What about Giant being 1/2 Herc's price?

I'm having visions of Hercules stomping around Chicago, only for Giant to swoop in on a jetpack and punch his guts out.
And it's not to be a partisan, but for Herc-prices I'm not getting ANY Devastator.

what, what, what???!!???
Lmao
encline
you guys are wrong…. it is $8,000……. or less….
FuRiOus_StyLZe
Yeah…we were TOTALLY BEING A BUNCH OF FANBOYS.
I remember this conversation as well in the room. Regardless, $300-350 is what we should expect to pay and still a great deal. We all gotta remember, they're still making some tweaks to it and we were looking at a prototype.

Yes, I believe it was based on someone talking to their rep, but the details are that the yellow set that's released individually would have bonus parts, and additional paint app that won't be present in the green gift set version.
Its true that you will believe it when you see it, but I see no reason not to believe it. It's a great incentive to buy the yellow set, or everyone will just wait for the gift set for Geewun

Exactly. I've never seen anyone mistake English for Japanese until I heard the mispronunciation in the video. No Japanese or speak of Japanese would have blundered like that. I can only wonder what else was lost in translation.
What’s this talk about the yellow set coming with extra parts—I’ll believe it when I see it. I know folks here talked with reps at last week’s convention, but if they got one thing wrong, who knows what else might have been misinterpreted. The official site said nothing about additional items or anything of the sort—just what was translated a page or two back. Extra items would be a nice touch, but I’ll believe it when I see it.

INSIDE JOKE. I am sure Ma Ke will never appear anywhere official. I am also sure the rep knows his own company name, it is a simple one.
This will turn into a he said, she said thing so I won't push it but I still think it is cool that they enjoy calling themselves Loser Toy. It is funny becuase they are putting out the best stuff.

Knowing it Romanizes/ is properly pronounced "Meikutoi" makes me think whoever was there was just pronouncing the English spelling using Japanese rules.
For those who don't know the Japanese rules for pronouncing vowels:
So メイクトイ (meikutoi) is pronounced either mA-kU-toy or mAk-toy.

yellow on first release with bonus parts.
Green in gift set later.
