Keep your fingers crossed that the chrome plating doesn't turn out like the Space Barbarians.

Its the silver week in japan now, so i guess thats a silver week special. the last one was golden week special.

At JPY14490 a pop and a seemingly large run, will wait to catch it under retail after a few months.

Too true though. So many buyers putting things back on the market a month or weeks later in the past year, hard for anything to "hold value." Easy with patience now to pick up things for a steal.

I don't know, the whole "under retail" thing really irks me. anyway...

I'd be surprised if we see alot of this guy after market, look at the NYCC one, there's only been one or 2 openly sold since it's release (one only now).
No one seems too fussed by this guy, which means the people who get him aren't gonna be those of us with an itchy (sometimes regrettable) trigger finger, but rather people who want it...
Just thinking out loud... carry on.

I was speaking generally as the trends in bst. As for the inks more and more seem to sit in bst.
I've never gotten their appeal, way too "urban."

I prefer to get things under retail.
lol

For me the RI buzz died about 12 months back . . . the only guys that still seem to be picking these up now are the completists that gotta grab 'em all so I can't see many of 'em doing the rounds in the aftermarket.

Before-, During- or Aftermarket aside, I am forever afraid of SB plated vinyl. The plating on a fight figure I have just gets worse over time.

What's the price? SB can't seem to load on my computer at work.

Personally this is a pass. I'm too scared this is going to be a repeat of the Silver All Starz figures.

With the conversion rate, paypal conversion fee & EMS, this thing must be about $170.

thats a beauty, but that price is the black eye. i would bet the plating on this is pretty damn good if its anything like the nycc version. that thing is immaculate.
