Received this package yesterday. Nice way to end the year with an awesome looking set. Back of the header is the same as the front.
Ditto, ordered and received the request next day. I ordered via the form on the pre order page, it usually confirms your order as soon as you send it.
Thanks for the encouragement Yep, I filled out the contact form again. Fingers crossed. Again, no auto reply received . . .
It should be no problem getting it second hand in a few months. Especially if it is a run equivalent to the previous green one. I think a lot of people bought it only as an exchange item or they thought it would be as priced as the lottery Mazas. They were dead wrong.
Project Zofbow is starting to turn into a color space of rot (thanks C.!). Oh yeah, still looking for colors I don't have...
Here's something I've been curious about for a while: Lifted from Ralph's awesome early report. Did the minis that came with the initial set of Fancy Toys - still blows my mind that everything seen above was part of a single release - come with subsequent individual releases of the characters? Obviously the puppy pilot was part of all of the Popys; but how about the finger puppets? Also, were the puppets hidden inside the bodies of the toys; or just bagged together with them? I found their names on a blog: クローバー、ポエム、パトラ - Clover, Poem and Patras? Does the pilot have a name? I'm also wondering if the Gorubu riff came with anything fun... ...and what his 'proper' name is. So many questions.
David, the three finger puppets were bagged together separately from the big ones. Good call on the names, never could find them myself. These fancy toys are so much fun and were a big craze when they came out. edit. I actually have a photo!
