Today's $161 is Tomorrow's $350 Plus..If you can get it.

Or it's just the hype

Items very often rise in price super fast after they are announced OOP or if another element of the franchise is announced (i.e. Batman Begins Japan).

I'm sure this one will join the Rio's and other blufans releases: lots of hype, people getting all excited about the title and then it eventually fades...

Who's kunxia?

I'm guessing its the eBay seller who had the stock.

That's very true Mehdi, the value looks like its going to skyrocket but never does on a lot of these titles. At the moment it's red hot because everyone wants it but down the line you never know how popular it will become. It's always going to be expensive because its limited to 500 copies but the price may hold rather than going through the roof.

YEH your right buddy..But like real estate..Sometimes you have to speculate to accumulate..Some PAY OFF some don't..You just have to pick the right target at the right time and do a quick flip or wait for the right market..

I guess that even if the sellers don't get a high enough price by now, it won't lose it's value and can be sold for very steep prices even years from now, as it happens with other rare releases (Iron Man, Romeo and Juliet, Mouling Rouge).

In fact, since this is was the last Viva of all and probably there won't be any other "Elite Squad" releases either, it may only help the prices to remain high forever.

Finally ! They are here..
I think the black cover have room to improve, but then...it's the last VMB. Who cares..
The bullet holes are like Lawless, looks real good. The full black color slip is the killer, awesome.
With a quarter slip that slip up the bottom part of the slip, creating another look.
Overall, this is definitely a must have.

Looks really great

I still hope i will receive mine from the ebay user xiankun who sold alot last week. After i sent a message regarding if he is legit or not he updated my item as shipped this saturday and said he was sorry for not sending it at the promised date last week and that it should arrive within 15-20 days (no tracking).

 

[n3wk1d]

You spend that much and not having tracking ???
You are so brave.
Why not just add up a little and get a tracking for a piece of mind?

Anyone heard anything when he will ship the items (if anyone else here bought it from kunxia) ?

To me he said he would ship after payment (monday) and when i messeged him again he said he would send it on thursday but still nothing.

To another person he said he had it all packed up and would ship very soon but who knows

Well I had made the payment on Friday and regarding shipping he had told me it will be done today...till now no update though

Actually, it's the other way around. The seller should have gotten tracking to protect himself.


Thanks for the photo. They look awesome and I can't wait to get it!

This Viva itself has the 2nd movie, that could as well be called "Elite Squad 2". There's action, of course, but it's more focused on the politics and corruption in the police and government.

The main characters are the same from the 1st movie, so it would be better to watch that first. BTW, it has a lot more action and was much more successful.

Ok. As more and more of these pop up on ebay the price keeps going up. Also people keep using the blufans picture and putting their own watermarks on it. Pretty shady.

This seller had 3 for sale it appears. 1 sold for $200 and another sold for "accepted offer" So who knows.

Can anyone confirm if this comes 'sealed' in any shrinkwrap?
