Flat out gorgeous colorway. I agree it's second only to the Bronze. If anyone here is in Tokyo, get yer butt to OF since you might still score!!! I wish you asked them hpw large the run is....
I did. They said it`s top secret.

It depends on the yen rate, but that's more like $173. That is a great deal considering what a lot of the others have sold for.
Shit, that's a great deal reguardless!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

well... that was what i was willing to pay. i wouldn't be surprised if you're patient enough, you can get better deals on ebay (because of all the fees)... looks like most people who wanted to get it from yja got it already and they're getting pretty close to retail.

i would wait and watch ebay, one or two have been coming up way cheaper than the other with a buy it now option (they are not on there long), that is how i got mine. it is totally worth it too....the thing rules.......
