Is Grip a vintage toyline? I've never heard of it nor seen it before. I was just looking at that page in your link, the specimens there look nostalgic! Tekkaman is my favorite one there.  zozo-magengar |

Great job on the Grip section Stephan! When do you have time to work?! ;D I suppose I'll have to start pulling my weight around here Edit: Yes, megangar, the Grips are vintage. There are tons of them out there, and for reasonable cash (as far as vintage goes). They are small, but diecast with cool gimmiks. |

Nice work, Stephan! Let me know if you want any pics of the ones I have that you don't. Of course, with the monthly package, you probably have those as well by now. |

@myles ;D I'm getting nervous...more than 2 months YahooAuction wins. @ Bill work all day, update in the night ;D we need your Jumbo Grip's man ! @dylan There are lots of Grips I miss...I think collecting Grip Toys is the pure horror for "completist"...too many Fotos of your HURRICANE POLIMAR Base would be great and I think you have some of the BANKID figures (I have Swan & Bankid Baby) magengarThese little Grip figures are great. The made nearly all cool figures licensed by Takatoku, Bullmark, Nakajima, etc...but no "Popy-licensed" characters. So, no Mazinger  Grip is also famous for their Matchbox'esque car models etc. Get them for "...for reasonable cash " is true. You get lots of cool figures for 800-1500yen, BUT prices really went up for many of he scarcer toys: Zaboga Stuff, Condorman base & Car, some Diapolon figures etc Lot of the "scarcer" or "most wanted" stuff coul reach prices 5000 yen & up. I really wanted that Condorman base & car, but 6000 (car) -16000yen (lot of the 2) is hardcore...I wait Getting a Daibaron Bakshin (leg-segment for Daibaron), is as tough as getting a pair of legs for your big Bullmark Daibaron DX...but not that expensive ;D |

Oh Boy! I'm getting a Grip!
Very nice work, and thank you. I only have a few Grip toys, but certainly need more.
Ed, and Myles, thanks for giving the heads up when new updates in various areas are added, so they don't go unnoticed.
Very inspirational to me to also finish up with photo database contributions in other depts as asked. They're a coming, they're a coming...

Ed, and Myles, thanks for giving the heads up when new updates in various areas are added, so they don't go unnoticed. I've been planning to add a running thread on new additions like I did with the old website - not sure why I haven't yet.  OK, here goes... |
