the flyer says: "Lots of surprises, exclusive toys, new releases, t-shirts, and signings" so basically everything was there except the "Lots of surprises"?
Don't get me wrong, I am pumped there were cool toys there today....but it was like....walk in, go to counter ask for toys, buy toys...browse a bit......bye....see french fry place at bottom of stairs. It was cool, but yes, I thought there was gonna be some kinda...secret/surprise.....maybe handpaint stuff.....but nada....and when I asked....they looked at me like I was joking or somethin'..... The flyer thingie was waaaay off......happy to buy toys nonetheless.....and REALLY REALLY happy to have some East Coast love for toy releases.
There should be some hitting the web tomorrow. I was there late cause of work so I missed the whole RFSO crew. Oh well, maybe next time. That's some heavy hitters rollin real deep.
Only lev knows my "handle name" on the board...and, like I said i don't work for TT so I was surprised about Hiddy not being there either...he had to cancel last minute...I also have been moving my apartment after being evicted...so I was a no-show as well... As far as not knowing who I was - I guess i should stop using a "Board" name..and use my real name of Lorne...this way if you ask for me at least people will know who you're talking about..using "Lalon" is an old habit from the old board and from my college years (which are loooong gone)...so if you ever need to talk to me, ask for Lorne...sorry for any confusion. They know me by a lot of nicknames, but not the one you guys may have asked for... Either way, I felt like there was a lot of decent stuff fo sale, and all of Balzac ws there..TT has had three pretty amazing releases in the last few weeks, and sinc we rarely get any lovin' on the EC...I was pretty hapy about that... anyway, I am actually reall bummed I wasn't there...so kudos to those who made it...i have never met the Balzac guys before, prob. pretty interesting, no? best, Lorne
They had all 3 color skullman and bats w blood drip, there was also one in the case w/o blooddrip, but I forgot to ask what it was, maybe it was the "deep" skullman cuz it had no bag n I thought maybe it was translucent.... Ahh idk! Anyway yeah those and they also had the demented skullbats, ifor sure, didn't see the demented skullmen but they may have been there. Otherwise it was just the random stuff they have for sale normally at the shop
They're up on the TT Site now: GID Set: http://www.toytokyo.com/shopping/index. ... ct_id/8576 Obake: http://www.toytokyo.com/shopping/index. ... ct_id/8577
went through for me...was hoping they would have had some of the other balzac toys up by now too, but I didn't want to hesitate on this
Yeah, there system is kinda sketchy, I had to try 3 time befor my order went through, i hope i didnt order it 3 times!
Odd, I didn't have any problems. Well I hope everyone who wanted one got one. I was kinda tempted to order two, but at $110...well
It's so weird. But it follows my luck with computers and crunch time. I called the warehouse and got it all take care of. Hopefully that was the right number to call.
i'm psyched, i was able to order one of the new obakes and the halloween set, and totally didn't expect i'd be able to! i can't wait to get these in the mail! and it seems that toy tokyo finally was able to get their shipping fixed over the internet and i don't have to get strange phone calls from them anymore!
the best thing to do if you get that error message is to call them. its just some wierd problem with their computer. its happened to my cousin and he called them and got it all sorted out
