I've always liked that smaller mini 'flying' variant so much more than the Popy minis.

Have we gotten to the point where those minis are worth more than the price of gold for their weight? :lol:

There was never a removable mask KR Amazon made as far as I'm aware .. I think some one has put KR head on on a 73 Bandai Amazon and sacrilegiously cut off Amazons head as the plug vinyl is gone :evil:

Scott it also looks weird to me this Amazon Rider, but I thought it was a generic head for various figures from Bandai, as Bullmark using the same head for the giant figures with removable mask.

Best regards!

There could never be ...or should never be... a removable mask Amazon Rider. If I'm not mistaken I believe Amazon Rider actually is creature unto itself. No mask to remove. He's all Amazon creature when he transforms. :shock:

Oh shoot, now I would pay some good Yen just to be able to take a ride on that. :mrgreen: Shame that you don't see more Getter Mars stuff. But what a great thing that ride would make. Just goes to show how the strangest - and coolest - things show up for auction in Japan. So did it actually sell then?

No one really bid for the Jetter Mars. That was the starting price but did not receive offers, is a shame because it is a great piece and is one of those occasions I want to live in Japan. I also love to take a ride on it :mrgreen: .

Agree with you Kerk1 looks in very good shape!

I know one went for 271000 last Christmas:

I could not understand how this Giant sized Silver Mask went for 271000 yen when there was another that went for only 35000 yen in the same condition. Then I realized that it was the insane 20 inch (50cm) toy not the Giant 15 inch size. Knew of Mirrorman in this size but not Silver Mask. Wow:

I believe Brian was looking for one of these and since he missed that one maybe he grabbed this one?

I hope Brian has scored this one, it's a great piece. If anyone has one and could share a picture of this giant Silver Kamen next to other figures to see the difference in size I would greatly appreciate it.

This was the one from about a week ago? Or was there another that ended more recently?

This legit? Ended surprisingly low. I took a stab since it was worth the chance at that price, but I did not realize it was not an ongoing auction (rather it was a fixed time, so my bid did not reset the clock). It threw me off and ended before I checked back on my status. I don't recall seeing a flesh Daimajin before, and I could not find anything online other than ultrakaiju's reference to a bootleg, which I assume is a newer release. The paint job looked horrid, which gave me pause, but the feet looked vintage.

I know that don't have nothing of strange, but you do not see it very often.
I think Lixx can know more about this piece.

Like Jim said that's a bit of an outrageous price for this toy!I haven't looked in awhile but I do recall a year or two ago it popping up quite a bit. I've seen them going as low as 6000 yen, the highest I think was 11000. So this 40000 yen price tag is sort of an anomaly. Either a bunch of bidders really wanted it, shill bidding, impatience. take your pick. What was the starting price?

I haven't been looking for awhile is the market drying up? Or more competition, or both? Kind of makes me regret not going for the one that ended up at 6000 yen lol.

it appears to be the 1983 flesh bootleg that was painted.

The one Vintagevinyl take for $50 it's a bargain compared with those prices.

The initial price for this auction was: 1,000 yen.
