Looks awesome dude! I collect Pops as well, and it seems like something that would be officially released! Really good job!

I wouldn't worry too much. This is sort of a unique situation and I think you're seeing limited quantities at JAPANESE online stores of Warrior awakened Goku for one sole reason - BANDAI/TAMASHII wants this figure, the first "regular" DBZ Figuarts release in years, to primarily sell at brick 'n mortar retail stores IN JAPAN.
It doesn't "help" the line any if you distribute LOTS of your quantities to web stores when you're trying to get product BACK into actual, physical retail stores. Bandai/Tamashii wants this figure AND DRAGON BALL back on store shelves. Bandai/Tamashii is purposely holding back stock from online stores in order to fill retail orders and space. We will however, see this figure online with the Western online stores because of how we receive imports from Bluefin and other distributors. Considering the attention this figure is getting...even to the point where Tamashii gave it its own web-page and a video. Low stock would be a foolish business decision. A very good analysis Bardoon. I agree that it makes sense to short-stock the item so that it sells more in store. A big example of this is the current amiibo craze in America, although the situation is slightly different in terms of supply, allowing limited pre-orders online make a lot more people go into the store on launch, which not only means their stock will sell instantly, but people may buy other things in store since they are there, which motivates Brick-and-Mortar stores to carry their items. EDIT: Sorry for the double post

Amiami crashed for me when I was trying to pre-order him , I guess I'm going to have to pay around 80$ instead of 45$ You can simply wait and buy it from an American retailer and pay $40. You think the retail price will be that low on American retailers? P.S. - I'm in Canada

I am in love with this figure! It looks amazing, if future releases look as good as this, the line will really be one to collect with consistent, gorgeous releases!

My guess is that the guy is just jealous or a sore loser that he can't afford the figure, so hes trying to brag to everyone that the listing are scams. Did the guy ever think that maybe theyre actual new ebayers with no experience in bidding and stupidly think that being the top bidder actually wins you the figure? Its the scalper for setting the price at a high price and the dumb bidders increasing the price. I think the guy is just trying to make a point. I don't see why you would say that he is jealous or a sore loser... It's odd to see such a defence of scalpers from a new member, I really can't fathom how you can honestly believe that multiple bidders with ZERO feedback are not shill bids. I'm sorry if I sound like a jerk here, but I never would have expected to read an opinion like this on these boards. Usually people here are all supportive of others in the collecting community. EDIT: This is almost a guarantee to be this years SDCC exclusive, so I don't think we have to worry at all. Soon a ton of us will be paying around 120$ for this guy ahha

Just wanted to include this custom for reference that was made by vanillabearjd a while back. This looks amazing! I was trying to get a custom version of this vegeta a while back, but nothing ever came to fruition. Do you know if the person who made this vegeta would sell this version, or ever recreate a new one?

Has anybody ever ordered from www.anime-island.com ? They seem to have really good prices, but it feels too good to be true.
