Oh? Getting that AND the Gigabrain? :shock:


Gigabrain is already starting to back out on some orders, and the ones that Mike J. made for us haven't seen fruition, yet. So we shall see!

But yes, I'll be broke for a good month :freak: .

I haven't heard anything out of Mike, so don't get worried yet. My guess is that they're just late.

Whose orders did Gigabrain back out on? I've got a KG on pre-order, too... haven't heard anything.

I'm now a card-carrying Pilot Ace fan. My MosuGoji should be in next week I think. I don't expect to find another from this company for a long while, but it's kinda cool the the two I did find more or less make a set.

^ALL of my jealousy Jomei, all of my jealousy. If you don't mind, how much did KG run you?

Great score, congratulations, but seriously; so jealous... :)

KG was in a lot of four stylized figures. See the "Toy you just bought" thread for the others. The whole bunch ran me $350 with shipping; I got lucky. I mean, that's a good chunk of change, but I knew that 1) this was a rare opportunity and 2) considering the value of the whole lot, it was a great deal.

Great haul. KG alone is worth the price of admission that you paid, no joke. Seller really screwed up by not having the word Godzilla in the title :)

Now if I could only find a Rodan....

Nice. I actually like the look of it, though I'm fond of most Showa MechaG figures.

^ I wasn't going to get it (like I mentioned earlier in this thread) but I'm a sucker for pilot ace and then when the opportunity arose, I reflexively bought it.

Now I got this one in the mail today (i've been spamming the FB group with my gigabrain ghidorah pics, but i'm going to sneak this one on here). This is my 2nd gigan but the colorway i'd never seen before anywhere so i bought it. Now i don't know if i'm going to keep it or sell it or trade or whatever so it's still in the bag

Tempting! I think that the KG, G64 and GIgan from this line are purty attractive...

I don't like the leg pose...but after seeing it in person I like it a lot better than the pics I've seen on the internet. Now I need to track down a Rodan.

That Gigan looks beautiful, and that MG looks great.

Baaaahhhh.. If I didn't have so many projects planned, I'd like to get a nice pilot ace figure.

A wild Ghidorah appears!

That's a lot of scratch, but it's a lot of figure, and this is the only one I see anywhere online for sale.
