Wanted: Giant Pokemon Center Raikou

Sun Dec 6, 2009, 3:04 PM
After losing one put up for auction for the first time, I figure I should try my luck here.

For eight years, I've been searching for the Big Size Pokemon Center Raikou plush. While I was lucky enough to buy Entei off the old Pokemon Center New York site back in 2001, and win a Suicune put up for auction a few years ago, Raikou has always been elusive. Apparently rarer than the other giants, the only evidence I had of one even existing was a photo tucked away in the old Pokemon Center New York site's virtual tour of the store (pictured below.) Only one other time do I know of was it put up on an auction site. Raikou, along with the other giants, were made by Tomy released at the end of 2001 in the Japanese and New York Pokemon Centers as an end of year commemoration of their respective movies/specials. Lord of the Unown Tower for Entei, Celebi: A Timeless Encounter for Suicune, and Raikou: Legend of Thunder for Raikou.

It's a huge longshot, but it never hurts to try. I'm searching for a Raikou in near-mint to mint condition, no hang tag required but I hope for it to at least have the tush tag. I am willing to pay $1000-1500, up to $2000 if payment plans are accepted. I cannot afford to offer more unless I somehow win the lottery.

I guarantee you will never see Raikou up for resale for a profit from me; I cherish my entire collection and can't imagine selling any of it, let alone my giant Entei and Suicune. I can't put a price on a plush I would love so much, either, only an offer for a chance to own one at last. The best way to contact me is at suicune3k (at) yahoo.com, but you can also sent a Note. Of course, I'm also looking for information leading to one, so please let me know if you have a lead!

Please help me complete my trio at last.
