So what exactly is a Lucky Draw exactly? Just the term for a super hard to get item? It sounds like it's something you'd get in a raffle or something.

Yup. I think Tom said it's only the Saint Seiya figure that isn't.

From what I gather, you get a ticket and those who are pulled out of the raffle then have the chance to purchase the figure.

I imagine the CEO of Bandai has this huge vault where he keeps a pool filled with tears of fans and money he's stolen from us where he jumps in and swims like some twisted and sadistic Scrooge McDuck.

What an annoying thing to do. It's not the end of the world or anything but to take a heavily used form of a popular character and make it not only a convention exclusive but a lucky draw post convention is a bit of a dick thing to do.

For how much this form appears in the show, this does feel kinda like a dick move. But oh well, I'm still going to do my best to get it.
I just recently was able to order the Black Iron Man for 5000 on Mandarake, so there's a vague hope that eventually this will be more or less affordable.
I'm sure I won't wait for it to show up for under $80, cuz I'm a sucker for the Gaim Figuarts.
