The first "vintage" toy I bought was my neighbour's Mazinga at his yardsale, I still have him. It seemed fitting to get this one. The border guard obviously wasn't a collector "you drove all this way for that?"

I had the perfect spot for him or so i thought, he's too big.

how much was he? :grin:

Got this stuff in a trade from a new contact I met at a swap meet. Had gotten rid of alot of my transfomers because of a space issue and now am head first at trying to reaquire some of my childhood ones. Id say not bad for 8 three and three quarters joes that I dont even miss.

Nice Mazinga Brian. Did you get him at the Clarance fleamarket?

I know, I think I gave myself Jumbo fever again after posting the Bandai Museum thread. :smiley1: I'm getting myself ready to put other toys temporarily aside to finally complete my collection of the Mattel Jumbos at least. I still have my childhood Mazinga, but I want to pick up a boxed one, along with a couple others I still need. I'm already researching prices on ebay. :yes: Where the hell I'm going to display them all is another story. Time to rethink my toyroom setup. :googly:

Purchased off ebay "BIN" for 3.99 a complete boxed 6 million dollar man Mission control center

You know it, it sure wasn't superflea. ;)

Yeah, I guess that was a dumb question. :smiley1:

Just scored a boxed J Jay Armes doll for a great price on ebay. Wanted one of these forever, although I can't justify it!!

Nice Mazinga B, that Bandai Museum post might have started something!

I recently finished my Mattel Shogun Warriors boxed set when I picked up a Goldorak box:

I haven't had a chance to get them all together for a family photo yet, will post when I do.

These little overlays came with the Sketch, pretty cool, don't recall seeing them before.
