I hate to play the artificial scarcity card because I don't feel that fits their aggressive release schedule. But then again, how else are you going keep collectors on the hook who might be possibly suffering from purchase fatigue? Maybe they're just playing out their already set in motion business plan or maybe they just have a bad case of the dumb?
@Ozymandias13 - I think it’s in reference to Kitsune as they live to play tricks and create havoc, plus they have multiple tails. Only one person can clear things up if they wish to post here.
I think he's referring to fellow member Foxracing, who seems to have the inside scoop on a lot of 52Toys' stuff.
Wow didn’t know that Vaporwave was up again (hardly browse TB TMall for no reason) or that it’s a criteria based sale. Prolly just their new creative “marketing gimmick”? I just took it that Vapor was sold and evaporated during the one and only sale on Sept 9th.
I hate the idea of "Buy x amount to ENTER A LOTTERY for A CHANCE TO WIN a right to PURCHASE another product" tbh. If it's "You need to spend x amount to be able to buy this product", it'd be better. So no lottery.
I did not pay too much attention, so it already had a normal sale also? Maybe that means it will be cheaper for folks to get on eBay then at least, since it is coming with VIP I just did not follow it too much.
Wow, the transformation is pretty intricate. Very well designed. I was originally a little put off by the prices on these but for the amount of detail and engineering I think it's probably worth the price of admission. Show-Z still has PO open so I'm in.
I heard ya on the prices. I don't have an issue with the price of one, but I feel they'll be just like potato chips. I'm not sure if I can stop at just one and the just one I'd want is Donnie and the last thing I'd want to do is pay after market prices on the first two.
If it is financially possible for you, get all four. But don't open them yet until you get all four in-hand. Once you get them all, open donnie only, and play with it. If after playing with donnie makes you want to have a complete team, open them all. If not, sell the other three, still in sealed condition, possibly at after market price of that time.
Does anyone know anywhere besides Chinese retailers where these guys are up for pre-order? (Tmnt cubes)
They MIGHT be exclusive to China due to trademark issues, but we have not gotten confirmation yet that I know of. Mikey and Raph are back up on Show-Z and their sister site, they had been sold out for the past week. 52Toys - Show.Z Store 52Toys - Gundamit Store
