Luckilly Gorilla-Ji doesnt do much for me...but this mecha gorilla version really resonates with me. Now I just need to figure out how to get one......

LOOOOOOOLOLOLOLOLOLOL DAMN! I totally should have jumped on MWorld's offer just to flip it! :lol:

I am surprised, I know "first" usually pulls in a bit more but 1- Gorilla Ju's never go that high (that I've seen) and 2- We know there will be more. It's not like this is some "on the out" failing line of figures. Dude's active pounding these things out.

Whatever though, I thought it'd go $700-$800 HIGHEST but not nearly double, yeesh! But it's part of my love of this crap, even if it is out of control, it's always surprising.

It's an awesome toy and I'd LOVE to have one...for $80.

Holy, you wouldn't think it was an economic downturn with the way some of these auctions are ending.

i'd love to see a graph or analysis of the buyers the spend more than $1,000 on any single toy and the toys they purchase (non-vintage).

WHAT!!!??? :shock: No way!! I saw the Green Goju go for almost 90k I thought that was way too much!

Yup, and that's why I'll never own one. I think $80 is pretty extravagant for such a toy.

C'mon it's 2011. These aren't called 'toys' anymore. They are now called "pieces" apparently. :lol:

Gorilla-Ju. Order submissions from July 9-10, 2011. Price 10,000 yen. Will become a lottery if the number of submission exceeds the number produced.

I prefer the first version. I almost don't like this one. Don't mind for that brown tone nor the blue highlights.

I think my brown vinyl threshold had come to it's limit for the time being. (see the buta thread, if you what I mean)

There is room for another big head t-rex in my book. Something that rips a Goga to pieces. Just saying, I am a dreamer...

By the way... Did any of my fellow brainers score one of the Mecha Gorilla-Ju's yet?? I could use some desent pictures^^
