Why the price increase?
Is it that much bigger than the previous dragons (which were all too small by the way - not that it stopped me from buying them)?
Also i would ask you to consider to make them available to non-case buyers (at full price) like the D&D Icons dragons are.
That way you would sell many more of them to collectors.
I mostly buy 2 bricks and don´t always get the gargantuan mini.
Thx

The case incentives are always on sale individually after a period of time - which might be when the next case comes out but they always are eventually.
Thanks for your answer but as i live in germany it is to expensive and troublesome for me to order these later.
At the beginning my local dealer got the case incentive minis separately from the cases and i bought the "Rune Giant", "Gargantuan Blue Dragon" and the "Gargantuan Skeleton Dragon".
Then i didn´t get the "Gargantuan Green Dragon" (or any "Legends of Golarion" minis as the order got lost somehow)
but "Demon Lord Deskari" and the 8 "Wrath of the Righteous" minis booster packs worked out again.
After that i didn´t get the "Gargantuan White Dragon" even though i bought 8 boosters of "Reign of Winter".
Now i´m set to get 16 "Lost Coast" boosters but no "Shemhazian Demon".
That´s kinda sad as i (and some others) would buy all the gargantuan minis if you could order them seperately.

Having seen the Gargantuan Red Dragon in comparison to the Shemhazian Demon on some Gama Trade Show photos i can´t understand the price increase of $10 - the Shemhazian is much more massive and has lots more colours.
So why does this cost 50 bucks - the Gargantuan Silver Dragon (sold seperately)from D&D Icons 2 - Elemental Evil was $29.99!!!

Wouldnt they make more money if they made it more readily available?

Keeping them scarce and using them as an incentive for (predominantly retailers) to order a case may result in lower profit on this specific figure, but probably brings in much more than it loses in increasing sales of the main product (the cases).
How do I preorder this?
I am a Case subscriber. When I add the dragon to my cart, it says I *MUST* add a case to the cart to complete the Order. There *WILL* be a Case in the Order that is ultimately made at subscription time. I do *NOT* want two cases. My wife would kill me.
Second issue: When I put this in my shopping cart, I do not get the case subscriber discout.?
How do we remedy these issues?

I asked about this recently. I believe, if a case is in your order via subscription, and you said you wanted case incentives when you subscribed, the Gargantuan Red Dragon will be automatically included.
So you don't need to order it at all - it's included, discount and all. I'd check over your subscription though, if you can.
Hope this helps. :)
Updated with photos!

When you subscribed did you select the case only option or did you select the case and the incentive option? If you selected the case and the incentive it is an auto add on. If you are worried it didn't get entered right call Customer Service, they can help.
When will this be available for non subscribers?

Typically, Paizo make promos available once the next case has been released. (At this stage, they need to keep them in stock in case someone signs up for a subscription commencing with the Dungeons Deep set).
The Rusty Dragon is the next set, due to release in January 2016. So my guess would be that these will be available sometime in February.
It is. I ordered mine last month and was able to get it in my cart without requiring any other purchases.
Aw man. A fantastic opportunity lost.

I know it's not much comfort, but I recommend keeping an eye on eBay. You might be able to get one yet, hopefully at a price that isn't too ludicrous.
Also, try local game stores. It's recent enough that they might still have one behind the counter.
Don't give up yet! ^_^
Nooooooooooooooooo! I had it in my cart, but couldn't get it ordered in time.
Most of the out of stock minis say Unavailable, but this one says Out of Print. Is there a difference? Does Out of Print mean there might be another print run? I'd really really like one, but the secondary market apparently doesn't exist for this mini. I've checked amazon, ebay, and any other site I can think of. There are none at reasonable prices.
Would love to see a reprint of this! Secondary market prices are tenfold... So any chance this will come in reprint?
Yes, there will be a reprint soon, but you'll have to get your paint brushes out, because it will be in the 'Deep Cuts' unpainted line.
Painting mine now.

Huzzah! WizKIds has announced a (second) reprint of this product with an estimated release date October 6, 2021. (Yes, that is in the past. We just heard.)
