Special edition or no, those don't come cheap. Especially unopened.

I wonder if someone here got it? Not that I'll ever own any Anraku (impossible to find and super expensive) but this set/characters are my favorite. Dako right?

I saw this the SECOND it went up, hit "in cart" and "check out" and ALL that, must have had fumbly and slow fingers due to the near shock and got beat by someone. GAH! So CLOSE! I was actually hoping Ed got it, but it doesn't seem that way. Congrats to whoever did, unless they're gonna go flip it or trade-flip, than they can eat shit.

The Jyarinco Missile Gorilla was a steal as well. Haven't seen one of those sell, well, ever.

oh, this program would be smart enough to know the difference

it could recognize images too so the words could be entirely incorrect

Urgh, Anraku is so expensive, I love it but there is no way I can afford prices like those, it's ethier bemons or anraku and I choose.... Bemons.

you're talking about toys that in many cases are limited to runs of 10 or 20. they're going to be expensive because the supply is so low and the demand is very high.

competition for older anraku is fierce. the fact that this set sold for just over $230 makes me wish i had ESP and knew they would be posted. I know collectors who would probably pay five times that to get those MIB.

bemons and anraku are both similar price-wise. I don't see the logic in your determination of choosing the bemon side of things, but to each their own.

Still may not have mattered, like I said I saw it go up the very SECOND it was posted, and by the time I got to "CONFIRM ORDER" it was long gone, and I wasn't dablling around either. A number of folks check that site right when everything hits, and a few probably went for that while it was still for sale. WENT-FAST!

I wish a new set of these particular minis would be released in new colors. Clear blue?

yeah it's one of those things you need to luck out on when it comes to mandarake.

i have seen one of those minis around before. once, like a year and a half ago. they just don't show up often.
for the newer folks, if you decide to choose anraku to collect, be prepared to be patient.

and what was with the mini goga auction last week? that little guy went CHEAP!
