    `Grail` pieces from toy lines

    Most of us dabble in toy lines other than Mego. I`m just wondering what are considered `grail` pieces from the stuff out there, Mego included.
    Grail pieces can still be fairly easy to get but are usually the last purchase on a list.

    Some that spring to mind are...

    Tie Bomber from SW die cast series
    Blue Snaggletooth and VC Jawa from vintage SW
    Humanoid from the Mego Black hole line
    Venus Space Probe from SMDM

    Feel free to add anything you can think of.........

            Tim,
            is that AHI or Funstuf. I thought there was a "grappling hook" based on the Spidey Web Shooter.

                    Bill,

                    The Batman Grappling Hook is pretty much like the Funstuf Web-Shooters and others but it was put out by Ahi. I've seen one in about 8 years.

                      Takara 1984 Godzilla action figure with 12 male figure inside the suit.....

                      Medicom also made this figure but is more affordable.

                      Medicom version

                          I've been wanting to get the Takara one for quite some time. Great toy. I have the Medicom '64 Godzilla, so that will have to do in the meantime.

                          To continue with Godzilla toys, some grails would be the 1960's Marusan Plamodels (plastic model kits), especially the Giant Godzilla one, but the standard Godzilla one, along with Baragon and Ebirah, are also insanely rare and expensive, espeically MIB (we are talking thousands of dollars each).

                          For Godzilla vinyls, grails would probably be the Bullmark Mechagodzilla and Megalon, or for Bandai vinyls, the bronze, large "Great Monsters" version of Godzilla. The Bullmark tin wire-controlled Gigan and die-cast Angilas are also quite pricey and difficult to find.

                          For Japanese toys in general, the Jumbo Machinder Garada K-7 is probably at the top, rarity (maybe 3 known examples in existance?) and price wise. Many of the other Jumbo Machinders are tough and expensive too, especially the villians (in my opinion, JMs would probably be the most expensive and difficult toy line to complete).

                            Jem line- Rockin' Romance Jem Only 5 known to exist so far.

                            I don't collect gi joe but I would say the GI Nurse. I had the chance years ago to buy 2 GI Nurses from a doll shop for 900 for both but didn't take the offer as I knew they were rare but didn't know their worth then of course when I did find out I went back and they were of course gone!
