Sorry for the bad pic. At work and the camera and lighting here sucks. Dr Pepper can for size comparison. He stands about 23 inches. Right arm is some kind of shark, while the left arm is a lion or somesuch cat. The legs are kinda generic, while the head is a bird. He has a grab handle on his back so an imaginative kid could fly him around or do battle without dropping him. Not much articulation, other than the arms can rotate completely around as well as the head can turn. The ball thing on his chest opens to reveal a spherical compartment. The only markings on the toy are BVS Bandai 2002 and Made in China. Kinda looks Power Rangers or related. Anyone?  |

Yes, that's the Power Rangers Senpuujin Jumbo - forgot the American name (Lightning or Thunder megazord from the Ninja Storm show). You are missing the wheel around the left arm (the lion's mane) that spins. Inside the chest is supposed to be a red Power Ball - it holds weapons and such in the show.

You need to go to one of their "Thrift Stores". These are usually run by volunteers that have no idea what things are worth. It is more like a treasure hunt. Nice find, better, yet nice price.

No idea, is right. The thing had no tag, and the girl did not want to sell it to me. I gave her a line about how much my kid loves robots and he would love this and maybe she could ask her supervisor. I guess the "kid line" worked. They were sympathetic to my plea and made up the price on the spot. I quickly paid and got to steppin!  Score! |
