Post Rainy Day editions
I'm kind of new to SB and am in the process of refining my collecting habits anyway, so have decided to focus soley on getting the rainy day editions of them.
I have the Ghostfighter, but am being naive thinking I'll pick up the rest?
Or do I just need to be patient?

Totally agree. There is no where as much satisfaction in getting everything in one go. The chase is part of the thrill. I'll get me eyes peeled then. I was kind of worried one would be a edition of 20 of something.

the rainy day balzac is SUPER easy to get. span sells them if it's raining that day in Los Angeles, so check their site daily for about a week or two and you will be able to grab one!

If you buy it from Span, and it's not raining in LA, you have to buy a t-shirt to get the RD Balzac... just an FYI

One thing about Span of Sunset, since you're also overseas. I've emailed them to ask for quotes, and they say they'll only send via EMS, which could cost $20+ to send a single rainy day figure. I've asked if they'll consider sending via Global Priority Mail (which would cost $8-$9) but haven't heard back from them yet.

The rain thing isn't serious is it? I'm quite stupid today. Too hot and been writing a brochure for a bank.

the hardest to find will be the skullbrain. The others shouldn't cost you more than $75-100.

SOS has emailed me back saying their policy is firm. So I'd suggest getting 2 or 3 things from them at the same time to make EMS shipping costs more palatable. (It would likely cost the same to send 1 kaiju via EMS as it would to send 3 or 4.)

TT had the rainy day skullbrains sitting around for months last year at 50.
I went to grab it at sdcc, they weren't taking cards (and I had cleaned out my cash), went back the next day and it was sold.
