Well it makes sense to me if she is from Everett since she is probably an employee of Funko. Seems like the employees do get access to the figures in advance from time to time.

I'n not surprised it didn't sell the first time it was posted $ 264.99, its been relisted at $225.00. The newbie zero rating is what has me kind of worried. I would love to pick this up when the whole kit comes out..... I really hope its soon :)

What has me worried is that I have asked the seller where it came from and how she got it- and she's not saying. Why on earth not? Is it knock off? stolen? Why the 0 feedback?

We shouldn't even assume this dragon king is going to be a part of a kit. The Dragon king mold isn't exclusive to kits.

I'm surprised not one Verdigris kit has shown up on ebay yet, with all the other ACGHK pieces hitting ebay. :-k

Check out this Dragon King. Has this colorway shown up anywhere before?

28597


It looks like that color (as noted above sold at Hong Kong convention) and a few others we maybe haven't seen yet were featured at the Manilla Creatures of Light festival- looks like more colorations are on their way... unless they already hit in Asia.

Not a fan of the Freddy in this one vs the last one, but I will say the Dragon King in this color scheme looks way cooler!

It would be pretty cool to have an entire army of the Dragons- all of the color variations! I do wonder now how many there are since we don't seem to be doing a perfect job of keeping track of the Asian-issued versions... (IE the Hong Kong exclusive- maybe some of those others are other Asian exclusives ??? Does anyone know? Doctony- do you know ?? (thanks btw for the info re the HK exclusive)

Finally one of these sets has hit ebay! It's currently listed at $210 shipped so I'm not exactly itching to pull the trigger, but they should be showing up more often now.

I'm eagerly waiting on someone looking to get rid of the Blue Freddy. Of the colorways I've seen, this has been my fave.

Ah- finally they show up! I LOVE the blue dragon/Freddy sets! I am hoping that like the SDCC sets, they will drop in price as time goes on-

I hope this is released in Singapore. I definitely like this variant more than the red.

I really love the red/gold/black colorway- kind-of rainbowy. I love this blue one too- I hope the price drops for it on ebay like it has with the first set. (If anyone has been holding off on the first set- now is the time to look- there are now individuals and sets selling for BELOW the original cost)

I'm sure there will be- there were a LOT of colorways at the Minstyle display in Manilla- and only a few have popped up at the various conventions so far (3 that I know of)

I do love the look of the blue Freddy and Dragon King- if the price is right I will definitely snap them up :D
