Now to figure out if I want the plush, the pillow, or both

I ordered both! I couldn't resist the cute puppies!~

Man, it must suck to have been one of the people on eBay who paid $150+ for one of these... D:

I would get both. Capcom says that they will put limited amounts of both the pillow and the plus on their website. People that went to PAX East said that they each ran for $40 dollars, so this is extremely cheap.

edit: THANKS OP! I'm glad I was able to get them, rather than running the risk of Capcom selling out.

Wow great find! Really want both of these ...

pillow or plush pillow or plush ahhhh

Ordered both.

Thx op, got the pillow for my girl, plush for my nephew. He'll love this thing!

Apparently some girl is trying to take advantage of their mass shipping on eBay. Purchased a large amount of them, and then discounted the plushies/pillows by 2 dollars. And is selling them with 6 dollar shipping.

I'm in for the pillow.

Ugh. Going to hold off for tonight incase I get Buyer's Remorse, I did just drop $1000 on a new computer. But chances are if it's still there in the morning I'm going to buy the pillow...

Man these cute things are my Achilles' Heel...

That's actually how I found out about these. I saw those auctions on eBay and was wondering where they got them, so I looked up the company and there they were!

Are these the same pillows as the ones Capcom is selling at conventions? Since I thought they were selling these.

Completely different.

As far as I know, those were only available from the Capcom store in Japan. (Unfortunately)

Yes, these are the ones that they were selling at PAX East, and plan to sell again in their online store soon(tm).

The one you linked was the limited edition plush they sold in Japan. Dunno if it's making a return, but it's unlikely.

xD Think the seller is legit? Sure, 100+ feedback and at 100%, but the whole thing is iffy to me.

Damn, I was really hoping to finally pick up one of those at a decent price. I so regret not biting the bullet and ordering one when they were around 80 bucks so much!

Ordered both as soon as I saw this thread... Which meant I didn't yet read the discussion regarding the differences in this pillow versus the Japanese one. Oh well, I think it's still a fair price for a 16in plush/pillow, even if it seems less "stuffed."

Thanks for the heads up, OP!

how much is shipping for both?

ordered the plush. Im going to hug it everyday

The site lists $6 flat rate for their cheapest option, labeled "Best Way." I don't know if that's supposed to be the name of a courier service, or what... (I ordered one of each and only paid $6 for s/h; no tax in FL; $52.98 total.)

If I recall correctly, next up was $14.xx for UPS Ground (YMMV, if price varies depending on shipping destination).
