    This is a cool site: http://www.zincpanic.com/
    Info on "Japanese Robot Culture" - but a little hard to get around and find info. Too many menus. Much info though.

    While I'm at it, can anyone tell me about a charcter called Diamond Eye? I am looking to buy a 12" of him, but know nothing about him other than he is from a live action Japanese show of the 70's.

    Diamond Eye, there is not much, only a couple figures.

    Vintage:
    12" henshin cyborg suit
    10" bandai Missile firing vinyl ($$$$ super duper rare)
    5" popy figure
    6" bootleg vinyl

    New:
    Marmit 12" henshin style figure
    wasn't there a 12" baremodel figure?

    No tot sound cheesy, but I do have a spare missile fire, but it has a replacement right arm, and is stil expensive. If you are intrested in it, let me know, other wise, the remaining items shoudl be fairly inexpensive. (35-95)

    Thanks for the toy list Brian! It's the Marmit 12" that I'm looking at picking up.
    He looks an odd character. Do you know much about the show or his enemies or anything. Nothing comes up on the web.

    I'm not hunting down the various figures of this guy, but would love to see your missile guys. Do you have a pic you could show?

    I will try to get a pic for you. They have never made any diamond eye villians. (getting them to make diamond eye is hard enough!)
