Just checked emails ... nothing. is it over or is there still hope? It's nightime in Japan ( 1am?), so maybe no more emails until late tonight?


I'd say it's most likely that if you haven't heard by now you didn't win. I've applied for every lotto sense May of 2011 and have only got lucky once. There's a lot of BS in the hobby so the odds are not really that great...Even on a run of what 63-70?

I hope the lotto's continue but I got a feeling that could change.

I'm holding hope. It just sucks so bad to miss out so much.

@phantomfauna .. you are probably right (sigh).

But HS did say emails for blue go out 19-20th. So maybe he just sent a few early ones , called it a night & went to bed. Still holding out hope he will send the last batch later this evening.... So I'm not ready to ( :cry: ) .. give up just yet.

Seconded. I'm starting to think I'll have better luck hitting the Powerball, but that darn 'hope' keeps setting me a up for the letdown...

Congrats to those who won this great toy in either color.

I'll enter lottos, but I just assume I lost. I never get my hopes up. Doesn't mean I'm not excited. B/c I am. I'll keep entering them. You can't lose everytime, (well you can) do it long enough you will win. And savor that feeling when you do win:)

When did you get the email? Last night / early this morning, or now? Just wondering if there's still hope.

I received an email early this morning, I was double surprised - to win and getting the notice early according to the website.

Cool to see so many people on the board winning, that increase of 70 figures over the normal 30 has really made a difference. This is without a doubt my favorite HxS figure so it's really cool to see the larger number on it. I hope the runs continue to increase in size, I think HxS could easily do runs of 100 without a loss in interest, and I'm sure it would help put an end to the flipping.

I've always thought that the low numbers of runs was usually due to the amount of time it takes to paint so many figures. I'm guessing that he was able to do a large run because they were unpainted.

Or going back and fourth between micro and large. A good mix allows fans to collect and still hunt.

By the time I hit the ten, I would've stopped counting :wink:
I'm seriously happy for you, man. That had to be one helluva rush... hope reigns supreme for a luckier 2014 with the Hirota lottos.

Painted, Unpainted, Full size, minis, battle sets, lottos, conventions, random draws, auctions, etc. etc. etc.

looks like he's doing more than enough to get his toys out to deserving fans. Hopefully I'll have some luck for the painted release which based on the very small teaser, looks fantastic!

PS. i hope that's a new poster coming out.

@Smurph726 = Yeah, I was getting a little bit OCD about my losing lottery record, so it's great to finally be able to win one! Thanks!

I kept checking my email night & day before finally giving up on this after reading Chamoco's post. Was literally seconds away from turning off my computer when the winning email popped up! Still can't believe it.

Here's hoping 2014 brings everyone on SB good toy karma!
