I don't think so, it's tough to tell what's going on with the Evil for instance. Is there paint on the belly? What color, white, silver? Can't tell with that contrast. What's going on with the Evil's head, sure I see SOME paint but how many colors, which colors, which shades of those colors? It's tough to tell. Yeah, you get an IDEA but I like to KNOW when I'm dropping $50 is all. I'm saying we're getting a vague idea but I think some colors are lost in the contrast and reflections and blurs. It's not totally clear.

you guys are crazy. it's clear purple vinyl.....!!!!!!!

what is there to debate?

Kirkland's fav color it seems

Its hard to beat the OG Evils, but the purple MH looks great.

From what I see there are no whites...

On Evil its blue only on the belly. From Luke's twitter post there should be one Evil which is a chase that has bright Red eyes. The rest are dull red?

On MH looks like only blue spray on body. The rest are reflections. Blue paint on purple body gives off other colors when its clear vinyl.

Maybe...

I bought a Mutant Head when they went on sale

Will go nicely with my ME-L02

Carry on.

Did you just get that Evil on the BST? I was trying to scrape the dough together for that and missed it.

Hoping some of the Evils make it online.

Mirock Chaos Next Man!!! deadly cool!

Preaching to the choir fella . . . .

Yeah, that yellow Chaos and black Mutant are great. Same with the cupcake Gatchigon.

I like these. A lot. WANT!

I want that lot too. That guy wants way too much for it though.

I think he's trying to trade up for older RxH. Super lame.

I just saw that. Makes me sad cause those Chaos are amazing.

The best Chaos EVAR!!! I really Really REALLY hope this gets released on RxH USA in some capacity. That is killer.

Meh. Call me when any of it's available in the US. This isn't fun anymore. The exchange rate's gone to shit, so trying to track any of these micro-runs down is just about as appealing as eye surgery.

How hard or easy something is to get has no factor towards how much I like and want it. The physical object and it's appeal doesn't change a bit for me, I'll never get that thought process. It is what it is, without any pretentions, and I either like it or dislike it. Hype or rarity or easy to get or a fun hunt, doesn't matter. Simple: It is a toy. I like how it looks. I want it. No appeal is added or lost whether I need to spend months/years getting one or can just pick it up like undies at a Wal-mart.

Don't get me wrong, I think most of them are fantastic. The Chaoses on clear are gorgeous, and seeing another new Gachigon is great. My problem is that 99% of what we've seen as 'new RxH' since the summer has been stuff that is released basically in secret in Japan only, barely making it into the secondary market, let alone over here. I can't even keep track of how many great new figures have been released to even try and assembly a want list or anything... there's been too many too fast for too long now. Mori's moving at lightning speed in Japan, but the new US dedicated side is just getting off the ground and still doesn't provide the level of news we were lead to believe. My attitude at this point is 'if it comes out through US RxH, awesome, I'll grab what I like. otherwise, I'm done.'

Yeah I was told he's really busy doing colabs and other things so all he's had time for are micro runs. I like hunting, and if I feel the price is OK enough for the figure in particular I'll go for it. If I think the price is way too nuts, pass. Case by case.

That Chaos lot, I want almost all of them. But his price was high because he really wanted to trade. Straight up I bought some figures off of him. He actually tossed some freebies in, things that aren't as "hyped" but great anyway. I got an EvilBat from him for free for instance, awesome!

Did u snag the evils and heads? Some really nice ones - I stared at them, but couldnt justify double retail for a new toy + high shipping.

I cant help but think if that was a known board member a torch lit mob would be winding its way throught the net towards him, but instead he's gettng praise for throwing in a figure thats not as hyped (Read: can't sell for huge mark-up). But, lke many things its a tricky line to walk - without this flipper we wouldnt have any kind of shot at some of the (IMO) coolestRxH releases ever.

Last time I said this I was jumped all over for coming across as entitled, but it didnt change my opinion - I still wish it was easier to get these releases. Some of them are so cool.

Catch 22 . . . RxH have already been down that road and been bitten. make stuff too readily available and everyone loses interest.

Lots of micro runs keep interest buzzing and sell out quicker . . . unfortunately they rarely show up on the secondary market so non locals lose out or have to pay outta the whazzooo!

Talking of which, how was the sausagefest?

I'm not really PRAISING the guy, but considering they were 1/3 more than "US retail" (90 vs. 60) I thought it was kind of cool to throw in some free figures. Also shipping wasn't off considering I bought a few and he just boxed them all together and they went EMS, same shipping as Mandarake or Celga.

I wish it was easier too, and it is sometimes, and sometimes it's not and I have to sell a few things to get things I want more. It's how it is when you don't have "hook ups" or aren't a local.
