Hey all,

I'm on evil-bay window shopping. I have been eyeing a 9" Mirrorman Darkron with Darkron baby. It's a Bullmark re-issue. Bin price is at $80.00 plus shipping from HK. I'm not well versed on going prices for these being
a bit of a Fresh Meat so the question is basically. Is this an OK price or is it on the high side? It's loose but still comes with bag and header card. The seller goes by Minicupid on the bay.

I would only buy from Minicupid as a last last last resort

WORD!

My last 2 orders from minicupid were damaged. Almost like she delibretly chose to sell peices w/ chips and flaws, just to get rid of them.

I would not do business w/ minicupid again.

Well looks like I just dodged a minicupid bullet. Thanks guys. Too bad, she has alot of really neat items. I guess it explains why alot of her stuff is still available. Still tho I'd be interested in some info about the Darkron fig.

i'm sure you'll be getting a PM soon.....

I'm glad to get this info on minicupid, too- I've been eyeing a piece she has for a very good price for some time now- no wonder it hasn't sold.

Robert, that Darkron was released by Tsubraya Communications (now Yamanya) a few years ago, and it's actually based on the old Bullmark Darkron mold. I think they've released it in four colorways.

minicupid's price for that particular version would be within reason if it were new in an unopened bag. Lately, tho, I have seen a few of the Tsub/Yama 'krons, MIP, go for less on YJA.

Here's a link to Darkron auctions (there's currently a vintage Bullmark version of the figure in question up):

Thanks Ungawa,
YJA looks like a great place to score some neat vinyl. I just need a way around the Japanese Kanji thing.

I've bought from minicupid before with no problems.
