I've wanted one of these since the 80's but never had a chance to get one. For those that have one could you post pictures of it next to SOC's and other figures just so I can get a size reference. I know it's quite large and prices for even the Matchbox version is up there so if I'm gonna spend those kind of bucks I'd like to see how it would fit in my mostly modern collection. Plus I think this will be the only version of Dairugger for a long time.

dairugger vx dx is one of the largest of the vintage popy combiners. he tops out at around 14 inches and towers over voltes v dx and other larger bots from popy. that may be the reason a jumbo was never made for this guy.  |

GoLion, Voltron III arms were swapped in this picture. Red lion is supposed to be the right arm. Love that DX Dairugger XV.

If it fits it fits!  I swapped Golion's limbs too. But man Dairugger is a beauty! Can't afford him right now. |

you can pick up a loose Matchbox Dairugger XV DX for pretty cheap. i have seen them go as low as $30 and as high as $200. or you can pick up a boxed one for less than $150. There is always an abundant supply of these on ebay. especially if you search for Voltron instead of Dairugger. Dairugger is an awesome bot and should be in everyones collection. The one main drawback of this figure is he is much taller than most of his peers. So he now becomes the measuring stick for how high to set your shelves.

Yeah I've noticed a lot on there but most are pretty worn with broken fists or the two small wings missing from the head. Man I remember mint in box Dairuggers going for $200 a few years back with MIB Matchbox versions going for around a $100. I could just kick myself for not picking one up.

the thing i don't understand is why the popy golion jumbo machinder never came with a blazing sword like the ljn voltron giant commander did.
