Thanks Duder! I am having a blast with them!

That's nice that the tower fits perfectly in the larger mechas hand ..... Great pics too! ... Makes me even more that I missed out ..... But again, thanks everyone for sharing.

you have a great collection there Coma21.

Thanks man... It took a lot of hunting to get to this point. It's nice to finally win one instead of having to hunt them.

Yup, I just never had the coin to spare on any of them on the secondary market. Glad to get them from the source, but I commend you for hunting them down.

I need to save some money and get me some big ones.

Of course the tower fits in the hands of the standard ones.. damn. I really hope we see a bucket load more of these little guys. Thanks for sharing photos everyone!

Wow, I feel super dumb, but I didn't know these were half the size!
Completely awesome set.
I bet they are fun to play with!
Great pics!

It's nice you get to be dumb today, because I was dumb yesterday! ( Sorry again LuLu!!) ... and remember...Real collectors don't play with themselves, they play with their toys...

...can't we do both? I mean we all gots one hand to hold the toy, and the other to... ya know...

What?..Type stupid shit?

Ding ding!

To those who scored.... is the header picture the same on both sides?? It's nice too!

And so it begins......

Some people just insist on ruining it for everyone.

From Du**y's to HS . . . and guys wonder why the old guard have stopped hyping shit up on an open form!

If anyone on here happens to buy it I'd be VERY interested in knowing the set #

That's what I was thinking!! They are all numbered and why number them if not to be able to track them. They are out of 35 not to many out there pretty easy to figure out who the dumb ass is.

Start a list!

Of course, this comes as no shock. All's you need to do is look at where the recent members post actively when they come here.
Isn't this hypocrisy part of the problem though? Between private PMs and people bidding from the various sources, this is what is keeping it going. I wonder what the percentage of people with HS in their collections got those figures from lottery or RFSO deals. Deep pockets (even for true collectors) equate to deeper flipper gouging and support their profits.

Yep, it was telling when 3/4 of the last Nag releases were just bought by the KR crowd to flip.

So many idiots discovering this stuff, with 0 appreciation, 0 respect, and 0 knowledge.

Trust me, making toys, you should see some of the emails I get. Holy shit... it's a brave new world. I could go on pointing fingers at the channels responsible for bringing on this renaissance age of Japanese toys. But we all know them already.

Why am I not surprised? Sad. Hirota should just release a list of winners and the corresponding numbers so whoever tries a quick flip or trade flip can immediately be found out. Shame on this assturd and the people bidding on it (or again on the same douchenugget shill bidding). Never thought I'd say this, but maybe a closed list is the way to go?

Sometimes it does seem like there is no toy justice in the world... It's really discouraging to miss out on a lottery or be unable to attend a show / con & then watch as a great toy I would have been proud to own gets flipped... it's like a slap to the face. .... I get mad, but then I also realize that MOST of the toys do go to true collectors & are appreciated / given good homes And there are a lot of great people here on SB , whose dedication, honesty & class far outshine any little wormy flippers slithering around in the dark .....

1 out of 35(so far) isn't bad. I honestly expected more. I was happy to see so many excited people here on SB as winners.

I'll bet there will be more flipped soon, unfortunately. These have only arrived one or two days ago. I just hope that Hirota has more new releases soon so the rest of us get another chance! Doing that will take the wind out of flippers' sails (sales?!).

This!
Crazy these fresh minis are even higher than classic aa minis right off the gate.
Disappointing to see but nothing will stop resellers buying and willing buyers paying in any hobbies involving scarse collectibles.
But these are not like its going to be the only version released, so i think buyer can take it a bit easy unless it is the colourway u absolutely must have.

The guy that's doing it, trade/flip [expletive deleted] for fucksake.

I just shake my head to these douchebag lame wad. So what if you make a grand out of this. How many times can you do it. There are much better ways to earn money. If you need to flip toys to make a quick buck then you're a f--king failure in life.

Buy if you're a collector. Otherwise, stay the f--k away.
