I guess it was bound to happen. This wangyonghai guy learns of the demand for the product and the amount of $$$ people will pay so he wants to cash in and make more $$ for himself. Since Derry and his presses are thousands of miles apart there's no way for him to keep tabs on what's going on. It sucks for him and his goals of keeping things limited. Greed is a powerful thing, and the China dude has a large case of it.

HAN is completely locked down. If you're not a member of Honda-Acura.net, you will not be able to view this thread.

I constantly see the same names on here, so I'm not worried about information leaks at all.


No blind google search will tap this thread, there's no way to understand what we're talking about either. (we're at over 1,000 total pages of TF chat now .. i think)

Right now, we have 8 of the 10 red foot primes consumed.

I'm almost positive Derry will keep 1, the other will go on eBay. IF that hits eBay it'll be front page news on every TF board. It'll hit into the $100's ... then more will surface due to Chinese producer's greed.

If we want to protect our 8, we need to get that last 1 or 2.


I'm not sure if we should all chip in and raffle it off? I have no idea what to say in this case.

oh hell yes.

and now, as an adult, imaging being able to get rare and pristene Transformers that you could never otherwise get.

red foot is $10 more than the sale priced OG's.



here's the thing though, 10 figures per case ... what if something happens to the end figures? that means 2 are bashed, 8 are good.

or does Derry have extra boxes to make state side repairs?

^ Raffle? That would be cool. If all eight of us commit to do it...

12.86 per entry (winner to cover shipping themselves).

We could draw numbers. We could use the evening pick 3 numbers from the illinois lottery on a given day. Add the three numbers up and use the last digit. EX: 4 - 5 - 6 = 15 ~ winning number is 5.

I like this idea. Let's do it.



(no pricing pls, thanks - e3NiNe)

not even all 8 ...



we could sell 10 tickets ... buy as many as you want to increase your odds of winning. :dunno: One of us will have to sit out to do the drawing, but yea ... this might work.
