In the last couple days, I received this junk....

Marmit, Devilman, Chogokin (die-cast)
Pretty nice figure, but nobody does chogokins like Bandai!

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...er/micro76.jpg
Palisades, Micronauts, clear Time Traveler
This will be used for a very strange custom I have in the works.

I already have complete Jesse James and Davy Crockett figures, but I noticed something strange about these two. They don't have articulated ankles like they usually do, and are assembled a bit different. I have never seen them like this. Scored them for super cheap.

MwC, you are a big western toy collector, know anything about this?

Hey, I told Jor that I might overnight in Chicago in my way back from San Diego. Either I will try that or hold for Wizard World.

The Microman, Devilman rocks man, you should definitely pick one up. www.bigbadtoystore.com has them for really cheap.

This Devilman is 6" and mostly made of die-cast.

I've been checking out vintage micronauts on the Bay now too! [img]rolleyes.gif[/img] [img]eek.gif[/img] along with Shoguns!

Oh man, you are so doomed! Once you start collecting Micronauts, it becomes hard to control. Some excellent stuff though.

Do you collect the 3 3/4" and 5" Shuguns as well?

June 24th, 2005, 06:14 PM

I don't have any little Shoguns ........ yet, but yes I'd like to get some [img]smile.gif[/img]

I've missed out on a few cool deal on the Bay before [img]frown.gif[/img] I was [img]mad.gif[/img]

I'll just blame you and Peeker about the Micronauts [img]wink.gif[/img]
I was checking out stuff with the box/packages LOL oh wow that truely is retro 70's the way they have the words and stuff.
I saw some great stuff browsing around though [img]cool.gif[/img]

TCM Hitchhiker

MM4, I would think so, but I have never made it to one. I think Jor has though.

LD, cool man, I might have a 5" Dragun I can spare, don't think he has his axe that launches, but other than that he is in nice shape.

sweet TCM! [img]cool.gif[/img]

need an opinion too I'm keping an eye on this http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...983557529&rd=1 I missed out last week but it did'nt selll so he relisted [img]biggrin.gif[/img] I thought it was a good deal.
June 24th, 2005, 06:46 PM
TCM Hitchhiker

I would say that is a good deal, but the shipping , $10.00, is pretty outragious. E-Mail him and ask him if he will ship it Priority Mail for $4.00. [img]wink.gif[/img]

Check THIS out man!

Kick ass! LOL
I used to have a bop bag as a kid [img]wink.gif[/img] [img]biggrin.gif[/img]
thats pretty friggin cool!

I agree about the other thing... s/h seemed a bit $$ for the size of the fig other then that I thought it was an alright deal.

speaking of OMG prices. maybe I'm just not familiar with the Japanese ones for Shoguns but... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...981702849&rd=1

WTF is that one and his reserve was'nt met! DAMN [img]confused.gif[/img] [img]eek.gif[/img]
June 24th, 2005, 07:24 PM
TCM Hitchhiker

Yeah, some of the Japanese releases are very rare, and command high prices. There were a lot more Shoguns (in all the scales) released in Japan. That is an awesome piece!

Have you seen this page?

June 24th, 2005, 07:36 PM
LittleDevil

Oh, it is going to be quite odd, but I think you will like it. I may be going as far as getting the head for the figure chromed, but am waiting to hear a price quote.

LOL thanks man!

Here is a killer site for Micronauts, if you haven't seen it...

thanks for that site too [img]biggrin.gif[/img]
how are the Palisades ones? [img]confused.gif[/img] are they worth the pick up?

sorry for turning your pick up thread into a micronaut/Shogun Warrior discussion thead [img]tongue.gif[/img]
June 24th, 2005, 08:02 PM
TCM Hitchhiker

lol, no problem man, in case you haven't noticed, I enjoy talking about vintage toys. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

The Palisades reissues are ok, but it depends on what ones you buy. The first series is loaded with breakage problems. The 2nd series is pretty much fine.
June 24th, 2005, 08:05 PM

thanks for the info [img]biggrin.gif[/img]
I guess it'll be go big.. go vintage [img]wink.gif[/img] [img]cool.gif[/img]

I 've been super lucky with ser 1...not a single break that wasn;t caused by my own dumbassness... [img]wink.gif[/img]

I haven't had any problems either so far, but I sure have heard a lot of complaints.
June 24th, 2005, 08:17 PM

yeah, me too...
maybe they just weren't "cool" enough collectors.... [img]wink.gif[/img]
