Friend of mine in Italy is looking for Jumbos. These are a bit out of my range but right in his. He's not looking for MIB, loose is a little easier to get. Dangard Ace, Voltes V , Sun Vulcan, God Mars, Getter 3. Please PM me for his contact info.
Another friend is looking for a Kingdan Box only, all original!! Serious inquiries please, he just got a MIB Green Ghost... Let me know and I will put you in contact with him. Tom

Now, if you find a Dangard, are you going to let him know? LOL
Would love to have a Getter3, but think that one is above my spending limitation I put onto myself. Don't think there will be any "cheap" fixer uppers to even find.

Dangard may be a little tough to give up!! But, depends on price... Fabio can afford to spend a bit more than I can.

He's definitely not starting small now is he With jumbos like those his best bet would probably be YJ unfortunately Those are jumbos that a collector gets and keeps! Good luck in your hunt bowhntr, you always seem to make things happen so I guarantee you'll get him those jumbos somehow! Any chance Fabio could join up and show us his collection? I've seen some amazing collections come out of Italy.

I can honestly say it's incredible! I have one shot of about half his collection and It took me a while to wipe the drool from my iphone!! I'm not sure why he hasn't signed up here yet. I do know he comes in and reads a lot. For all I know, he may be a member who just reads, there's quite a few of those. I met him on FB through Jumbomania, a lot of the pictures posted with an outside garden scene are his jumbos...

Sounds awesome! Hopefully he does join up so I can see them....I'm not a fan of Facebook and don't even have it and most likely never will. Went out the other night and all my friends were glued to their phones having to respond to each and every Facebook update from every single person they've ever met in life....really disgusted me so I left. (rant over)

On the radio, I heard something that might help. They went out to lunch and put all their cell phones on the table, and the first person who touched their phone had to pick up the bill for everybody!

With all the wants for Jumbos its really surprising Bandai doesnt put new ones out.I realize there are a few new ones.But vintage looking modern toys would solve problems for many collectors,sure it would be 2nd best,but at least you guys could own the characters ya know?Or is this a bad idea?

I would snag them up!! Personally, if they made them like U5 did, replicas with obvious differences, I don't think too many would complain about them!

The problem is, they tried with U5 and I'm guessing that didn't sell as well as they thought it would. I'm also guessing if the Neo Mazinger sold well, we would see others. Due to the size and in the grand scheme of things, small amount of collectors, not sure if it makes any sense for any company to do so. I wonder how Super 7 did with their stormtrooper. Do they still plan on releasing Boba Fett? And yes, I would snag them up as well, especially if they plan on remaking the Robot Factory ones. I always wondered if they can release almost all the characters as soul of chogokin, what stops them doing the same with jumbos, I'm guessing the size is the reason.
