What's your current "Holy Grail" toy?
Just curious what single item people are most obsessed with acquiring right now...

I've been craving some more Masudaya talking vinyls or the reissues (characters like Kikaida, Mirrorman, Barom 1, etc). The "Holy Grail" would be a missile firing vinyl MechaGodzilla.

I know it isn't vinyl and may not even spark an ounce of interest from anyone but myself, (any maybe Creevox, MRH, or BHF) but last week I finally acquired my personal Holy Grail... A Funko Glow Count Chocula Wacky Wobbler. This was given away as a prize at the first Funko Fun Days in Universal Studios in 2002 and has become one of the most (if not most) saught after elusive wacky wobbler that funko ever made. There were only 48 produced. They have fetched anywhere from 500 - 1200 dollars in the past. I recently got mine for just over 300.00 from Mike Becker's (COF of Funko) Brother. The collest part is I had Mike Becker sign the base. There may only be 48 of these but probably very few have Mike's signature.
I should be getting him in the next day or two!

I don't know... I was looking for handpainted Pushead stuff, but that was taken care of at SDCC, so I don't think there's any single thing right now...

that's a really nice figure. I have the regular Count and the other vintage vynil one as well.
right now I have my sights set on the mosugon but I'm hoping Gargamel will make my dream within arms reach.

I would say the Gargamel Dogora, but my desire to own that toy doesn't even approach my lust for the Crystal Kaiju before I found those.
The Bullmark Bello Bello and Gari Gari would be nice, but I really don't feel like spending the money for them.
Is "nothing" an acceptable answer? ;p

It's really nice. One of the best Bullmarks ever in my opinion.
Mine's always been the big Bullmark Missile firing Zaboga. That toy is awesome and I should have stolen it from the kid I knew that had it.
I also want, like Roger. that pesky Gargamel Dogora.

Probably OT for this board but I really want the Bullmark DX Diapolon trio of Header, Legger, and Trang.
Other than that I've managed to get most of my grails.
Woo-hoo for me!

Wow. I like Roger and all but that's pushing it a bit . . .

Wow, I remember seeing that cartoon on TV when I was a kid... they had a subtitled version of it on channel 20 like 30 years ago.

Short term: gonna grab a couple of the upcoming re-released Marmit Darkrons in unpainted kit form for customizing.
Long-term: I got a one-track mind, and it's firmly set on Eye Scream's 22" Garamon. November can't come soon enough.

Maybe not that hard to find, but I'll have to save up for a bit:
