 Re: Possible Lucky Bag *SPOILER*
Mine finally showed up and I am very happy. Got the glow skullpirate, which is what I wanted most. That bee is damn huge, had no idea they are that big.

andy wrote: Shit I'm not whining. I didn't buy these since I figured they'd be weak. But yeah if you know what you're getting into, buy, and then moan, then that's even weaker. Still, at the end of the day it's our money. Nothing wrong with saying that you like or don't like something, and there's always room on the bench for more than just cheerleaders. ...and that's the way to make purchases. You take a guess based on what the company sells. If you only buy 10% of what they carry, why take your chances on a lucky bag? BTW...lucky bags were started by dept. stores  . They would put in a bunch of unwanted merch and sell them for dirt cheap just to get rid of them and make space on shelves. It went against another tradition, which is not only a Japanese tradition, of starting the new year with something new. So lucky bags started having new or expensive, but were only in small amounts...hence the name lucky bag. I also agree with andy about the proto thing. It's not a proto if you make 20 of them.

 Re: Possible Lucky Bag *SPOILER*
sell your Mc Supersize on the KR boards or throw them up on the bay  . i gotta say, out of all the stuff i'd seen so far, the Mc Supersize is probably the only one that i would get rid of. i'm sure Ron is a nice guy but i haven't really seen anything of his that i like.

 Re: Possible Lucky Bag *SPOILER*
I just listed mine on KR. I agree Bert, I don't find any of his figures appealing at all.

My box arrived resealed with the green "US Customs" packing tape stating that US Customs voilated it with rubber gloves... Maybe they took my clear orange RI As I mentioned before, I do not regret getting a SB Lucky Bag, even though I didn't get the things that I was hoping for. Glad I got the chance to get one at all. Them's the breaks...better luck next year.

 Re: Possible Lucky Bag *SPOILER*
With my luck, I'll get a customs agent who is cozy with ebay.
Mine is still in customs...maybe Hiddy sent me a vile of his blood.

I was talking to the mailman and he says that Customs often open up packages if you order too often from a specific international region. Given that I had 3 orders for Secret Base, 1 order from KT and another 3 orders from Shocker in the month of December alone, I guess I got flagged.
