My ultimate fear is that I would buy it...and then she would show up as a wizard world special for $20 this summer.
I just can't do it...as much as I want too...just can't.

Now that I'm past the initial "Gotta Have One" phase, I'm just waiting to see what the other auctions are going to end at. If I can get another one for less than $75, I'll probably do it. I just didn't want to risk not getting one at all.

I did some quick math, and 38 are being sold or are sold up on ebay. Thats one third. I guess we will wait and see how the other 2/3 willows go. (If the rest go up on eBay)

Did we ever get official confirmation on the total number of Tour Willows made? Was it indeed 100?

I recall someone here who talked to a rep at toy fair who indeed confirmed less than 100 were to be had. Top that with the $400 order retailers had to put in to get her, I think $100-150 is a fair deal for it...
On another note, mine is scheduled to arrive tomorrow. When it comes I'll take some pics of her for everyone...

The official number has never been announced, but it's absolutely more than 100.

No, we did something stupid in listening to Rileyfan.
Just kidding kinda. I don't think it matters if there's 100 or 300. This is a very rare figure and I have one now.

Well, I persuaded my dad to get me the World Tour Willow today, for my birthday (March 18). I got it off eBay for $100, including shipping. See, I usually get $100 for my birthday anyway, so the World Tour Willow will replace that this year. I have to say that this is the most expensive figure I will have.

I think you should just like the figure.
Who cares if the value goes down, if you planned on keeping it, that's the point.
But if you planned on flipping it real quick for some $$$ I can see the problem. Otherwise just enjoy the figure!

I just mean, if I paid 99 for it, I prey it was not a waste of money, and I can get it anywhere... |

I agree. I'd hate to buy something for $130 and then find out that Diamond is giving them away to Radical members as the "Free Gift" just like they did with their ToyFair exclusive last year...... D'OH!

I guess that's where the saying comes in
"Only a schmoe buy 1.0"
You should never rush into anything where $$$ is concerned.

It's like that time I paid $120 for a Japanese reissue of G1 Megatron, and Takara rereleased it in a superior version and package for like $75.

I don't care if the value goes down.
I'll just be able to get another one or two. Keep
one in bag, open one, put one on a Card.
