Someone please enlighten this poor soul.... On April 25th 2010, there are 100 pieces of GX-45C with Go Nagai's autograph for sale at the Go Nagai museum. Tamashii lucky draw GX-45C has no autograph.

i just emailed toy wave about this... hopefully he will reply back and let us know. But toy wave indicated on its site that it is 100pcs limited. If that is the case, then it should be the signed one right?

Compare to that those are great deals! edit: found the link: page11.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/n88055018

BTW, I highly doubt that the toy-wave version is signed...., and if it's not signed, then it's definitely NOT limited to 100 pieces. Probably a misunderstanding on their part.

Yeap, that got me confused too, if it is not signed then they can keep it.

Wor from Mr Ken from Toy Wave
"The 100 limited is talking about there's only 100 pieces to sell in that event, but it's not the one which have signature. That means the product do not have signature and it's the same product with the Tamashii limited lucky drawing"
I dont know what to do now

It's pretty hard to gauge how the price of GX-45C will go. When the Tamashii web lucky draw is over and the item gets distributed all over Japan in mid June, chances are that we will see GX-45C flood yahoo auctions Japan. If that happens, price is likely to drop for a short while before the item becomes rare and start appreciating again.
Then again, if there's too many of it in the market, the price won't really appreciate much either.
Tough choice.

Well the good news to those who paid high cost up front is that even though it's available at Tamashi, it's still a lucky draw, which means the quantity is limited to some degree. If the non-lucky draw GX-45A is able to fetch $200 perhaps the $250 to $300 for the GX-45C is not too ridiculous.
There are so many great toys out this year it's hard to choose!

Total run for the gx45c is as I saw to be 600 units. Still pretty rare, perhaps still a good buy?
