Really? Wasn't the 8-bit Simon an exclusive elsewhere?

Really?  Is that at the site or only in the stores?

I was at GS today, and read those little magazines they have in the front. It said if you reserve it, you get a 8-Bit Simon Belmont Figure when you come to pick it up.

Yeah as cool as that is, I already ordered one from the San Diego Comic Con cause Neca toys said it was a limited 1000 or 2000 or something, but I guess I'm getting a second one soon
What a horrible night to have a curse!

I'm tempted to reserve it now even though I don't have a PSP or plan on getting one just to get the figurine.

I've heard these were very poorly made (they certainly look like it), and that this promotion is more a ploy to get rid of their overstock than anything else.  Don't be fooled.

I preordered mine, whether or not it comes with Simon I won't care, I'll likely just stand him on top of my PC desk anyway (I was told mine would come with a Pixel Simon).

Nothing special on this 8-bit Simon figure for me. I don't like it at all. It's like a pixelized picture of Simon, so i'm not interesting.

The pixel-Simon was a SDCC exclusive, that they must have had some extras left over from....because I've heard that they'll only be given out to a undetermined amount of the early pre-orders of the game. When that will cut-off is anyone's guess, and it's only advertised in the stores from what I've seen.

I have a printout from a while back.  When I go pick up the game, I'm taking the printout.

I want my 8bit Simon, dammitall.

They were one of the best selling figures at comic-con.  You heard wrong.
https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13104670/1/Castlevania-Birth-of-the-Dragon

Dracula was not always a monster. He was once a man named Mathias Cronqvist. A flawed, conflicted, genius of a man. How did the educated, aristocratic, crusader who piously served the church become a vampire, and eventually the Dark Lord himself, the opposing force to God? From a very young age terrors and tragedy shaped the man into the king of all evil. This is his story.

No, Neca is selling all there other comic con exclusives online except for Simon because they ran out.  They are making more for the pre-order.

I have never even seen this 8-bit simon. Quite frankly, to me its all about the game itself, not the figure. Can anyone link me to an image of it anyway?

Also, I guess I'm more excited for my play-asia DXC order, since I got the Konamistyle special from there. November, how I cannot wait for you. :D
