Mine's missing his fist and every time I try to get one they get up to $60 on ebay and since I bought my complete Godzilla for $50 I'm not paying that. My daughter lost the fist somehow in the garden and it never showed up again.
I'm hoping to score another complete one soon cheap.
I also got a complete Uni5 Garada for US$45 which is the best bargain I ever got, cheap because his sickles had crayon all over them which came off easilly with a bit of grunt.
I used to have 13 Jumbos but I sold them in 2001 when I had cancer. I'm going to get Jumbo Boba Fett and I have Jumbo Dairugger on it's way.

Frank, if you're trying to track down the red Gaiking, good luck, man! That one is VERY hard to come by!

But it IS beautiful and totally worth the quest...

Yeah, it seems like the different-colored versions from South America are becoming EXTREMELY popular now...so lots of bidding wars. Which Getter robot did you get? What color is he? And can you post pictures of him? :mrgreen:

midnight26man, great story! One thing that we really enjoy over on the vintage board at TBDX is hearing personal stories like this about folks' actual experiences growing up with particular toys. Great shit!


Thanks, I'm glad you liked my story.

I like to think that those of us that are passionate enough about toys to post about them on the internet have a few in our collections that are really special, you know? Not just as collectibles, but as seriously awesome toys that we loved as children.

That cat is fucked!

I love the Popy Raideen chilling with the Shoguns. That's probably my favorite toy-rendition of the character.

Anyway, Frank, is the Getter Dragon you have a Jugarama (Mexican) release? I know they did a Geta 1.
