Hey,
I'm hoping there are some people better informed on Japanese transformers than I am. I'm trying to price a few old Japanese releases I can buy. One is the "Landcross" set in the box (circa 88 I believe) and the other (which I know is pretty valuable) is Star Sabre MIB - I believe that came out in 89. Anyone have a decent estimate of their values? I'd appreciate as many opinions as I can get.

I've seen Landcross go for as low as 200 recently. Star Saber, depending on the type and condition of the box usually peaks around 300. On two seperate occassions, I've seen them sell MIB for 175. Prices are in USD.

Landcross is easy to land. The reissue came out a little while ago. I snagged one. You might be able to find the Chinese Takara Landcross easier than the Japanese Takara version.
