Can't say I blame him very much. I am super stoked. This is like Christmas.  Well I guess I will just quit work so I can be ready for SB Friday sales ... Not really snoozing more like sweating my ass off working. O well maybe someone will hook me up somehow

seriously im almost scared to buy certain things because the real pushead collectors are so passionate. in a sense i feel undeserving of pushead toys because im so new to the japan vinyl toys, and i consider myself a real collector. to me that means not buying certain things so the people who have a collection based on the toy will get one. unfortunately thats not the case but thats how i feel. i only have the pushead toys because of the prices. the red grog was a mass run size and they were everywhere online at cost. the fc pirate came with no bag or header card and was a good price. the damedron was 55 but it looks great with black vinyl and red toned paint drips. the wing is super damaged as i said elsewhere. i really do feel bad for the pushead collectors who wanted this toy and wont end up with one.

 Re: a little slice of NYCC in Harajuku!!
Thanks for the great pics Mark. The colors are so much brighter than the pics on the Secretbase site. I really like the random marbling on these, it makes for some nice surprises. Some parts are very subtle, where others are a nice bold contrast. I can't wait to see some of the other actual colors and details.

 Re: a little slice of NYCC in Harajuku!!
Sounds like a good handful of us got them on the board, congrats to everyone who did. I'd love to see pics of what everyone scored when you all get them.

So it's really just 1/3ish (not just amount of parts but size) of the whole? So now you're getting 2 2/3 figures combined so I can see the price jump overall.

I'm good at toy math. I'm not good at any other kind of math.

 Re: a little slice of NYCC in Harajuku!!
OK I suck at toy math. It's like two 2/3's figures is what I'm trying to say. So yeah, 1 1/3 total would be correct. I didn't mean "2 2/3" I meant (2/3) x 2. I just didn't say it very well.

 Re: a little slice of NYCC in Harajuku!!
I had no idea you were a female. Not for anything, just saying.
It's true that Pus stuff is much easier to get these days. i've been tempted to pick stuff up just because they were so cheap or I felt sorry for them sitting there. A couple years ago, that blood pirate, Its a Girl or that GID skullwing would have vanished before you click on the sales thread. Kids today... don't know what's good for them.

 Re: a little slice of NYCC in Harajuku!!
Just got mine today. SB shipped so quick. The color is amazing on these, but so hard to capture. Here's a few shots, more and slightly bigger on my flickr. I really like how the faces on mine turned out with pink/purple eyes and 1 with pink across the nose/teeth and the other almost mirroring it with grey. I'd really like to see pictures of all of them so please post when you get yours.
