I'd originally intended to pick up Medicom's RAH Spawn, having found nothing else worth buying. It was quite funny how I managed to pick up this beautiful piece.
On the first visit to Toyhunters, I asked whether the piece on the shelf, marked "Taking pre-orders now" was for sale. The shop assistant said its sold out, but will be available again in June. Tough luck, so I looked around some more.
On the second visit, I asked another shop assistant whether they had any in the store, since the sign outside said that it was "selling fast", not "taking pre-orders now". Another shop assistant, a female, said that it just sold out. Too bad.
On the last day, Wife told me she'd noticed two pieces on the bottom shelf. I took a look at them and thought they were empty as the boxes were rather light. I opened the flap and saw that they were actual products. I scanned the shop for the previous days two shop assistants. One was occupied, the female wasn't around. I took the piece, went up to the cashier and said, rather commandingly, "I want to buy this". He looked abit shocked and told me the price. I said, "Ok, I'll buy it NOW." I handed him the cash and scored the Endoskeleton! Apparently prices in Sg have hit much more than what it retailed for, but the good news is that there will be a second run. At least I won't need to wait for that.
