 Masudaya Talking Spectreman
This is a 14" reissue...for $99. Worth picking up or is that too much?
Thanks!

I've got a few of those repro talker dudes - I can't speak for this one in particular, but many of the other repro talkers go for about 2200 to 3800 yen on yja. They're very common and cheap (i just got the kikaider repro talker for, like, 2800 yen it's a great, very substantial piece).
So my guess is you should be able to find this on YJA for about 1/3 third of the price (although you have to factor in paying the buyer's commission, shipping, etc.).

id say hold out for a better deal. most of the talker repros pop up for way cheap if you watch for a bit.

thanks! I nearly jumped on it until I saw the reissue bit...figured that it was meant to look older than what it really was.

You should hold out for a original Talker CCPFan. They have a little more character. Usually you can find them on YJA for 2000 yen and up at times

yeah , i would say $99 is too much . an original is around that price . then you need to get the cockroach talker . picked up a couple of original kamen rider talkers on e bay and both were under a $100 .
