they are mostly test shots and paint samples. The bidding seems a little nuts because you could easily make some of these figures with a little acetone. Others figures are amazing because they have no production counterpart.

the chase is still fun, but paying out the ass for what you just chased down is the not so fun part, clear pink head going for over 40k yen already and it's not even a 1 off... that's nuts

Dont quiit slack. I go though that same emotion from time to time.

Its so hard but when you dont get what your looking for you gotta try your hardest to get on and look out for the next. I'm feeling the loss on teh S7 set but have already focused on somethig elese.

Just save the dough you where gonna spend and hold it for the next. Eventually you will have enough dough to get atleast one rare figure.

Remember quality not quantity.

Stay in there man !

it might not be a one off but it is the only one I have ever seen for sale. Is there a production mutant head with a clear pink head and body?

Here's the deal on how these will be sold next week. There will be a hundred blind bags, each one will contain one painted slime fig. The breakdown will be 30, 30 , 25 & 15 - can't remember which fig is the rarer but my guess is it will be chaos.


maybe I'm mistaken, maybe they are 1 offs? The pink head was the Booska

Even though this stuff is insanely priced and bringing out the Daddy Warbucks, there just seems to be so much fresh exciting stuff being released at retail.

something doesn't make sense then cuz I've read there were thousands of slime sets(yes I know that's a huge # for rxh) and Data says just 30, 30, 25, 15 and that's in TOTAL of each green slime figure made?? I thought this wasn't as rare as the Halloween set. I'm so confused...

the 1000's comment was a joke. I don't think a RxH release has ever been over 75 pieces.

super7 also got 10 plus sets in. I think about 50 sets were released plus some extras.

I shoulda known, I guess I took it just as it was a large run, so the 30,30,25,15 numbers are legit? which means it is more limited than the Halloween, I guess I wasnt expecting that

3. slime green set (I am getting only 10 sets, but 10 more of the chaos, head and evil)


sure seems like there's been alot of them for sale already, 20 evils, heads, and chaos just for s7 left only a few for jp so I'm wondering how legit the run numbers Data quoted is?

Thee were a 100 bags sold at the show giving a MAX of 25 sets! (using math) from the show and actually fewer because the ratios were diff.All total the production run was definitely less than 50 sets. Actual japanese retail for 4 RxH figs would be ¥15,200.

lol It does take time to understand how RxH works.

Bottom line is this.

Regular = 30 +
Secret = 20 or lower

The regular are advertised secret welll I think you get that.

After awhile of collecting RxH you will no longer need to ask. You can tell just by looking.

S7s RxH is aditional to what gets released in Japan.

I cant figure out why all the sudden they started soaring. I guess the same can be said for SB. It was bound to happen.

Mori needs to get a shop front and employees so he can make larger runs.

It has to happen at some point !
