@supersaiyansanchez I really hope that is the case. Otherwise we're kinda screwed it seem. Poster Version Godzilla 2014 from the MonsterArts line was limited to 8000 units worldwide, and was an Amazon japan exclusive that was packed with a special Blue-Ray, and that was considered to be an extremely limited edition. It went out of stock in hours after it's launch. But I wonder about that 500 units, it doesn't sound like a realistic scale for this type of commodity. Agreed. Of course if the rumors are true about it being our SDCC, then there will be a lot more than just the 500. (Other than the boxes, I guess. Hopefully they don't use those boxes for SDCC.)

Just considering production run costs, I can't fathom only making 500 of him is economical. I don't have a horse in the game or anything though, so I guess it's like when people tell me "It shouldn't be hard to program, it should take you like an hour!*" * It never takes an hour to do anything requested. It's always ended up being some convoluted mess!

It'll probably be just the exact same figure in the same type of box we always get. I can 100% guarantee they will NOT use the Mexico box for the SDCC exclusive. It's got the Mexican flag colors on it! This is just gonna end up being that Mexico simply got an exclusive box tailored to their country. WOW, really exclusive

I had secured a goku figure for tomorrow buying it for $150 tomorrow (I am in another city and I was flying there for work), but the buyer regreted hours later I suppose because he saw prices going up like clouds.
I see some people selling it for 200 USD now in the mexican figuarts webpage.
better wait for SDCC and buy the figure for 80

Does anyone have connections or can get word to Tamashii Nations and just straight out ask if the Mexico Goku will be this SDCC exclusive or not? Or if they'll even have a exclusive. But just ask as its just one month away now and I don't think it'll be a big problem or hurt to let us fans know of what is to come of the SDCC exclusive. By this also will give me and i'm positive others, a peace of mind of not going after the current Mexico Gokus listed on ebay.

Not sure of others planning on staying, but I plan to pop in here and there if a topic interest me to join in. :-) As I'm new to collecting the DBZ line, have mostly all of them. Got them at decent prices, wish I got them at their regular prices though, but didn't go way over just for one. But really wanted the mexico Goku as thats how I remember him growing up watching DBZ in the mornings. Somehow the basic channel I would watch DBZ on never got past the Frieza series. But later on watched the rest of DBZ on Cartoon Network. But thats how I mostly remember Goku. Darker outfit, "Go" symbol, and loose ties on his strap belt thing. Wish I can get the figure but not for that much, I didn't even get my Trunks and SS Vegeta for the prices on the Mexico Goku right now!

Plus I swear why didn't they fix the knee gap thing! Again, they had a good chance to do it but nope! If they fixed the knees, then I can see it being more of a exclusive than just a repaint, tweek of the belt strap, and one extra face. But the knees, if they done it like Krillans or Trunks then it is a improvement and more of a exclusive as its more of a difference than its regular release or exclusive release.

The guys at the event said the person in charge the one who confirmed they only had 500 gokus said for those who missed out they could buy them at sdcc.

I had a friend in mexico go for me the tickets were like 15 USD and people camped out over night for the figures. they gave 250 the first day and 250 the second, so some people bought multiple tickets and they brought family right before they opened so they ended up with 4 to 5 gokus.
