That's what I thought. But considering how many you bought, I thought you may want to know.

Even if you got a confirmation, it could be for just 1 figure. Sorry if I'm annoying you. smilie
Did they already send you a photo of your order? I'm very skeptical about these prototypes...

    Just ordered this and 3 other sets of items from Taobao. Prototype S2 CHOP CHOP! GOLDS!


    how do you get these rare findings? do you constantly check the website? because i only go there ever so often and i find really bad stuff. could you link me to the agent you use? (help a forum bro out, promise i wont buy all the good loot (i has no money))

    EDIT: did anyone else see the bluish thing under the clear and white kaoses in the picture above me?

    Edit: Just ordered that set off of Taobao with Taobaonow that you got Matteomax! But for a few figures, that was exspensive with the fee and shipping. I dont want to pay another shipping cost! 'smilie'

    Edit 2: How much did you pay for shipping Matteomax? Also, how much did you buy? Trying to calculate the cost for 8 figures.

    I'm not sure I've ever seen a fully unpainted figure packaged from Acti??

    what about the set with the three golds and proto chop? do you choose/random or you get all of them? seems pretty cheap, as 9 yen is only 9 cents.

    I keep waiting for new prototype pics to show up, but seems they are very far and few in between!? smilie

    I just noticed that TFB did experiment with using original colored bases on their chase variants. Seeing that the White flocked variants had colored eyes like what you see below, my guess is that they will use original colored bases for at least one of their future chase variant releases. Only time will tell I guess...

    As I said before, it's going to be tough to score authentic prototypes on Taobao going forward, because most companies take stricter measures once they realize that their items have been sold by some of their employees. Not saying it couldn't happen, just going to be that much more difficult.

    Keep up your persistent hunting though.. say.. perhaps that's why you've been given the title of hunter!? smilie

    Cool!

    What makes #2 Flocked S2s rarer than say #5 Rock Zook or Whirlwind?

    Or even #3 Clear Elf less rare than a Flocked S2, given they are all chase variants and are randomized the same?
