| 00:00 - 00:05 | Last week my bro found a Daniel Plainview sculpt by Mina after hunting for it for ages. |
| 00:05 - 00:07 | He couldn't believe his own luck! Only 5 pieces made worldwide. |
| 00:07 - 00:10 | With this level of rarity it wouldn't be cheap, but it's the grail of grails. |
| 00:11 - 00:16 | It cost him almost $1,000 and it was still a bargain! Gonna be a crown jewel in his collection. |
| 00:17 - 00:21 | Today the organizer announced he's selling 5 more for $200 a piece. |
| 00:21 - 00:24 | $200 a pop! |
| 00:29 - 00:31 | 5 more casts! |
| 00:31 - 00:34 | And my friend's sculpt hasn't even arrived yet. |
| 00:38 - 00:40 | One of the rarest after sculpts in the world! |
| 00:41 - 00:47 | The guy's excuse is a crappy recast was released in China. Like it hasn't ever happened before. |
| 00:47 - 00:50 | So if the Chinese are selling recasts of his sculpt already, why wouldn't he? |
| 00:50 - 00:56 | These damn Chinese are stealing our jobs and a man has to eat! |
| 00:58 - 00:59 | And the best bit? |
| 00:59 - 01:01 | Think of all these people who paid up to $3,000 to get it! |
| 01:04 - 01:06 | He is probably gonna sell extra 30 on top of that 5! |
| 01:06 - 01:08 | Not a single difference between the casts! |
| 01:13 - 01:14 | And the COAs? |
| 01:14 - 01:16 | The original run didn't have any |
| 01:16 - 01:20 | So this one will come with a Certificate of Inauthenticity! |
| 01:21 - 01:27 | The irony of it is you finally don't need oil money to buy the Oil Man! |
| 01:35 - 01:36 | You can ship yours to Silent Surfer |
| 01:36 - 01:39 | In a tiny Gucci bag to match its past market value |
| 01:41 - 01:44 | And tell him "bro, this is an extremely rare sculpt, can you paint it for me?" |
| 01:44 - 01:47 | "And can you expedite the process?" |
| 01:47 - 01:49 | "I even have some spare change I could give you." |
| 01:50 - 01:53 | Sure bro, I'll paint it in 2 years instead of the usual 4. |
| 01:54 - 01:56 | And I still won't reply to your DMs. |
| 01:56 - 01:58 | I have people waiting for their Madbug sculpts |
| 01:58 - 02:02 | I'm hoping half of them forgets they even sent theirs to me. |
| 02:05 - 02:07 | What a fantastic hobby this is! |
| 02:10 - 02:11 | And can you remember |
| 02:11 - 02:13 | Can you remember |
| 02:15 - 02:17 | How people were bitching about Hot Toys |
| 02:17 - 02:20 | For missing the release dates and reissuing figures? |
| 02:21 - 02:28 | Now if an outfit run is late by 1 year you are lucky! And it's still getting a 2nd run with tweaks! |
| 02:29 - 02:30 | Take that elitists! |
| 02:30 - 02:32 | Yeah, take that elitists! |
| 02:36 - 02:39 | Or like the head sculpt runs of 30 for #250 a pop |
| 02:40 - 02:42 | that you can find on eBay 3 months later for $30! |
| 02:50 - 02:55 | And all of the Plainview runs are cursed like that. |
| 02:56 - 02:58 | What else has happened to the Plainview projects? |
| 02:58 - 03:04 | Do you remember the Dai sculpt that was announced years ago? |
| 03:04 - 03:09 | A recast was available before the original sculpt was even shipped out. |
| 03:09 - 03:11 | And it had better print quality and texture detail than the original. |
| 03:16 - 03:20 | You wanna start your own run? |
| 03:23 - 03:26 | It's the best business ever! You collect the deposits and run! |
| 03:31 - 03:36 | You just go with an excuse that Toribox is booked until 2034. |
