    @fett42 I need clarification if you can assist. Is the micro bike a three eyed bike?

    WHAAAAAAAT?! Seriously, there's a mecha Zag too? I must see pics for proof on all of these standards and I'm NOT going to IG to do it. I will be a lazy sod and wait until they show up here. FTW!

    It's on the third page of this thread.

    Were there less bags this year? Seemed to sell out quickly. I just want a chibi miborah.

    I'm not sure if there were less, or we're just kind of cut off from other people who bought them. A lot of people don't come around here as regularly as they used to. There might also be many bag photos from "non-Top" users on Instagram that we'll never see. The price certainly helped with sales, they're much more accessible.

    Does every bag come with a micro? I only received a tetran, monkey dude, and chibi zag. That's unfortunate.
    It's on me since I keep trying, so I shouldn't complain, but I will admit that I've never once been happy with my lucky bag purchase.

    That's really odd, I'm pretty sure it was supposed to come with 2 micros. And what do you mean by monkey dude, you mean the zodiac sculpt? This year is dragons.

    If this one doesn't do it for me--i'm just sticking to the custom work they share.

    Completely forgot that guy is in this year's bag! Either way I'm pretty sure there was supposed to be a micro in there. :(

    That's crazy, how many bags have you bought over the years? I've only done the last 2 years and waiting on my current bag to land but I've enjoyed them so far. Always watched from the sidelines with jealousy seeing everyone have fun. Maybe I need to get deeper into it before disappointment sets in?

    woah went away from SB for about a week and all these bags are sold out? Anyone else stocking them this year? Looks like S7, MPH, and Rotofugi are all gone!

    not me furiously hitting refresh on mandarake for extras haha

    About five maybe? I didn't do the last two years because I tend to not like the large unpainted figure.

    Every time I open the bag I think two things.
    "I should have just bought my most wanted toy from skullbrain" (this year it was the zag)
    "I should stick to purchasing from the custom shows when I am able"

    Actually it would be nice if gargamel would have more releases in the style of those angel Abby runs from a few years ago. I'd be all in on drops like those.

    I am most definitely a lucky bag cherry picker. I'm particular about colors, and generally only try to get one of a sculpt (certain badass toys are exceptions). There's something I like every year.

    I love the surprise every year so I always get at least one. I almost always sell everything but my standards and end up buying what I want that I didn't get. I love the thrill of opening my bag(s), that alone is worth it to me.

    I’m hoping for any Miborah, but if I’m not lucky I could sure use a 2-eye Tetran or that Zag.

    For anyone that has the little Mibora- is the Mibora head the normal head or a modified head (like the Zag)?

    I believe it is the normal head.

    Opened my bag tonight! It arrived earlier but I was saving it for my video chat.

    - Standard was Tokyo One-Eyed Tetran
    - Guts was Zagoran
    - Small was Rokuron
    - Micro is the visor dude

    It was fun, but I think I’ll be trading around!
    I’ll post a photo tomorrow.
