That wasn't Bluefin. The only SDCC exclusives that came out in Japan previously weren't actually Tamashii products but some of their Gundam kits - Derringer is huge into gunpla and actually brought this up recently that this year's exclusives are simply more of last year's exclusive kits, including the pink Bearguy. Maybe some of their earliest releases came out in Japan too.

You're thinking of some retailer that was offering Kaoru Shinken Red and Kamen Rider Joker as "exclusives" last year. Those are a bunch of overpriced imported stock, not licensed exclusives.

Actual Bluefin exclusives consist of alternate decos of existing figures. At best you might see some remolded parts or extra accessories.

By the way, Super Shinken Red was a retail figure. It wasn't one of the aforementioned "exclusives" from that retailer and would on all counts make for an incredibly lame convention exclusive.
