Jumbo Machinders question

[cjefferys]

Sounds like Great Mazinger (released as both Mazinga and Great Mazinga in the US). You have one of the US versions released here by Mattel as a part of their Shogun Warriors line. Those ones aren't as expensive as the original Japanese versions released by Popy, but are still cool in their own right (FYI, the Japanese Jumbo Machinder version of your toy had two fists, not a missile firing left hand, that's the main difference).

Mazinga seems to be the most common of the 24" Shogun Warriors. His value would depend on condition and completeness. If he still has a complete set of missiles, that's a big plus. But sorry, at any rate he wouldn't be as valuable as the Japanese Jumbo Machinder version, but give me some more info or a pic and I (or others) can give you a ballpark figure.

On the thread about the most expensive toys to collect, Jumbo Machinders were listed as being very rare and valuable. I had absolutely no idea what a Jumbo Machinders was, so I looked them up on ebay and nothing. On google I found a few pictures of them and now I know exactly what they are. I have one of those. Is there anywhere that I can find out how much the one I have is worth? It's the guy with a fist on one hand that holds a sword and the other hand shoots rockets that are stored on his shoulders and legs (don't know if that narrows it down, that may describe 30 of them!)
