that it sold for some redicolous price.

I mean I know THAT. I'm just trying to figure out what's so special about that strip in particular to justify the absurd bid.

Then again, it'd be bad form for me to auction mine off, money or not. I value my relationships than I value the money...

Probably just that it has all of the non-Producer-status idols in it.

Basically, it's what's known in the inudstry as a 'First release' bonus. It's not a preorder only item or even some sort of LE only thing, just a 'Limited release'.

It's a mini bonus to con people into buying a game new (as opposed to sitting around for six or nine months and buying it for half the price) and since it's printed in limited quantities, stores only get given so many. Once they run out, well, that's pretty much it.
Well, it would have been nice if there were enough strips to satisfy every preorder since preordering on August or on September (as I did) wouldn't make any difference for the software house (and for the retailers). But due to the nature of the bonus I understand it wasn't possible, so it's right the "first come first serve". ;)
Just wanted to know if I could stress amiami for my missing strip. XD

Then I must be lucky to get this bonus, since I placed my order late.

That filmstrip you got must be rare, so ppl is willing to spend big money to get it.

Even though I didnt get Haruka, but I'm happy with Chihaya  :D

I have seen ppl got background only or the producer... :-\

Well, mine's a bit special. If I ever auctioned it off, the people who gave me the copy will know IMMEDIATELY. And well, you can't exactly just sell off gifts like that, and I suspect I'd get more than a few nastygrams if I tried.

Mine's particular in the sense I had a few things done to it. A couple of signatures in fact. Well, that and the fact I actually have two film strips, not one. (The other's just Kotori)

Basically my copy is in every sense 'I cheated the line significantly' but that's due to my history with some of the people working at NBGI.

That applies for the retailers, I think customers can do what they want with it.

I opened mine!
It's the scene where Azusa and Takane are looking at fortunes.
I'm content.

I envy the person who can throw ¥111,500 at a filmstrip. Must be loaded.

Fast forward one year, and the limited first-runs might be in used game shops going for like 6000 yen or something.

Maybe the seller is auctioning off the game in parts - here's an extra, here's another extra, here's the BD, and here's the game. He could probably fund his gaming for the rest of this generation and the next...

I got my game today too!  :)

Now I need a PS3.  :-[

My film strip thing is of Yukiho freaking out in her chair in the restaurant when she was being interviewed.

MINE IS HERE!!!

I preordered mine from YesAsia and I did get a filmstrip. I think I got the same one as you, Yukiho freaking out.

Now... I need to get a PS3 to play it. I'll probably have to wait until I finish my seminar, then buy it for myself as a reward. *sadface* So no Idolmaster 2 until the end of the month.
Trios produced thus far:
StarBlaze (Hibiki, Makoto, Miki)
Moonbeam (Takane, Chihaya, Yukiho)
GenkiGirls!! (Yayoi, Mami, Haruka)
SweetHoney (Miki, Haruka, Chihaya)
Skip*Beat (Mami, Yayoi, Makoto)

As for me, I'm in the opposite situation. I just got my PS3...now I need iM@S 2...oh well, I suppose the demo will have to do for me for another month. D:

I feel so left out....

I didn't get a filmstrip. :'(
I'd have to say that I'm a new Fangirl for Hokuto Ijuiin and I'm proud of it!!!

Don't feel bad! :D
You still got the game, right?

The conventional American control scheme in this game is great, by the way.
It feels super awkward to play SP now.
