MVH Ollie, Enma & Berserker

rich originally said that sams would only be sold every october. maybe that doesnt pertain to one offs since there have been some not sold in october.

 

I think the statement was that they would only be for Halloween and shows in general, so no actual releases outside October besides show one offs.

 

It's hard to keep up hope when you lose all of them. Never won a lottery from Paul Kaiju, MVH, Blobpus, I think I'm 0 for 20 or so. But I did win a COARSE lottery once for a worthless piece of crap that was damaged and incomplete. yay!

One day they say....when, when I'm 60? It's been 3 years.

 

Stay positive.

 

Thanks Will. Tryin. It's not so bad when you only kind of like the piece, but when you love it, it hurts.

 

I find threats of physical violance or dog napping work well also.

 

part of the fun. at least now MVH is a full time job. yay!

 

I've never won a lottery either. So you're not alone.

 

It is strange that there are people who never win, yet others win every lottery... conspiracy?

Probably not.


I am in the never won a lottery column as well and I mean never, not for any lottery be it print or toy.

 

Some people don't even have to enter lotteries. They just get an email saying if they want the item to pay haha

 

nice speculation... far from the truth...

congrats to everyone that won!

 

I have not won a lottery until now.

 

I would love to see where you've garnished this information from. And even if that were true, who's to say an artist can't reserve X amount for lotteries, and X amount for close friends/family?

 

agreed.

no drama please, people. moving on.. nothing to say here.

back to topic

 

Yeah sorry to start the whinefest. Hey new dudes, I'm not sure if anyone told you but the only way to make friends around here is to give me a Berserker. Pm me, I'll send you the details.

 

Damn! Those are nice!

 

I would just like to say that Rich cares a lot about getting his toys into people's hands. He does lotteries, web releases, gallery shows, comicons, rainy days, instagram contests, very few email sales, colabs, Medicom and Mandrake releases. He obsesses over the sculpts, production, paint apps, packaging and all the details, often to the point of seriously stressing himself out. If you think there is anything wrong with the way he does business, you can piss right off and I don't mind saying so. He wouldn't say that because he values his supporters and customers above all. Everyone is entitled to their opinion but try and keep it grounded in reality. This is something they do because they love it, no one is driving Maserattis because they created a sofubi toy. The toy makers that grew out of this community are pretty bad ass people who fought an uphill climb and I'm glad they do what they do. Just my boozy two cents.

Also... DAMN Bighead, sweet fucking lineup

 

AMEN BROTHER

 

second all of the above. rich goes above and beyond on every level and with every detail.

@Daimyo thanks

 

not trying to rub it in or anything, but I have 9 ollies and only two of them are from lotto,
and I didn't pay more than retail for any of them.
persistence is key.

I just try not to be bummed when I lose lottos and remember theres plenty of toys in the world and other chances later to get the ones you miss.

 

Brent just dominated this entire thread.

He's also right persistence is key.

 

I've haven't won a toy lottery yet, but I still count myself lucky, either having some luck at shows, or with a fast click on the online sales. It's pretty awesome that we have so many ways to collect these great toys, and that the artists keep upping their game.

 

@BHK: those two looks awesome!! show us more man, or should I post pics of your IG here for all of us to enjoy? .

 

@ictoys lol I am working on it
