Back then most of the pieces were made available here in Australia via Popcultcha. I guess it wasn’t for a year or two later that they went into that distribution deal with Sideshow.
It’s not like all pieces are made available to the US, and a lot of collectors import XM pieces etc. But I guess it’s a matter of exposure, but reissues always rub me the wrong way even though I don’t collect for investment purposes etc. Its just that they’re meant to be limited, not produced for everyone who wants a piece.
But then again I was one of those that received those additional edition pieces from Iron Studios for the 1/4 AOU pieces. But I didn’t know that at the time given that I preordered at the same time as everyone else.
