Nice Raideen stuff KingboyD!

Raideen is a bit underrepresented in my collection.
I only have the Shogun Warriors 2in1, Jumbo etc, but when I see your stuff I'm thinking.....hmm GodBird,
PA-59 Mutropolis Base...very nice.
Especially the Base is cool, all the little details.
Do you have a clue how much (ebay/Y!JP) such a base is today,
boxed or complete loose. A "rough" pricerange?

edit/
found 2 auctions (base) on Y!JP
4600-18000yen

Great Raideen collection there, Myles. Many are on my wanted list, but I always put off buying because they are mostly plentifull and fairly cheap by vintage standards (of course, original Black is the exception for the gokins )

@stephan, I paid about 22k for my deadstock base last year, so 18k is decent for a boxed/complete one.

thx for info Bill!

[KingboyD]

I can't comment, since I got mine loose (I desperately need accessories for this one!). But it does seem to be the most common base of all. I would imagine that you could find it for less than 15K.

Yes, the Raideen toys are mostly pretty common. But the motorcycle one is rare and very pricey. Mine is a plastic toy from the large scale base set.

Ah yes, thanks for pointing out about that bike from the base - forgot about that one.
I think for most common base, it is between Raideen and Zerotester - I also see tons of those loose for dirt.

All I have is the Raideen Miracle Action DX figure. I look forward to
acquiring the SOC Raideen (with all them sphinx-mountain accessories)
hopefully by the end of the year.

Be sure to check out a Raideen base in person. The clam shell base is removable and super heavy/sparkley. Though it is rare it still leaves an impression on me for its uniqueness. -Giant clam shell base....geez....what were the artists smokin'

[JoshB]

Anyone have the Pla-DX Base?

I owe a super huge thanks to Bill for hooking me up with the parts needed to fill the void with my Raideen base! What a difference a few accessories make! Its no wonder bases are so pricey - these things are just too cool.

[laserblast]

Awesome ! That reminds me, I STILL don't have the soc reideen...

[repairtechjon]

Oh, I love that Raideen stuff. Myles, which black versions are those? Is the bigger black one the original, or the GA-09R? Can't remember which has the pinstripes.

[KingboyD]

Unfortunately, that's just The Chogokin. But fortunately its a great piece, regardless of its slightly smaller stature. Damn, I miss that toy line.

[repairtechjon]

Ah, okay, so the little black one isn't THE Chogokin, but rather the CGA capsule sized one?

[KingboyD]

Yep.
