nope, no bootleg this time, shes straight from amiami with full 8 episodes, bonus footage, wall scroll, and figma, she cost me ALOT! I will be paying for her all summer if I cut back on purchases, but I had $100 set aside, well, not set aside, I had to cancel 2 other orders for it, I couldn't have ordered it if I hadn't known about starting a new job soon so I will be busy to pay it off, but it will be worth it

yeah but the Insane BRS is not a knock off at all, I got her straight from Amiami, and I wanted the poster and movies anyways, the rest is just a nice bonus, the BRSB was a bootleg made in china, I am very embarased I didn't notice that earlier, the BRSB's neck was long, the fire was wrong, the paint was poor, the plastic was jagged, and she was made in china, also, she was to cheep to be true, the eyes were off, alot of little things were wrong and with my over observance, I would notice it every day, The fact I didn't notice on ebay shocks and embaraces me!

would you mind posting picks of tv version BRS when you get her? I'd love pics of her in the hood

And I would also like to see pics and links to BRS 2035's bike, I'd love to see it after it was so amazing in the game, even if it was only towards the begining

on another note: I hope they make Chariot soon, she has such cool gear, I would doubt that they would provide the actual chariot she rides but I would hope that would be made seperate in that case

Everything is made in China. In fact, some bootlegs are made by the same factory/workers/molds, but with cheaper materials, without the consent of the owners, of course.

Or sometimes, ones that are rejected due to defects that got sneaked out of the factory.

well, I would assume glitch parts are just changed out rather than through away an entire figma, like if the lower arm gets mis painted, they would probably only replace the lower arm

and I was almost sure figma was made in Japan, hmmmm, maybe not then

It was pushed back indefinitely so it won't mix with the tv series releases.
Rumors say it'll come out in december, so the preorders should start this month. If not, keep hoping.

Designed in Japan, manufactured in China, as happens most of the japanese collectibles.
And if people charge more for a "japanese version" because it's sticker is different colored than the HK release, tell them to go kill themselves, because everything comes from the same factory and is exactly the same, but each distributor has it's own sticker. But only in cases where the figure isn't Japan-exclusive, like figma. You probably have something thta has a gold or silver Toei sticker.

I already said that. Except for the part about the bootlegs being made in the same factories as the originals. :P
