So I spotted these two guys recently (Red and Gold Baron FMF), and they appear to me to be rare, as I had never seen before. Made by Bandai in 1994, before SOC.... Any thoughts, or anyone here at RJ collect or know anything about? Five inches not very large, appears to have much articulation, including fingers, very pose-able? I found both mint in box in America, but 250 each, seems a bit steep for 5 inch robots, even though you have a make offer option, perhaps one could get both for 300. I really don't know if it is something I am interested in just yet. Perhaps one of you guys are in search for it, if so easily found with Popy search....

Waaaaay overpriced. I don;t own these and have not seen them in person, but I believe you can get these for about $60 or under. Can someone else chime in on this?

I figured that was the case Kingboy, just never know if something is ultra rare. I am sure he will come down in time, when they don't move, 120 bucks for set seems about right for only 16 years old, and being that small, mint boxes complete or not....

Yeah, Kevin, those figs are way cool. I have the Red one, as most guys do, but the gold is just a beaut too. The one s you find are probably BIN, and will sit, and sit, and sit, and... They do come up for auction every so often, and if you ask, many of the HongKong, or Tokyo sellers may just have one, but not listed, and be glad to make you a deal.
Sellers do keep watch, and ride each wave of hubub, about certain item trends. Right now, those are not so "rare" as just probably not being bothered to list, since not a lot o' HYPEZ!!
But now that you've asked...just watch ebay now, haahaa!
I'd agree with Myles, $50 - $100 is what they'd bid up to. Plenty in the USA, just have to dig em up. There's some commentary in old threads I'll try to dig up.
