Another Amazing Deal

[cjk1000000]

Ok, this one's legit, but I simply cant afford it right now. In my mind this is a fabulous price for an exclusive figure that won't last long.

Sadly it's a bidding thing with no BIN, so the price is sure to raise.

That first one's not too bad except for the $61 shipping that he wants to charge. Yeesh!

 

[cjk1000000]

HOLY! I didn't even see that. But, it is coming from Tokyo!

I hope SS get there hands on a few of these to release here in the states.

the dvds in the second auction are useless because they are region 2. not that the movie was worth watching again.

$330 for a battle damaged predalien is a pretty penny. i too hope ss will get a few of these. sounds like a newsletter exclusive to me, first come basis.

Can't really call it a deal with the $61 shipping. I can recommend the other auction (tonycheung) he has very fair shipping rates. I don't see his auction going for over $200, the BD Predalien isn't that highly sought after.

 

[djklambake]

Does that shipping come with a bottle of wine and a bj? Feckin craste...

 

[Migwit]

I've got tony's listing on my 'watch' list, I for one would love to have this one. One plain, one with icing...

regular predalien is open ended edition size. battle damage had only 3000 made.

Just because something is limited to 3000 doesn't mean it is sought after. And 3000 is a huge edition size.

 

[Elder_Predator2]

Yeah, it is a huge ES. I just want one, but I don't want to pay a nut for her.

 

[darren1228]

I'd suggest you wait Elder Predator. Really don't think these are selling that well. It'll only be a matter of time before Sideshow starts selling these. The BD ED-209 was originally a Japanese exclusive as well but it eventually found its way to the States.

 

[Elder_Predator2]

Same with the Asia Ancient and the Exclusive Grid. Yeah, I'm going to wait. I might even be ale to pay for it through my points.

when the 3000 are sold through, it will be sought after, for those that want a complete collection. and a 3000 es isn't huge compared to 10,000 or more, is it?

 

[darren1228]

By your logic every product will eventually sell out and become sought after. And you assume that everyone wants a complete collection. As an example the BD ED-209 was limited to like 500 or something and it didn't sell out. In fact it was discounted to like $99 on darkshadowcollectibles.com. And no 3000 es is huge for 12" model kits. How can you throw out 10,000 when most 1/6 figures aren't produced in those numbers.

Not trying to start something and I'm by no means bashing the BD Predalien. I happen to like the design a little but I'm just stating the obvious and that $300+ on something like this is not a good deal. Not when the regular Predalien sold for about half that price.

 

[Elder_Predator2]

Yeah, most 1/6 figs are made in small increments. So there's not a much of each figure made. I feel that there were probably only 3000 Wolfs made, but that wasn't announced so it didn't make everyone want it.

 

[Helpmepleaseimnuts]

That is a nice prealien and i do want 1 for my collection but as of now $250-$300 is just to much for my liking plus looking at the uk shipping will normally be around $50 so works out alot when i can get a standerd predalien for around $180 with free shipping. lol i dont know if i should by the normal predalien or just leave it Arggg!!! decisions decisions
