I'm thinking this is tied to the "no shipping in your area" issues with the webstore. But I'm just guessing. Otherwise it's a crime that these are still around.
Im not surprised at all, I would expect alot of them, the Halloween set from last year is still around. This is an easy unpainted figure, im sure there's plenty.
Wow! I'm surprised too! After being rebuked by their "shipping" I walked away - I only really want the 'Brain. But seeing that they're still there I figured I'd try again - still can't get through the shipping. Oh well, I still only really want the 'Brain so I'm not gonna pick up the phone so I can pay $120 for an unpainted 'Brain. Still a very cool set and if my order had been processed I wouldn't have been upset at all.
Ugh, I hate knowing it's still available because the temptation is there. Just can't do it right now.
. . . and the 'Night' Bee and OG Frankenghost . . . anyone got spare a GID Ghostfighter? . . . . now THAT would be worthwhile taking a picture of!
I think I'll go for the Brain, and mix&match some of my old figs (like putting the glow sheet on last year's S7 Obake). Can't drop $300+ at this time, that's for sure . . .
I just got home with my set. I have rebuilt it about 5 times, dropped old guys under the heat and swapped bags, brains, head and pumkins all night long. This is far more fun than it oughta be. And the new Obake is WAY! cooler in person, I love him! Right! back to my toys!
The only Trick or Treating the Japanese do here is on the American Navy Base. The Japanese shops sell Halloween items, but no Trick or Treating going on.
Anyone take off the sheet on the new Obake? The Balzac guys told me that under it is the Balzac skull head. I think Mark said he "peeked" under it and it wasn't... but can anyone confirm? Maybe they were just wrong.. they said the one at TT was going to be clear - not the GID, but they were wrong about that. Just wondering if I should go for one of these guys or not.
