Bought this today at the Frank and Sons Collectible Show in Pomona, CA. The dealers were nice enough to drive all the way to the San Diego Comic Con Thursday and bring it back to us today . If you are in that area I'd def recommend picking one up, cause online this item is going uuuuuup.

(off-topic: can anyone tell me why I can't post anything in [img] format?)

[GreenAiden555]

cause online this item is going uuuuuup.

For now. While supplies are still limited and most major vendors that won't sell it for insane prices haven't post them yet, and those not willing to wait are paying said insane prices.

I know this for a fact.


Also, the price on eBay has gone down by about $50 since Wednesday.

I'd have to disagree, I got mine for 75.00 (I know at comic con they were 60, but hey I didn't have to drive down there from LA, nor did I need to buy a comic con ticket, get a hotel room, etc). On Amazon its 109.00, and other vendors at Franks were selling them for 90.00. Supplies will always be limited with this item because it's a comic con 2012 exclusive, the vendors at Franks said that they were almost gone on the first day. If you found that price on eBay (plus s+h) then more power to you buddy, if I were you I'd get it.

From G Fest !

How about Hedorah?

You really don't know Tamashii/Bluefin, do you?


They will be available later for cheaper. I know of two vendors contacting Bluefin after SDCC to see if they can get cases of this guy. Also, Bluefin never reported they were running low on Godzilla. The Gundam and Pink Beargguy they sold out of once or twice, and they almost ran out of Gohan... Never mentioned Godzilla once.

See this guy? SDCC exclusive last year. Barely over MSRP on him. Exclusive =/= expensive.

Also, only one or two people have it up on Amazon right now.

I'll post pics later but until then......

2 dealers have/had the SDCC exclusives at G Fest. I think one was charging $95 and he sold out. Another has them for $100 and she has some left.

If your vendors are 'seeing' if they can get cases then you're not 100% sure if your vendors can get them? And the Mega Man, look how many Mega Man they have, I bet if there were two left it would be a different story when it comes to exclusive = expensive. C'mon now that's basic business, there is no demand for Mega Man. And didn't you say eBay had Godzilla for 50? You gotta check that again. Let me apologise, I'm not trying to say you're wrong, if there is a huge supply left then you would be completely right and exclusive wouldn't equal expensive. However, for the moment let's agree to disagree.

I'm not getting into his with you.


Not every vendor has the SDCC Godzilla yet. As time goes by, these will be popping up for cheaper than eBay prices. Give it a month or two. I know people that bought the SDCC Megaman for $120 because of the mentality "Z0M6 IS EXSULCIVE GOT BUEEE NOW B4 ALL GONE"

Bluefin STILL carries both of their exclusive figures from last year with them to Cons.

And yes, the distributors are trying to get them on Sunday. The two-three I contacted tried earlier, but Bluefin told them not at the moment, try later. As in, we can't cut into our supply for today, we'll hook you up later.

I'm saying don't buy now because you'll regret it later. Honestly, $80-$90 is a bit too much, because

Also, the price on eBay has gone down by about $50 since Wednesday.

[Benagon]

I purchased a few figures from G-Fest.

-a couple vintage style Baragons. Not sure exactly who they were released by. One is solid red. The other is Orange with green highlights.

-Bandai Kanegon

-X-Plus Biollante

-a little SD Godzilla figure in a baseball outfit. When you turn his hat around he has swirly eyes

-Banpresto SD Ghidorah coin bank

I was wondering if anyone else who owns the Banpresto Ghidorah bank knows what batteries he uses? He didn't come with the box and it doesn't say what it uses in the battery compartment.

Lol you don't have to get into this with me, that's why I said, "let's agree agree to disagree."

[Manda2012]

Got a 54 Godzilla ParaBaby green off ebay for $20 plus $8 shipping. New in bag. Too good to pass up. Brings my PB total to 3.

That's quite a damn haul. Pics? One of the Baragons you got sounds like the Marmit I have.

And, man, X-Plus Biollante must be one hell of a figure to bring home.

[Creature22]

Man, reading all of these hauls makes me wish I could attend G-Fest this year. I went two or three years ago and found a ton of awesome deals.. and also, kudos to getting one of those Biollantes! But how DOES one bring an X-Plus Biollante home? That thing is enormous.

Here are some pics of my G-Fest pick ups. I still can't figure out what batteries this Ghidorah uses. I've searched online to no avail.

[Jomei]

Ah, the Baragons are Bullmark reissues. Still cool. The Ghidorah bank is awesome, and, of course, Biollante is INCREDIBLE.

[Benagon]

I think I got okay deals on the Baragons. $50 for the orange one and $30 for the red. Ghidorah bank was $15, Baseball Godzilla was $15, Kanegon was $12. I don't really want to talk about the price of Biollante.

[Jomei]

I don't really want to talk about the price of Biollante.

It's okay, man. I know that feeling. Hahaha!

non-collector friend/family member: "So how much did that one cost you?"
Me: "You really don't wanna know."

Part of a big 'sign and trade' at G Fest on the last day.
