Anyone know a place where I can order a MA-21 Gaogaigar Shisioh Guy and MA-24 Votom Chirico Cuvie at a reasonable price? I've looked on Ebay and I can't even seem to find those two. Any help is appreciated.
Oh, I know this should probably go in the "Wants" section. However, I felt I might get some better help here.
Thanks

No problem at all. I've only just discovered micromen so I've been scoping out the various places that have been selling them  |

The Alien figures made by Takara for the Micro Action Series are notorious for having broken ankles in the package. www.microforever.com/2005AVPaliens.htm If possible, inspect them before buying or ask the seller if they can inspect them for you before shipping. Don't be surprised if you get a broken one anyway or a foot breaks off right after opening it. Mine came broken and, although I haven't tried yet, it looks like I can glue the ankle part back together. I'm not bashing Takara here. I wish there wasn't an issue with these because I like the sculpt and I'd buy many many more if they were solid. Not a big deal if you don't care about a little repair work but if you are looking for a reliable source for an Alien army, I'd look for the snap-together kits made by Hot Toys (?) www.mwctoys.com/REVIEW_031208b.htm I think they are in Microman scale. |

The only problem is that the Aliens snap kits are near-impossible to find nowadays  I'd buy them by the case, if I could. The hot toys mini snap kits are AWESOME. ... and yes, they're roughly microman scale. Deunan and Briarios in this pic are from the Hot Toys Appleseed snap kits series, as compared to Rei and Asuka:  |

I've never checked out the Aliens snap kits but the Appleseed ones are amazing! I wish Hot Toy got more licenses to do more similar figures. I would love to see Tron, Indiana Jones, Dark Crystal and the list goes on. I don't see why 1/6 scale collectors get all the great properties. What about us 3 3/4" collectors?

youd think with the popularity of joes that you would see more in that scale but its not the case, then again the new xmen figures coming out (suck for the most part) but they are doing smaller scale just with out the quality. and those little dudes cost a pretty penny for thier size and quality.
Hmm those snap kits are pretty sweet (but no queen!!) but I do like the micomen sculpt better. I really wanted the predators too though, but sucks if their feet would break off. I wouldnt mind if i could get them cheap but I doubt that will even be possible now!
