I think that's a fair price since he's a big boy. I think I got mine for $35, no box. In the fifty range is good though imo.

I got the SS Vegetto as a free figure with some others a couple years ago, and for the longest I didn't know what line it was from because it didn't have a box or anything. It came with some other bootleg stuff I ordered, so I'm pretty sure it's a bootleg too, but here's a comparison pic with other Vegetto's and a bootleg Figuarts Goku. I also posted the pic in the scale comparison thread.

You're right, and I do agree on that regarding the licensing. However, what if a figure so happens to be 100's of dollars and the only way a fan could afford one is to have a Chinese reproduction? I understand limited availability, collectability, and other factors that influence the initial pricing, but c'mon...it's a little ridiculous sometimes. Also, what if you just like the goofyness of a bootleg's paintjob like these DBZ SBC figures and the sort that come out of Chinatown? If you bought the originals first, I still don't understand the issue. I agree with you too. If the seller is honest, and the buyer knows what they're buying, it's cool. I have plenty of knockoffs, most of which are knockoffs of Banpresto and Bandai stuff, which I knew was bootlegs when I bought 'em. Lots of DWC and Real Works bootlegs, because I didn't feel like spending $10-15+ on little non-articulated figures. I bought a few sets that I didn't know were KOs way back from DealXtreme and DinoDirect, but for the most part, they are pretty good quality. I've bought some terrible quality bootlegs too, lol. For me, I like the figures themselves. If they look cool, I really don't care who made 'em. If there's not a huge price difference, I'll go legit. But for certain things, bootlegs are fine by me. As long as there's no deception involved, it's all good in my book. When people ask about one of my figures, I don't try to pass it off as real if it isn't. I have one of the Golden Oozaru bootlegs from China, which is pretty expensive for the legit version because it's a limited release. Sh!t looks really good for a bootleg imo, and it's something I would have otherwise never gotten most likely. Btw, awesome DeA/Atlas collection! They're one of my favorite sets.

I personally only have my one small dog that stays indoors. I honestly don't like big dogs in the house, lol. I wish we still had a cat outside though, to keep the mice population down. There's wild ass strays out there though, but I can't get 'em to come to me.

I think most people that hate bootlegs hate the ones that are just copies of legit stuff. These bootlegs you have are original molds to the best of my knowledge, just unlicensed. And licensing and copyrighting is something within each country's laws or w/e, so how can someone be mad because their country frowns on it, but another country doesn't care one way or another.

Awesome stuff, serenity and takezo!
As for LP, I really like all their stuff. People shouldn't pigeon-hole a group into a certain sound. They've changed, but it still sounds great to me. A lot of people didn't like A Thousand Suns, but I loved it. Robot Boy is my jam. It just has a sad, methodical tone to it, and that kind of stuff really gets me goin. I like really hype songs, but slow songs need love too.
