++Apologies to Lapse of Reason, I was typing this up at the exact same time you were...I credited you though!++

It would be better if they updated their site w/accurate info. Revoltech Megs is still listed under Preorder, & MP3 is still in b/w pictures. Still, it's the only place I order from, so at least they update at all.....................

Of special note might be the first 8 Japanese Beast Wars reissues are all 50% off!

http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/menu ... egory=3377

*gasp* Does that include that lot of the first 8 as well? ........*looks at the lot of 8* It does!! I can get e'm all for $120! Bwahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!

Their prices are atrocious.

That, coupled with their hike in shipping costs (before this Priority Mail issue) has deterred me from buying from them in quite some time.

Yeah, but 8 Japanese figures for $120? I find that resonable considering the original price. However, that's just me, everyone has their standards.

More stupid orange tips!

YEAH! The return of Start Wars unleashed 7 inches!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OH Man. My other geek passion just got a whole lot more awesomeriest. I am hoping for more Jedi real soon. Come on Kit Fisto and Plo Koon!

Um, I absolutely love that Eva =)
