interesting fact about these Asia Exclusive Figures

Received four Asia Exclusive figure today and found something interesting about them. Packaging is different than the pictures I saw on TFW's Botcon pics.

These packagings does not have a single Chinese characters on them. They actually have "FABRIQUE EN CHINE" beside Made in China. All the instructions are in English together with "FABRIQUE EN CHINE"

It does say distributed in Australia, but last time I checked, Aussies do not speak French.

Maybe it is possible for TRU to slap some stickers on them and make it Exclusive??

I think I did read somewhere that they will be offered through TRU later this year.

That's what I heard in a couple of posts from TFW members. I don't know if it has been confirmed, but I hope it does happen.

Re: interesting fact about these Asia Exclusive Figures

It was already announced that these would see release in North America but in the Chinese packaging.

So China gets the English/French packaging and we get the Chinese packaging? Guess that makes sense......................in ass-backwards land.

Agreed. But you had to bother him a little. Waited until the end of the day and when he barely sold anything, he buckled at all four for $100. I have to admit, they're all pretty sweet, even CJ.
