 Re: Toygraph Space Troopers
Nope, significantly higher "retail" on some than other places they turned up later at "retail" I never factor in after market. Though its fun to pick up the flavors of the weak, the week after from bst. Crab Rangoon wrote: joshuajh wrote: audiodifficulties wrote: Yep I got screwed a few times on retail with these already
im not sure i understand what this means. how did you get screwed? I believe he means he paid retail price on them, and then had remorse due to crashing aftermarket pricing that they could have been had at.

 Re: Toygraph Space Troopers
I'm pretty sure it was just the Garg characters that came w/ legs.

 Re: Toygraph Space Troopers
To further clarify ...the Gargamel x charactics collaboration toys come with the legs or lower torsos (deathra, zags, etc)
The charactics ones (hedorah, godzilla etc) on the other hand do NOT come with the leg attachments.

 Re: Toygraph Space Troopers
Yup, I believe only the Zegoran Racers have their respective bottom half. And these came out nice, especially the painted one:

Yeah, I meant all the little guys in the cars, and my original thought of the tanks/planes was right - I just got mixed up in statements sounding one way or the other in here. Anyhow, the Zeg/Zeg GID racer also has a bottom half? I've never seen it assembled sans car... anyway, back on topic When do we get a Trooper driving a car...

 Re: Toygraph Space Troopers
Are the new pink troopers SuperFestival48 special releases? I only ask because on the "Limited Items" section of the SuperFestival page, under Astro Zombies, these (and the UFO) are listed in what appears to he AZ's show-special offerings. Now I dont know if AZ has their hand in all of the Troopers releases, but if not, then surely their involvement could be part of why they are $70 a pop? Just guessing
