Any new classic toy aquisitions?

kudos Jim. That is a great alien specimen.

I actually bought them at Walmart...not all of them seem to carry this style, so you may have to hit a couple of them to find them. I think I paid $15-20 each for them.

Where did you get the frames for these? I have all 8 in the set I need framed. I love these posters.

Today I picked up a Gatchaman/Battle of the Planets PVC figure set, made by Yujin, but I'm unsure when it was made. the date 1980 is above the UPC but somehow I dont think it's that old. I paid $20, seemed like a decent deal ($4 per figurine).

Is the 1980 at the end of a series of numbers right above the bar code? If so, that's the price, 1980 yen.

Very excited to have just picked this up! One of my grails!

Nice pick up! I really love this line, and have to keep convincing myself to not start collecting them.

Thanks. I'll look next time I'm there.

Found these at a Bethesda Thrift store. I paid $12.99 each (Dorothy Hamill was only $7.99) but I never find these ladies in the wild.

Great find!

No way!
I was just looking at those online! That one's in superb shape too!
I never see those in the wild. So cool!

To clarify, I didn't find this in the wild, I acquired it from another Matt Mason collector.

Picked these SW figures from eBay recently. I had the 5" Dragun as a kid (although I'm pretty sure I had the first release with two firing fists). I did not have Gaiking, but he seems to be the easiest to find complete and I felt it was a pretty good BIN price so I snatched him up. Man, you forget how massive the jumbos were until you hold one again!

That's fantastic. I love Shogun Warriors. The little guys are pretty affordable, aren't they?

[palitoy]

Oh I loves me some shogun warriors....

[Iron Mego]

The little guys can be found for decent prices. I got one for $24, and the other for $30. The cheaper one didn't come with axes, and was more scuffed up. I should have waited a few days when the $30 came up. But I've seen others on eBay for $200, MIB. Probably first release ones though.

Nice get! Gaiking is one of my favourites, and yours looks pretty nice, complete and with good stickers. The little 5" Chogokin ones aren't too expensive when incomplete and in so-so condition, which is how they are usually found. But if you want minty and complete, or MIB, you definitely have to spend some decent cash on them.
