Not for long, apparently some have even shipped already. Rich wrote: And now we wait.

I think that's just his domestic. I'm still holding out hope of a win. If anyone here know of any news please PM me.

Re: Hirota Saigansho: Gorilla-ju, Mecha Gorilla-ju, & Tyrann
Some have already shipped!?? ... maybe I mis-understood his post, but I thought emails for dark green go out the 16th + ship 18-19th and the lt. blue emails go out 19-20 & ship on 23-24?? or is that just for international winners? thanks

Re: Hirota Saigansho: Gorilla-ju, Mecha Gorilla-ju, & Tyrann
I'm not totally sure either, but I do know that Hirota ships really quickly once the lottery closes. I'm in California, and when I've been lucky enough to win I've gotten my package within one week.

Re: Hirota Saigansho: Gorilla-ju, Mecha Gorilla-ju, & Tyrann
I wonder if there was a big difference between the # of people who asked for Green or Blue versions? I get the feeling more requested the blue one, so it should be harder to win than the green? Still holding out hope, but i've had no luck with lotteries so far....

Re: Hirota Saigansho: Gorilla-ju, Mecha Gorilla-ju, & Tyrann
Yes .. i know there were 40 & 30, less of the green. What I meant was, you couldn't choose both. So if 150 people asked for the 30 green & 300 people asked for the 40 blue, wouldn't you have a better chance of getting a green one ? But if the same # of people asked for the green as well as the blue .. then it would be harder to win the green.

Re: Hirota Saigansho: Gorilla-ju, Mecha Gorilla-ju, & Tyrann
It's hard to say. I really liked both and it was a tough decision. More people I talked to seemed to be after the blue. That might be partially because people liked it more, partially because there are 10 more to go around. Either way, any and all winners should be very happy. I'm still riding the high that this is an unpainted release. I know for most of you a painted release would be more ideal and hopefully it will come soon. It will be interesting to see how he paints this big guy.

Holding on to hope for the blue. It doesn't seem like a whole lot of people got the green here.

Re: Hirota Saigansho: Gorilla-ju, Mecha Gorilla-ju, & Tyrann
I won the green. In my email I didn't specify, just said I'd love either. Though I prefer the green, as I think the darkeness adds to the powerful nature of the figure, I'm not a huge stickler for color, anything that shows surface detail well is fine with me.
Whatever colors HxS thinks works, I am happy to have.

Re: Hirota Saigansho: Gorilla-ju, Mecha Gorilla-ju, & Tyrann
Congrats Joe! they both were great, but I liked the blue a little better. Hope there are some more lucky winners here on SB! And for some reason, I like this one unpainted, but it will be interesting to see how it's painted on a future release.

Congrats to all who scored, my luck with HS is almost non existent, and this was no different HA !
Kind of a bummer to loose only to hear about people winning multiples and already setting up trades. But this is nothing new.
Onto the next

Re: Hirota Saigansho: Gorilla-ju, Mecha Gorilla-ju, & Tyrann
Bleh. It's obvious there's a manipulation of lotteries. I'm sure there's different and creative ways people use to gain more entries.
With that said, is it foolish of me to only send in one email for a lottery and still hold out hope for winning?

Re: Hirota Saigansho: Gorilla-ju, Mecha Gorilla-ju, & Tyrann
Don't worry Ted you aren't the only one who sends one email per lottery. When you hear stuff like that it does make you feel stupid, but ultimately I'll sleep better at night knowing I'm not a scumbag.
