Congrats! I found one of those last year for a really good deal as well. I could not believe it. It is just amazing what one can find out and about. I am constantly amazed at the neat finds and cannot wait the next day to see what tomorrow brings.
I think a lot of folks are being forced to clean out their attics/basements during these troubling time for some. Sucks for them in a way....On the other hand though it is good for the collectors/treasure hunters.Comment

I'm a fan of Henshin Cyborg figures, and recently decided to start looking for some of their 8" UK cousins released by Denys Fisher. So far I got this Muton figure, and the Amaluk outfit (which is being worn by an LJN figure. You need to remove the hands and feet to get the boots and gloves on, so Megos can't wear these). I'd really like to get the X-Akron outfit, as I'm a fan of the Japanese robot that the outfit really depicts, Red Baron. I don't know how difficult/expensive it will be to get that and the other items I still need, but it's fun to start collecting a new line (even though I really shouldn't be!)

Not really toys, but if you dig the Hal Foster inspired stuff in Wednesday Comics, you'll dig the art in these:

I never had much inclination to collect it but after doing the updates on PS, I had to get a boxed Cyborg, it's just too cool.Places to find PlaidStallions online: https://linktr.ee/Plaidstallions

Thanks, and let's just say that I'm currently in the market for an additional bookshelf, if I can find somewhere to put it.
Very addictive, I just wish the stuff was a bit easier to find. Nice one on the boxed Cyborg. These guys have really neat box artwork, so I wouldn't mind picking up boxed ones too somewhere down the line. And I really appreciate you having a nice section on this line on PS. I've been searching, but can't find much detailed info on these guys. It looks like there was a nice site dedicated to them at one time, but it now seems to be gone.Last edited by cjefferys; Aug 3, '10, 5:12 PM.Comment

About a month ago I slipped out to a toyshow and not only bought this beauty but got it from a mueum member Andrew AKA Haggis.

I think you might be thinking of visibleinnards.org :: Index
and if you have questions Guyx1 is very knowledgable, as is neutronx.
in related news (related only because I keep them inside the same cube in my Ikea Detolf), I picked up a boxed Pulsar and a boxed Hypnos in a semi hidden ebay auction for the price of $35 combined.Last edited by 4NDR01D; Aug 6, '10, 10:53 PM.Comment
