Awww, did I miss an embedded image of boobies or something??? :P

Anyway, yeah, I totally forgot that the "official" Shogun spelling was Raydeen...fuggin' idjits...

It's funny that we're on this topic anyway because I'm in the process of restoring a friend's launcher. It's a first version Shogun, and the little (round) peg for the Delta Wing snapped off. So he took the launcher apart and mailed me the bit...so now, I'm reverse-engineering it in CAD so he can print out the part via Shapeways. Pretty fun process!

Umm...well, it's a couple centimeters long...so I'm guessing 5-6 bucks? Shouldn't be too much...

thanks for the clarification!

Holy crap! So much for France being on the pacifistic side! These motherfuckers are going to war! :P

[For real, I just hope they're not turning around and trying to flip them as legit vintage missiles...]

So you can pretty much repro any simple part in this manner? Such as the harikens from the Grendizer chogokin or the Crewzer from the Voltes ST?!?!
