 Re: Toygraph Space Troopers
Nope - that's Mars Attacks.... that TOPPS gum card ala 1960's. These are 20 years prior.

 Re: Toygraph Space Troopers
for those who passed on this or are in the know, how does one get this for the next time they release one?
I really want this...would trade pretty big for it, or buy...it's such an amazing figure...
I saw one on das Bay last week...thought I didn't check how much it went for...

 Re: Toygraph Space Troopers
If I remember right it went for around 80. Not bad IMO I was expecting it to go for more.

Different coloured suits Different weapons (if the weapon is loose) Dead troopers etc
The word I got was that there are several different arms being produced. Apparently the weapon is attached to the arm. Three of them will be released at the end of this month. Also, there are several different troopers being made, including a robot. Mark Nagata has been asked to design one as well. Right now sales are limited to Japan, but an overseas version made be available in the near future.

 Re: Toygraph Space Troopers
Whooaa... I like the blue and red ones. Anyone here want to sell theirs I've heard the original set sold on ebay for a sickly amount of dough.

 Re: Toygraph Space Troopers
These did get released today, unfortunately I just found out and they sold out 2 and half hours ago! Damn it! I got to start reading Baikin's blog more...I want one of these badly! I had pics ready to post but in preview it was quite obvious 2 needed to be resized- and I'm out the door to work. Sorry.
