 Re: Shikaruna Kobo (fixed)

I didn't see the figures size noted on any sites yet, is it the avg ~9"??? Too bad you can't get the vinyl seperate from the books. I haven't yet recovered from my purchases of the past few days enough to get this for 2 bills.

 Re: Shikaruna Kobo (fixed)
Drat  everytime I've found any SK Zag's for sale, they seem to be the regular size. I've yet to come across any minis Is this one his typical size, or mini? I can't imagine it being mini @ it's price - unless those are some pricey books

 Re: Shikaruna Kobo (fixed)
Oh wait--so the black four-armed Zag that comes with the books is standard-sized?
Those that make it their first ST four-armed sculpt?

Those that make it their first ST four-armed sculpt? You are correct sir. I think since the mini 4 armed zag's are slightly taller than the 2 armed zags, the full sized 4-arm might be an inch or two taller than the regular shikaruna zag. I'm hoping at least.

 Re: Shikaruna Kobo (fixed)
I dont understand the opened bag stuff. Why open it just to take a picture? If youre a store keep that shit closed and sell it. If I want something opened I'll go to the forums. Sorry for the rant, I just find it unnecessary if youre a store and you open the toy just to take a pic. Especially if its Shikaruna, you dont need a pic to "sell it." Peeps already know what up with Shikaruna and would snatch it up regardless of a pic. Instead, someone opens it then tries to pass it off at regular price; especially when obvious from the pics that the toys have been handled

 Re: Shikaruna Kobo (fixed)
you know...especially since you tried to sell me a king devil boogieman for 300% over retail, the day after it dropped.....I can see why having a sealed bag is so important to you.
