    When I got this in hand I thought it was odd how only the front and back were painted, and not the sides. Had to turn off the lights to work out why. Just having a glow outline is pretty ingenious.

    Well, it just came out and that as the only one on YJA so thats why it sold so high. Just give it some time.

    No one knows how large the run is, if S7 ill be getting them etc .....

    With all this buying frenzy over each and every release we are only hurting ourselves.

    These days it doesn't seem to matter if they are or they aren't . . . . it's all down to dumb luck if you even get a look in!

    I agree, it is total luck if you happen to be checking the S7 store in order to get the minis at retail.
    Otherwise it's auctions, flippers or trading good stuff to get these. btw, the mini blue mutant head on yja this morning sold for 10,500 yen which is $100.93 usd...imo that was a good price compared to what these have been bringing in.

    running a store requires a hectic release schedule, which means lots & lots more minis in the coming months. the flippers won't be able to maintain the crazy prices with that happening.

    which leads to flippers lowering their prices in order to afford new releases. if they don't new releases will be a lot easier to obtain. its all just a waiting game. i have yet to pull the trigger on an expensive mini. i don't plan to unless its a must have. even then i wouldn't go that high. with that said i probably won't get a mini for another 3 months or so. depending on my luck.

    OK, my RxH has been packed away for a bit, but last night I opened up this GID Chaos to enjoy for a while. Man...this is IMO the BEST GID chaos figure Mori has ever done--and one of the best GID or not. it's so awesome lights on/off. I got him charged up a bit and hit the lights...you can see the details of the sculpt as well as the outline. It's...wow...I was really impressed with this one. the metallic paint is very beautiful too.

    so now my favorite chaos figs (in no special order):

    Rainbow, this GID, fruity pebble, and fungus. I couldn't stop looking at these once in-hand.
