Rune Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 Sorry guys I went to go check at the kinokuniya in san jose but they said they were sold out and the same for the one in san francisco. They said the price was $26.85 pretty pricey for the rei figure.I'll keep a look out for them From Rich Thanks for checking for us! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gunbuster Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 Where can you find the bootleg version besides Evil-bay? By the way Valk009, you have a pic of the same box in your comparison. It took me a while to notice the difference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeo-mare Posted January 4, 2005 Author Share Posted January 4, 2005 yea the pic he has is the same, but if you compare the one he has to the one i posted at the begining you will notice the different logo on the top and the lack of the trademark company name. check ebay sometimes they come up i just missed a authentic one on ebay for $27.00.

Rune Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 Thanks for checking...there was one on ebay yesterday but it ended up going to over 50 after shipping. Yeah I was watching that one as well and figured that 50.00 plus shipping is kind of NUTS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valk009 Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 Some of my local shops still carry them (don't worry, they are the official Japanese release versions) but after postage and PayPal fees, the price will end up more or less the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zeo-mare Posted January 6, 2005 Author Share Posted January 6, 2005 wow there alittle to much at that store in Britan, i can only imagine shipping to the usa (that is if they even have it), yea EXO i wish i would have known about these before i would have grabbed a few of them when i had a chance, and sold all but one of them off and made a small fortune. chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EXO Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 I don't know about short time investments on toys. I would have been out of money for a while and then sell it for a small profit. It's really not worth it for me, it'd have to be some damn good profit for me to do that... I'll leave it to the retailers and the people that do that sort of service.

MacrossFani Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 Well I do have extra from Taiwan and Japanese version I bought at book store. So is quite safe. I maybe able to try at Asia country who is with me? Maybe ship in bulk is cheaper. But of course you want to get it cheap is like quite difficult. Especially the Asuka is coming out.

zeo-mare Posted January 7, 2005 Author Share Posted January 7, 2005 sounds that way some people seem to have preorders for like $60.00 i am not sure if it will go down any time soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacrossFani Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 (edited) Likely is will. Asuka more difficult to get as well. Cos you need to mail order is like only limited to Certain population. Only Japanese version no taiwan news yet. Anyway, the picture with yellow circle is not fake item is just that is from Taiwan and is orginal and I bought Taiwan version on Kinokuniya Book Store too.

zeo-mare Posted January 7, 2005 Author Share Posted January 7, 2005 yes that is also what i heard now about the suppossed fake is that it is just a Taiwon version, and is the sam quality just slightly different packageing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baldrick Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 yeah I just checked with the store they said the whole west cost area doesn't have it in which sucks, but the lady didn't want to check for me if there was any in the east coast or other places. That bitch Oh well I check out the web site but can't read japanese. From rich I was in contact with the San Jose and San Francisco stores too. They said the same thing to me about it being out of stock everwhere, but they were wrong. The Seattle store had them in stock as of Saturday the 8th. Check out this other thread, I posted their contact info. http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?...pic=12608&st=80 Good luck to those who are still hunting!

Sephiroth Posted January 20, 2005 Share Posted January 20, 2005 If you're hard up for the Rei figure: This seller on eBay appears to have some available, but they're on the expensive side ($49.99 BIN) and are based out of Canada: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...ssPageName=WD1V Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
