is anded an auction for final lime Goga.
I usually see sell the Goga for around $ 1200 - 1500 on ebay or yja, 900 1000$ on sb.
this for 51000 Yen.

is this an good selling price?
ceases Anraku to interest at all?
chasing all only nag?

I think the Final Goga was a very large run, by Anraku standards. The people who would normally pay $1000+ already have this Goga, so the price should be more reasonable compared with a more rare Goga.

you really think there is no interest in anraku anymore just because a semi-large release goga sold for "only" $700+ ?

nag has nothing to do with it. like turtletooth said, new release and larger run size.

i'm sure you will see the idiotic prices again once another og version pops up

took me 4 years to find one to buy it and I paid more than $ 700. ( this lime version)
I think Anraku has a story and a poem that nag can only dream and hope for the future.
Anraku need not shocking at all costs.
it's just nice!
I am surprised to see the prices nag reached at auctions.
I fear it is a fashionable hunting.

Can I join the club?:

One of us! One of us!

Congrats Chris!

Thanks Alex, yeah I strange coincidence of money and luck (the luck part being one available) brought Mescalgon to my toy domain. He's pretty cool. Love the transparent blue vinyl, and as always fruit head kaiju rules (looking at you emupaiya ecchi).

Isn't the vinyl surprisingly hard for a clear figure?

I've never handled anything anraku but I have noticed that they always look exceptionally thick. That blue one looks like it's carved out of amber.

Yeah it is. Just from looking at pics these past few years it looked like this particular Anraku vinyl was exceptionally thick, but I was amazed at just how thick it was. Usually transparent vinyl is a bit squishy, but not this.

This photos just remind me of my Mescalgon. It got lost during shipping

this is a real tragedy ...
but do you have at least regained the money?

Hell of a pick up Chris, congrats!!

Nope... it's still in dispute. But it should be resolved soon. I think it was in April...

My Goga has traveled to Europe before it get to my house.
by mistake (exchange of parcels) it was sent to London instead of Italy.
almost a month to recover it ...
long long month !
had reached a fucking kingken flocked black instead of the Goga.
but all's well that ends well...good luck!!!

Chris - your photos have made me get mine out for a play on the desk!!

Ian you're kind of making me want the orange version also.

wouldn't mind the blue myself now - we're not helping each other to slow down eh...

I would really like to add a Goga and mini Goga to my stuff for sure.
I watch the Anraku videos over and over. So amazing.
Thanks to jcrazy I have a couple Anraku now.

sorry but red, marron and yallow aren't spreyed!
those three color are fusion of different vinyl color....open his head and looking inside.
only avraku toys are so tacnic.
final goga lime too, yallOW AND GREEN ARE PURE VINYL AND ONLY RED AND BLACK ARE SPREYED!

It's not different vinyl, it's dye. When dyed the vinyl soaks up the color. It's yellow vinyl with dye.

this works!
I was sure it was not spray.
excellent technique, I think I've seen it only with AA

PK?

Yes, indeed. I am still a bit speechless; I just keep starring at it and fondling its mass.
