Wow that custom goku is awesome, they even took the blue tie off of Krillin to complete the look. Really cool looking.
The thing with SDCC is that the interviewed guy, I constantly forget his name, clearly, explicitly stated that they've NEVER released ANY form of exclusive in ANY way. And EVERYTHING except manga Goku, piccolo and gohan is an exclusive in Japan. We all know they see their domestic market as the main deal. Bluefin distributes these normally in the western world, but to the producers, Tamashii, everything's an exclusive.
So whatever they might do, if the sdcc exclusive is a figure it WILL break tradition for them. And I just highly have my doubts whether they're prepared break japanese market tradition, for the american market. I really think they're gonna have issues explaining that in Japan. And for some reason I see them copping out with an option package or something alike.
Either way, this sdcc will change the game. Whether we got nothing, a figure or a package, regardless of what it is, it's going to be a first. That in and of itself is kinda neat, it's gonna be revealing their game plan to some degree no matter what they do.
That's a big negatory. A few years after the line has concluded these figures will eventually bottom out and be worth a whole lot less than they are now. Also, I happen to agree with those few collectors. It is very poor form to "extend" a limited run beyond its original production. It effectively devalues its exclusivity and desirability, especially if it is a low production item.
I literally just repeated that the three manga coloured releases (not the new goku, oddly enough) are normal releases, not web exclusives.
But...what what WHAT!? Trunks got a second production run!?
