What they need is a good cartoon (like Bakugan Battle Brawlers) to boost the sales, not more and more complex virtual pets

A very unfair comparison imo. You're comparing 5 anime seasons over the span of nearly 10 years vs 1 anime season?

It's the marketing strategy

for collection lol..just take back the wonderswan back to my collection

pendulum cycle series were never released in Malaysia. You can only find it overseas. cost unknown.

Thanks for the info DeinanCF. Kinda surprised that stores in Malaysia are not carrying them because I've seen several people from Singapore selling them on ebay which mean that they should be available over there. The box is in English as well which would make it easier to sell over here.

Also discovered that there are actually some digimon for mobile over at Japan, not sure how to get it outside of Japan though.

Well, our main supplier for anything digimon was Litt Tak, but it seems that they focus mainly on Gundam items now.

From what I can remember, they mass - brought Digimon vpet version 1 to Malaysia and hardly any in between season 1- 5. Till now, with the 6th season of digimon toys, but even so there was hardly any news/publicity about it.

But I do recall seeing a few Digimon Tamers(season 3) digimon character toys in Toys R Us. The vpet v2 - pendulums that popped up were mostly in brought in by smaller game/toy shops, hence the scarcity of them.

This is all based on my own observation within KL, it could be different in your area.

-------------------------------

It's actually not surprising that Digimon toys are scarce here, there's no one that brought them in or really publicized Digimon. Who would bring in something which has no confirmed marketability?

There may be hidden and/or previous fans of Digimon, but without putting wood to fire, it eventually dies down. This is the case with Digimon here.

-------------

As for the digimon for mobile, it's possible to battle another mobile digimon via infra-red.

FYI, there is actually an arcade Digimon machine in Japan that connects to the mobile phone via infra-red to battle. It is also the reason why
the new digivice ic/data link are now using infra-reds to connect to each other instead of the old prong connectors.

The digivice ic can be used to battle the Digimon arcade machine.

Thanks for the interesting detailed explanation DeinanCF. Looks like going directly to Japan is the best way to get them.

That's only true for the Japanese versions. For English Versions ie. Pendulum Cycle, your best bet is ebay.

Well, they were discussing about it on http://withthewill.net/index.php?topic=13473.0. I think your a member there as well. Since you have a huge collection of digimon, I've been wondering how much a second hand English v1 would cost in the market today?

oic..thanks for the link,and yeah i also member there,but i seldom open that forum..btw for second hand ver1 english nowadays i think around rm100++..and depend on the condition too..
