I wonder if they'll have something like the Invisible Kaiju Pack this year.
I thought that was pretty cool with all the different companies.



Actually, I thought that the timing of the Inivisible Kaiju Pack's release was horrible......right alongside the Gargamel Lucky Bag release. It was extreme wallet drain. Two releases that were pretty expensive, and did not satisfy.

Well, I liked it because the Gargamel LB was too much for me at the time.
I was really satisfied with the Invisible Kaiju Set.
Some people like Minis, I know I do.

agreed.

better to do the different levels of LBs...small, medium and large...and make the large one like 2006 where you would get one of every LB production piece in one bag.

Post Re: Lucky Bag Wishes for the New Year
i would like to see
- a standard unpainted clear standing hedo with bloody guts (granted, smog monsters probably don't have guts, but i've never really been one strapped to realism).
- a standard zag made of that milky slime green vinyl (the head of the undead bonus figure chomp for reference, if you don't know what i mean) painted with purple and white.
- clear pink gargadeath, unpainted or painted.
- christmas colors smogun, possibly made with glitter clear vinyl and painted with green, red, and white.

and i second the idea of a clear gameppa with guts, and, of course, ERASERS!!!

as far as i remember i don't think any artist designed toys have appeared in any of the lucky bags: so i don't think we will see a globby,ojo,dragamel,tokoji etc. in the bag.

i d be happy with the bag of standard thrashman and dokuroman and microman

Well..who knows what the conversion rate will be in the end ..but still looks promising.

And I saw these on kirkland's blog....I just thought I'd geek out for a second. These are so rad.

If it's $250 it's more than right, you'd be getting some figures for LESS than US retail once broken up! Standard Zags are $100 US retail alone, $45 for the Deathra and new guy I'm guessing, Gacha around $50-$60ish, already getting free figures after that point. I think it might be more here in the US.

I wanted a full sized Bakos, but the Gacha is a cool addition. Is that a pocket Globby up front?

I think it would be cool to see all the mini Zokki Kaiju in a matching colorway.

I think that was the exact same price as last years. That's the price you'll get it for if you get it direct from Gargamel. You have to consider shipping all of them from Japan, conversion rates (especially the current conversion of Yen to Dollar) and of course the distro shops will mark them up a bit so to actually make money and be able to pay rent/employees etc.

I can see this set easily being around the same price point as the last.

20,000 yen plus S7 and/or a distro's cut so probably $300?

I'm just going to assume 400 unless otherwise told.
