I think it was released by Mori. LS only did the U.S. figure/shirt/artwork set. Around Decemberish?

I'm not much help. Sorry.

I think Junk Spot or Jyrinco or something sold it along with a flesh vinyl/green paint Mutant and flesh vinyl/green paint Evil. Not many around, 12ish I thought? I'm to lazy this early to go use "search" but you'll find the info if you do. I bet "flesh + akro + pink" brings it up.

ok, I'm not too lazy, EDIT: viewtopic.php?f=18&t=16833&hilit=flesh+akro

thanks blooddrink.

Now I got clue why this head

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 3DWatching

is end up somewhere above 5xx !!

Actually, I think the Head was the most limited of the 3- only something like 5 pieces were released.

I don't know the numbers, but I do remember that the Head was the rarest of the three, and even the Akro and Evil were themselves editions of 15 or fewer. IIRC, mondocoyote was at the store on release day and got the Akro and Evil, but even he missed out on the Head.

I remember when these were released and I didn't care.
How the times have changed.
I pretend I don't care nowadays.

They are all pretty cool. I like the Evil and the Akro best out of the three.

That's the same Akro that sold on Mandrake today?

Yup, same one.

Wow, I did not think that would go easily at that price.

i always wonder how Mandarake gets their figures... does Mori sell it to them direct? or does someone buy it from the shop and sells it to them (or maybe someone who works for Mandarake).

Brian got that Akro for his Birthday. Ava gives great gifts.

I always wonder wtf happens to the bags and headers, half the stuff comes totally loose. Who throws those things away?

And who sells test shots to them??? Like those black and red Gargamel ones a while back, and the flesh Cyclomanion that sold a few days ago.

yeah.. was pissed i missed the flesh cyclo

maybe i don't want to know how they get their figures... keep that mystique

I believe those are from the shelf in the shop of Mori so they don't come with bags and header.
1) And mandarake is such a big distribution shop which mori couldn't refuse to help providing stuff to sell (in order to catch people' eyeball and create noise)

2) And mandarake also provide service to those collectors to sell their stuff, for those who don't wanna post on yja.

For some items which is posted at ridiculous low price (e.g. the pink proto chaos a few months ago) That certainly is not a consignment like case 2. That is a case 1.

And now seeing mandarake seeing a lot of rare rxh on the bay like the clear purple evil. They started realizing how much the rxh worth and won't sell them at un unreasonable low price on mandarake anymore. Only a few will be spot.

I saw that Flesh Cyclo too while it was available and just thought it was a regular release while being too excited scooping up something else awesome from the site that morning. Than after thinking about it I realized that it wasn't part of the flesh sets.

I would've passed still, unpainted flesh isn't for me. I have tons of unpainted flesh at home.

hope i'm not stepping on any toes or breaking any unwritten manlaws, but the akro is still available on mandarake

I'd love to pull the trigger on that.

Just too much dinero right now.

...dammit.

Heh, guess someone had a change of heart.

Thx GD.

Wasn't me.

Wish it was.
