I think Aaron Hong is going to like this. Today's Haul

Relatively small haul today. I found a Masterpiece Starscream for 50 bucks. Not a great selection of TFs, though a 35 dollar Godbomber MIB was tempting. I did pick up a Sentai mecha, though. MIB Dragon Caesar. I had the Power Ranger version when I was younger, so I figured adding the Japanese version to my ever growing robot collection wasn't a terrible bet. And at 17 USD, why not?

You found a MIB GOD BOMBER for $35(!) and PASSED ON IT?! I'm shocked that you let such a wonderful deal pass! You can't find any original God Bombers in any condition on ebay unless you're really lucky, let alone MIB! As you can tell, I'm baffled. I would've jumped on that chance like Michael Jackson on a little boy! That MP-03 was a good deal, but wasn't ANYWHERE near getting God Bomber for at least 1/12 of the average auction price!

Does anyone have a sedative? I really need one.

You want it? I'll probably be back at that store on Friday. It'd be around $50 after shipping.

Dragon Caesar?! Didn't think you could get those anymore, even IN Japan.

As for God Bomber - I got that reissue God Ginrai a while back so that's a different story.

Well, it was a hobby shop and they had a TON of sentai mecha. I was tempted on a boxed (I don't know the Japanese name, but in the US it was) Serpentera for 50.

Out of curiousity, is Dragon Caesar worth anything? It's a nice toy, but if I could sell or trade to buy something I actually want, I definately will.

It has its moments. If it turns out that Hot Shot doesn't want it, I'll let ya know.

Daijinryu? That one might be worth it just for the silver flake plastic and electronics that the US version missed.

I don't have any exact figures on hand but it's bound to fetch a lot.

Daijinryu? That's the original MMPR Megazord, right? They didn't have that. Or what the US called Titanus. Shame, because actually having a set of the three would make for a very nice display.

I can't check ebay from work (the only place I have 'net access right now), but I'm told there's one other one with an opening bid of 150 (and no bidders).

Maybe I'll ebay it and hope for the best.

...not exactly. MMPR Megazord = Daizyujin, Serpentera = Daijinryu.

Or Dad as we call him.

That's the one.
