    Definitely a fine looking figure you picked up there Jason. Excellent Toygraph. It's a pity we don't see too many of these toys changing hands anymore, and hence also relatively few photo shares. I like the contradiction in the composition of a spacesuit/robot and a villainous team member or nemesis (per the logo).

    @ledmirageb4 - You sound as if you might be serious. If so, please leave this message board and never return.

    Thank you!

    Well now. If this were the old board, I would guess (?) that that was meant to be a PM. I don't even know how to take it. As informative contribution? ridiculous flipping attempt? random phishing? I dunno, but hopefully we can get some - helpful - clarification on the matter.

    Hey , everyone flips a toy if they need money. I need the money to pay my bills man. I got to pay rent, pay food, my income not like a CEO. But anyway. I was just kidding around with all you guys. If I was to sell it. I would put it up on ebay anyway. This figure is quite rare and hard to get. So anyway . thanks for tell me to leave. Look at gorilla jus on ebay . One just wwent for 2900.00.. Man thats flipping and people are insane to pay that amount to buy it. Good for the seller .

    And also look at mandarake. That whole site is based on flipping. Why you think a toy is worth that much and how would you know without flipping. Your gonna keep your toys to death if you have a serious health problem. if I had cancer, I would sell everything and use the money for my medical bills. Everyone has the right to do anything with the toy. I could burn it up and not sell it. Its my right. I'm a newbie in this forum but trust me. I not a newbie to toys.

    Here we go again with the user that doesn't get how the community here works. Read the FAQ, @ledmirageb4 and save us all the flipper convo that's going to take place here.


    Also, my toygraph gameras are some of my fav toys.

    I have them all, every single one that has ever been made and will be made. It will go to my grandchildren and their children's children and so on. They will tell stories about how their grand pere fought the war and won and say thankee and do a dance as the day turns purple and the Graf flows out of every cup.

    That or they will flip the lot and do more with the money than I have so far.

    Either way it's one hell of a cool toy.

    While I disagree with pretty much everything that you said, I am just disappointed that, rather than coming here with a great response to a question, and offering some very helpful information on the toy and its background, your only reply is: RARE. (like majorly rare. we are talking super super über rare) Also, give me me boatloads of money and it can yours.

    And that's fine. But surely you can understand how that is going to come off. Particularly because you have never posted here before. Could you not, say, tell us something about the toy, why in fact it is so rare, how many are out there, why Toygraph did this particular toy, why it is special to you, etc.? It is great if you got a toy you like and are happy because you 'scored' but hopefully it also has some other value to you other than the potential resale price - it is THAT appreciation which this entire board is founded and focused on. So please, come here and share pics, talk about [rare] toys, and enjoy them. But understand the context and audience.

    Mostly though, I am just very disappointed that one of my favourite threads on the entire board has now been coloured by this discussion.

    I've never seen these customs before. What head is that on the red and yellow one?

    @boon velvet - Both were official releases to Mandarake Grand Chaos shop.

    The following 2 were released as a 1 year anniversary to Mandarake Grand Chaos shop in March/April 2009. Both were limited to 30 pieces.

    The Red Soul version was also release as an exclusive only to Mandarake Grand Chaos shop. It would have been released after the above 2 figures. So sometime after April 2009 to late 2010. Most likely in 2009. This Red Soul head may have been design and sculpted by Daisaku Araki. He is credited by Kajimoto as design and sculpting new heads for the space trooper series. Also credited for the space troopers series is his Masashi Nagano who is Toygraph chief sculptor and designer.
    [​IMG]

    All three of these figures were part of a new series named Chaos Planet created specifically only for Mandarake Grand Chaos shop. Mandarake actually contacted Shuuji Kajimoto first in 2008 about this project. Mandarake and Toygraph had plan to do a running series. It was Kajimoto decision to separate the Mandarake releases from his normal Death Climax Space Trooper series by renaming the series Chaos Planet (playing off the name of Mandarake Grand Chaos shop name).

    Ahh, how I miss Toygraph. Picked up this nifty Matango racer that I have been after for a long time. Zoom zoom!

    Thank you for that excellent post, Anthony. When I begin to question the value of SB at times, it is wonderful to still have knowledgeable people willing to share like yourself here who keep the true spirit of community going.

    I was hoping to get mister uber-rare all huffy by calling them customs, but even so - the extent of my knowledge with these was only that they were Mandarake releases. I echo what @ultrakaiju said. Thank you, @chimply.kaiju. That was enjoyable.

    And if anyone has a close-up of Red Soul's head, please share.

    All I know about Space Troopers is I overpaid on my first one, total rookie mistake many years ago but they were white hot upon release. I guess there are worse things you can over pay for, at least I got my favorite version Astrozombies VX (his head glows and he's purple!):

    I've always wanted the Mizaru ape face version.
