At that high price, scoring a jumbo like That is like running head-first into a rubber I-beam on Jerome Avenue (the Bronx). ;D

Don't know the buyer,but yeah, gonna be one of a few 'hardcore" guys. According to the Jumbo regulars, it is silly rare, as the only known bootreg of the 1st version Maz from South America in that color. I'm glad I'm not an intense completist, hahaha.

I'm sure it Haaad to have been bought by a Hardcore collector...
...for an ugly color, I can't picture it to be a "collector's Holy Grail".
Ok, I guess it is for what it is... ya don't see jumbo Mazzies in That color scheme every day, and for its color scheme it is unique-- --nothing fake about it, looking up closely I can see it was molded with those colors, and the sculpt looks like an original Popy type, so I guess that makes it an original. Just a Weird original, at most. lol

Yeah I've seen one other crappy image on the web before. Maybe on JumboLand? I think Matt Alt mentioned it. This thing may be even more rare than the Garada K7. Wonder if it was he (Franck) whom won it?

A quick question for Scott22.....
bro, What is that munchy thing in your avatar? ;D
(matter of fact, DO NOT answer... it's fun to look at and try guessing what it is, so just keep it a mystery.) ;D

What are you talking about? This is a Venezuelan bootleg of the Popy Mazinger Z in sh*t colors. A crappy bootleg might I add... Nothing original about it.

Basically, it appeared on the cover of an old mag making out with a doll. Since then, it was questioned whether it really existed and could be had. After much searching and time, some showed up. Dave K. has one. As he noted on another forum, this is the first time one of these has appeared in a public auction, so the hype was at an all-time high.

I should've made myself more clear: By "original" I meant that this jumbo doesn't look like it was Painted in those colors. I had already known it was a bootie. Why in Those colors, I dunno. For a bootie, the maker did a helluva nice job duplicating the shape of the mold. I'm just as puzzled as anyone else here as to why this one sold for that much money, and who would pay That much money to get That bootie. ;D zozo-mag "--nothing fake about it, looking up closely I can see it was molded with those colors, and the sculpt looks like an original Popy type, so I guess that makes it an original.
