Also received my cancellation notice.
I never really thought they would receive their shipment, but I did have hope I would get this piece for an honest price.
Now will Riobot reissue it, it's a possibility. And would be the best scenario for those who missed it.
But I will never pay 800$ for this!
Have faith..

Not sure about the 800$, but I'm pretty sure I'm close.

It's absolutely risen towards that price and the mazin powered version did nothing but raise the original price.

Our only hope is getting it use at decent price, or Sentinel manufacture a new batch.

I will say I'm certainly glad that I snapped a few of these up at release. It's a decent figure but certainly not warranting these prices. I think the repaint not being as attractive and the SoC not going over so hot certainly played a part in this. Here's definitely hoping for a reissue.

Agree with you!
The Riobot line is great, but not 800$ great.
Even at 300$ there is not much diecast in those figure.
Can I ask why you bought a few pieces?

Right now I'm really envious... just share with the poor people from the third world Now seriously... Do you sell sometimes or always keep more than one of everything? Keeping all those boxes must require a lot of space also...

Keeping all those boxes must require a lot of space also... I rarely sell super robot stuff, tbh. I used to buy multiples for spare parts tbh and keep one misb in case but now it's more of just habit

It's really an odd way of collecting. I guess when money is not an issue, you can have your display robot and the version that stay in the box.

It's really an odd way of collecting. Not really. More people buy multiples than you'd likely think.

Does RIOBOT tend to do a lot of straight reissues?

I don't remember any straight reissue from riobot line except the mospeada ones (there has been some reissues in others sentinel lines, like the trex black getter).

No. Even the aforementioned xT-Rex Getters had color and design differences (example; the "V" on the Getter 1's legs being wider on one than the other.) I don't know if it was found stock or a straight reissue but more Giant Gorgs popped back up for a while years back and recently they've reissued the Riobot Mospeada stuff which seem like they'll be in pretty regular production as new ones release.

I don't really see the point of getting 2 of the same thing, unless there is a resale value to it.
But again, can't argue with you, we each collect in our own way, and we all have different budget for it.
If you collect MISB item, and you are a master photographer like you are, than you must get at least 2 of each...

To be fair there is no point in collecting also, but here we are all of us....

As long as you're happy with your collection and how you've went about putting it together then you're golden. Not understanding why this is a discussion. No need to be rude!! It's a place to discuss about our collection, and yes how we collect is a discussion. The thing is I can say what I think and you on the other hand, cannot. I'm very happy for you if you are rich and can buy everything, but still I don't see the point of getting more that one. That is why I'm curious what you do with your collection, but like you say... you don't matter what I think!! But don't worry Kuma..... I still like you!!
