:)I wonder if anyone can help. I was rummaging through my old stuff and came across a toy that I picked up in Italy 1981-82 its by popy and the toy is called denziman daidenzin. It's a cast iron and plastic model with all his extra fists,missiles and weapons. Did not play with it as a kid so I think it was out of it's box maybe about 10 times. So I was just wondering if this model is worth anything on todays market?

Welcome to the site. Yes, it looks like it was issued specifically for the Italian market, and was manufactured in Singapore (as per the box), like many of the non-Japanese marketed Popy toys. I'm curious - does it say Singapore anywhere on the toy itself? As to pricing, I think my original estimate is correct. If you were to sell it, you might have better luck with calling it Daidenjin, the name it was commonly sold as in the US under the Godaikin line (assuming you're in the US). However, I'd naturally say you should preferably hold on to it and appreciate it for the awesome toy that it is.

Hey, Welcome to RJ, Greenelf1967! That specimen is way too cool to part with, especially since it's been with you all that time in such good condition. I second Kingboyd's opinion, you should hold onto it. zozo-Magengar
