Bandai Japan has contacted customers that have pre-ordered the Tamashii Collectors manufactured Saint Seiya Pegasus -Gold Cloth-statue via-email informing them that all pre-orders will be canceled due to a manufacturing defect found in the painting process that resulted in imperfections.

The statue was to be sold as a limited-edition item priced at 105,000 yen or $1130 US dollars at the current exchange rate. The statue was originally announced at the Tamashii Nation 2008 convention and was originally set for release the past February before being delayed to July 18th and ultimately canceled.

    Hi, thanks for link us about this news.
    By the way, the figure is not from Pegasus… it's from Sagittarius Gold Cloth.
    Greetings.

    Estas segura, Saouri? Aqui esta el link the Play-Asia que fija a Tamashii como el fabricante y Gold Cloth como parte del nombre de la estatua.

    Si lo puedes confirmar de una vez con alguien mas, hare el cambio al articulo con mucho gusto. No quiero hacer molestia pero es que tengo que averiguar con seguridad. :)

    Saludos
