    Dammit all - how do I go about getting my hands on that Gora?

    The Lugnut resemblance has lumped him into my Lugnut completionism.

    At this point, minicon collectors (like myself) should just start setting aside money reserved for the inevitable exclusives that are bound to keep popping up over the next year or so. It'll be a fun time but an expensive time.

    Thanks for the info. Damn though, they're all coming out at the same time. I was hoping they'd stagger them instead...the idea of paying $175-200 at one time to import four minicons isn't something I really wanted to do right now. Oh well.

    I'm guessing Shadow Arue will be the hardest to find since that's grouped with AM-01 only.

    So that said, are there middlemen we can talk to to try and get our hands on some of these? I want to try and get a Shadow Gora.

    It came up in the Artfire thread too, but Bodhar2000 is one dependable person in Japan, and someone I've personally gotten many campaign exclusives from already. There are some other Japanese members here as well who will help but I'm not as familiar with them.
