Something like 10 releases over a couple of weeks from obscure boutique stores, SB and Artoyz . . . brings me out in a cold sweat just thinking about it! Makes the 6 Valentines Day and White Day over 2 months seem like a walk in the park!

Thanks guys! Scary Andy wrote: Congrats! I still remember when these and all the other Parperbagmen EP variations dropped. Something like 10 releases over a couple of weeks from obscure boutique stores, SB and Artoyz . . . brings me out in a cold sweat just thinking about it! Yeah that sounds about right Andy. I believe there were around 5 different pairs between Artoyz, Adore, SB And Cure, with a couple of them only having very subtle variations. The regular SB release from this drop was actually my first purchase directly from SB... the pair of EP's, a GID Bee, and the UNBK Brain. The first step into a downward spiral of debt.

 Re: Secret Base Appreciation & Collections
There was also a GID set with plush and a solid GID set all around the same time of these guys.

 Re: Secret Base Appreciation & Collections
There's the money shot. Such a great line of figures, I think my favorite next to Ghostfighters. Yet I don't think I've ever seen the GID w/ plush. Would love to tho if anyone can post.
Mark, can you tell me which of those were from Adore vs which were from SB? I know I'm missing one pair, but I've never really been sure which were from where.
