Somebody told me they have a page for customers in China, where they listed a standard and a deluxe version.
Is there any description or pictures showing what the difference between the versions are?
I'm assuming the version that was offered to us is the deluxe as it comes with the 2 outfits and 2 headsculpts?
Yeah just the extra battle damaged K
I found the taobao page if anyone wants a link.
You can't order directly from taobao unless you're in china, but you can use an agent (for a fee) like bhiner or superbuy to purchase from them and ship outside of china. Once they receive the item they will take photos and send to you, and then you can send the rest of the money and they will ship to you. You can only get a refund if the seller offers one tho from what their website says.
The taobao price ~150 for regular and ~260 for deluxe
Don’t expect that lol. I ordered something in stock, they liked my message and I didn’t hear anything for a week. I had to message them asking for an update and only then did they ship the product..
Multiple people manage that account so I’d recommend asking for updates every now and then and once the product releases ask them about your order.
Would you be able to send the link, please? I’d like to go for the regular. I don’t need the BD deluxe option. And if I end up losing this money, I’d rather it be less as possible lol.
Thank you.

You should be able to paste this into an agent's website and see the full listing
Well, it’s totally on me, but I missed out. I just never felt 100% sold on por.toys enough to gamble on it. I really hope they come through for those who secured one however, and I’ll live vicariously through y’all.
I’m pulling for Justina’s, and if that never happens, looks like having an Officer K figure will keep eluding me.

Man, you really let this slip?
I hope Justina's comes through as well, but the value here was too good to pass. At worst, you'll have a good starting base, and parts to salvage for a final build.
I don't know how long it will take before we'll see a neatly wrapped package like this again. Most companies are only interested in the usual schlock. Blade Runner is niche, and mostly attracts artists within the custom scene (and it's typically very expensive). I know por's hardly reliable and there's risk involved, but I don't think they're scammers, and given their background, they're also not your average third party studio.
If there's still a chance, I'd advise you to give it a second thought. I was rooting for you to grab this

They fixed the name on the badge. I have no idea if this is accurate (not a big deal for me) but it's nice to see they're committed to making improvements.

I'm a pretty massive Blade Runner fan, to the point where my wife and I go as K and Joi to conventions, so I'm pretty bummed I missed this. I think it looks incredible. But at the same time I'm kind of glad because giving $300+ flat out to someone via poorly translated Instagram messages is a massive gamble that you'll actually get something a year from now.
Of course when it releases and comes out amazing I'll definitely be envious, but for now it's best if logic wins the day.

Hopefully the Por Toys K does well and inspires other companies to pick this line up. I feel like Mars toys would make great figures from this movie.
Por.toys isn’t the type to scam you.
They do have communication issues though,
but that’s because multiple people run the account and English isn’t their preferred language, requiring you to sometimes keep up with your own order and have difficulty understanding them.
I personally always try to keep the conversation with them short and straight to the point knowing how bad they are with English, as to not confuse them about what it is you’re inquiring about.
What I do is DM them a photo of their product I want, ask price, estimate availability and shipping quote. Send payment, then send screenshot of payment for confirmation, then I receive tracking a day or two later if the product is in stock.
Not everyone’s experience has gone this way, so it’s safe to say yours may not either, but I’ve not heard of anyone being outright scammed.

I was tempted by the boots but for $100 plus probably $50 in shipping it didn't seem worth it. Por should hook up with a reputable store like kit for their full figures. Doesn't seem worth sending them $300 and hoping all goes well in 12 months.
