It's weird to me the more I think about it, Super7, Astrozombies/Pushead, and Balzac are all still putting out fighters, and Cure too- but just straight up secret base fighters seem more seldom these days.

Not definitive, but I have heard:

quote:
Common problems associated with injection molding are numerous. Poorly designed, poorly made, or deteriorating molds are a typical problem. Molds are subject to abuse in the form of heat, pressure, mechanical damage, and human clumsiness. A mold can wear rapidly because it is created from cheap materials, or because the injection pressure is set higher than it can handle. Higher quality molds are made from steel, and have corrosion resistant, stainless steel surfaces.

Now, I'm sure some of those issues are applicable to sofubi molds, but injection molding is a different beast. Injection is more so for like action figures and such. The vinyl in sofubi is poured into the mold, not injected so I would think you don't get the issues related to mold being under pressure...

I LOVE the Bagman, but he is still Balzac also. "olde thyme type SB" = Bee, Brain, etc... The main reason for me saying this is because we have seen Bagmen recently. Its just the SB classics that have been M.I.A.

But, he has seen more than 15 min of fame.
(And he and the skullman are now sold out.)

I'm curious to how this order will work. Do you just send an email and eventually they'll send you an invoice, or is it lottery...?

SB sales are usually on a first come, first served basis!

That's what I thought! The phrasing on the description just kinda threw me for a loop.

They're all nice, but that hevi is the best. If they would make a Skullwing to match, I would be in Heaven...













....Or hell if I couldn't get one. :)

I sent an email at 12:30 MST on 10/30 to purchase all 3 sculpts.
I received a reply back saying 2 out of the 3 were sold out.
I would imagine if an email as sent after this time, you're out of luck..

I snagged my first captain, so excited!

Post Re: Upcoming Secret Base Releases
Anyone else waiting on their paypal invoice? I responded about a day after getting the subtotal email, sometime Saturday afternoon but well within the 48 hour timeframe. And while I'm concerned about the possibility of missing this release, I'm more concerned about getting shut out on future releases. I don't want to be labeled as a cancellation and unable to order going forward. So anyone else waiting for a Paypal invoice?

Phil said he got his last night and I got some correspondence from them as well so it sounds like they are making their way through the emails.
