Hey freaks for those who were still interested in the Japanese version of Baby Doll, BBTS will be adding to their website. See the correspondence from this morning. Good Luck.

"Morning! We do have the Japanese version and I have added it to your BBTS account but I can't believe the price! It is $449.99. It has been added to our website but not published yet - should be by this evening. We are only getting 12 of them."

What is a Japan Edition????? It looks exactly the same to me.....

 

[sarakawa]

I dont understand what the difference is either?

 

[Spawn_de]

Difference is the weapon in her left hand.

Damn nice statue.

 

[sarakawa]

are we sure the gun and sword holder arent interchangeable? in the regular, the gun is in her holster with the scabbard in her hand. in the japanese version, the scabbard is on the base, with the gun in her hand. you're telling me that small change is why the japanese version is 2x as much?

I gots me one!

For me this is...

Thanks, G! You Da Man!

Edit: Yes I know... I caved in. So what!

$449 for the Japanese Edition? ____ that. I'll just stroll around eBay after release for a standard version.

 

[Vaako]

ordered one from HLJ , i just hope that my piece is 100% guaranteed

 

[Darth Snoopy]

I don't think you'll have any problems from HLJ, Vaako.

I think it will be hard to get in the US though.

Gentle Giant just found a loophole to get more cash out of this sculpt. Everyone stocking up on Baby Dolls because of the low ES got the shaft.

This is what some of us were mentioning when it came to this company.

 

[Darth Snoopy]

Out of curiosity...who are you referring to when you say Everyone stocking up on baby Dolls because of the low ES got the shaft.

Do you mean retailers? If yes then yeah they got the shaft alright.

 

[SolidLiquidFox]

Do you mean retailers? If yes then yeah they got the shaft alright.

Yup retailers mostly.

 

[Darth Snoopy]

Yup retailers mostly.

I'm getting a taste of what you spoke about earlier in the thread about GG and their practices.

This may end up being the first and last time I buy a GG statue or bust.

 

[Sweet Rabbit]

does HLJ charge right away for preorder items?

no

wait a minute

BBTS is saying they are getting 12 out of the total 100 that are coming over here?

I'm sure that the 100 being shipped to the US were divided and allocated to several different retailers.

This will be my first and last purchase from GG. To simply double the the production number with out reason (other than money) makes no sense and futher ruining relations with thier customers. I'M thinking I PO'd an exclusive firguer with a count of 500 only to find out GG can easily make as many more as they like to make more money on this figure. Will GG issue some sort on comment? No. Will they offer some sort of discount to people that PO'd a figure with a set count of 500? No. At least I know I woun't be dealing with them ever again.They lost one customer after just one purchase.
