    ^^Yeah, some of those actually went for LESS than what they've commanded in the past. It's weird: the good-guy Mobile Suits (well, other than the Gundam) must have been produced in MUCH smaller quantities than the Zeon mecha.

    Wow I suspect that this seller was probably waiting to see where that other mini Devilman ended up before listing. Happens often on YJA.

    Strange. There's a Bullmark logo on it, but the prior one I've seen (loose) came in the Ultra Leo outfit.

    Yeah, you can see the 'Leo' suit version of the set a few pages back,
    http://www.skullbrain.org/bb/viewtopic. ... 31#p872331

    They are really nice, I would love to have even an incomplete of these someday. Sure are pricey toys though. I haven't seen them come up for sale too often, and reckon the price also reflects a bit of their rarity (as opposed to popularity).

    I woulda snagged this for about $100. Not for over ten times that! Ill-proportioned Mach Baron KO (with Mazinger legs). Looks like he was stretched on a torture rack. Crazy price for this loose figure.

    Re: strange or rare yahoo auctions post here (after theyre o

    That is certainly a crazy price, but he is an excellent bootleg. Such an interesting bootleg take on MB. I love that is looks like he is wearing a crown and has some kind of mask on, barely robot at all. And the (mismatched) slim arms and legs, not to mention his relatively smooth and human-like torso just add more to that effect. Goofy, fun, and cool - everything I love in toys. Definitely a toy I would love to have, but, wow, it would be a costly investment. Thanks for sharing it Myles, that is a great one to watch out for.

    Re: strange or rare yahoo auctions post here (after theyre o

    Wow just wow, $17, 614 if the currency exchange is right! That's a whole lotta cheddar. Absolutely beautiful and giant toy though (silver paint mostly intact as well), every time one is mentioned I think of this awesome Toyboxdx Brog entry:

    http://toyboxdx.com/brog/?p=4319

    BTW speaking of Red Baron Robot, does anyone know if this was ever made?:

    Re: strange or rare yahoo auctions post here (after theyre o

    That is definitely a whole lot, but it is also one hefty, amazing toy. Shuckaroony. If I had oodles of cash laying around, I could only imagine spending it on such lovely vintage pieces. Truly a stunner, and would amazing cornerstoning any vintage collection.

    I don't know Lixx, I never saw any more info, but I sure hope, if not yet, that it does. I really like, nay love, that version of him. Great bulky body, perfect amount of detail to smoothness, just excellent attention to quality, but most of all, it is the pupils that just sells it for me. You almost never see a RB painted like that, and it just puts in on a whole other level. Some may not be into the goofy/non-robot look, and prefer a traditional 'robot', which is a totally fair argument, but I think it is exactly what I want to see (now that I have seen it). Amazing. If this gets made, or people have more info, please do share.

    Re: strange or rare yahoo auctions post here (after theyre o

    It's a really beautiful piece, I think I've only seen about three of these figures but only in photo. :(
    I agree with you guys is too much ¥¥¥¥¥¥ for a figure, but I can not blame the buyer to do so. :mrgreen:
    By the way Lixx, thank's for the link :!:

    Re: strange or rare yahoo auctions post here (after theyre o

    Since we shared that bootleg MB/Mazinger mockup, I thought I would post this other one too that I was watching. Not as pricey for this fella, but still a heck of a lot of scratch for a mini figure. I really love this Getter Robo G/'Dragun' actually. he has got completely different proportions to standard figures, and isn't at all like the usual take on robots either. The sculpt has a lot of character, and I love the rounded and long limbs - very costumed humanoid/action figure-like. The head too is just great with its detail. He has an excellent mouth, great eyes, and the blades on his sides are just tops! I can't stop looking at them. I really, really dig this guy. The fact they added in the 'detail' into the surface sculpting, and molded the joints, cape, etc. really makes this toy great. I find these bootlegs seem to be a step above in terms of quality too, compared to the many typical versions we see. Lots of attention to detail, cleaner paint apps, and generally good vinyl. They definitely don't seem like your average 'souvenir shop' fare. I would love to know more about them, but I think even in Japan they must not be very common. I am sure this is a great (hi)story behind them. Side note: looks like this went to a buying service, so if, on the odd chance it ends up in the hands of someone on here, I look forward to hearing more about it.

    I was hoping to win that KR, but it went too high for me. andy, it was posted before in the Cyborg Clear thRead.

    Here are a few interesting ones. Boxed Fireman talker:

    This is just the small common Kikaida transparent figure, but someone had colored in the two body halves. It actually looked really cool since you could still see through the coloring, and the price was up there too for a figure with marker!

    Lol Kingboy now I want to buy an extra Kikaida and do that to one myself! That's a great idea. Almost looks like they dyed the vinyl. Right click save.....

    There was a pink Anguirus that went for a comparable price.

    That Cyborg figure seems to have significant darkening of the transparent parts.
