Lexcars2007,
Mattel Daimos is very common and easy to find. Popy Daimos isn't nearly as common and will cost you a lot more money. There's a few Mattel Daimos JM's on E-Bay currently. Good luck!

Thanks DOE, I'm glad we cleared that up, lol!!
Kitsir, any chance Snowflak wants to sell off any of his remaining Jumbos? If I remember correctly, he has a very nice collection.

Hi bros,
any info in total how many JMs are made by BULLMARK?
I did a little research on Mr Google, I think there are 3 right?
The mekanda, diaplon UFO (whats the correct spelling lol) and one that look like a villian? IS there any more made by BULLMARK?
Bullmark JMs seems to be uniquely colourful and the box art is speechless..
D.O.E ;D

The Danguard I got about 6 years ago. Snapped up a BIN that was pretty reasonable by today's standards (I think it was $400 ish...) The Combattra was a whole ordeal I posted about here years ago. I bought one of YJ but the seller freaked out when he realized I was using a proxy bidder and left negative feedback because I was "attempting to deprive Japan of a national treasure" (Now he's got at least one Jumbo currently on YJ with a disclaimer against foreign bidders). With Combattra being my most wanted at the time (to complete my Marvel trio the way I always dreamed) I too to the boards here and got lucky that a member here was planning on selling and was happy to see it go to a good home  He also had a Sun Vulcan...but my wife would have hurt me if I pulled the trigger on both at the same time LOL... |

Yes Dragonclaw, I know how difficult it is to convince your wife that these 'toys' are worth this kind of money. $400 for a Danguard is a freakin' steal compared to today's prices. That's stinks that the seller didn't wish to do business. What item is the seller on YJ currently selling. There are a few JM's on YJ that I was thinking of throwing a serious bid on but don't want to get jammed up and lose a bunch of $$. I'd appreciate the heads up......Thanks in advance

Knowing my craze for the spazer, bro rodman75 shared this video with me which had me instantly glued on the monitor longer than any megan fox movies. I learn many interesting facts that the SPAZER was actually a mail-to-order item back then. Really salute and envy the guy that own it. Not many left I guess in this condition, with instruction sheet as well. Maybe many has watched this video but I absolutely have to share it here to those that have not. One of the guy actually suggested is there any website that actually keep tracks how many quantity are left in different JM specimens around the world. It will be interesting if any one come out a website like that...then i will know at least how many spazers or daikusaurus are there and at which part of the world..like a tracker LOL thanks bro for the share truly enjoyed it. D.O.E ;D |

Anytime DOE....That's what friends are for:) If you watch the video closely the person makes mention of how much they paid. I think it was somewhere around $10,000usd when it was all said and done!! Insane price, but the buyer obviously could afford to splurge. Good for him and all collectors around the world who score their Holy Grails.

I think USD$10000 cant buy that kind of condition of a spazer in today's market. Well I might be biased but base on ebay closings and YJ...a really battered condition one was sold more than 800k yen if i dont remembered wrongly. So it is a very distant dream for me. Any sellers out there..i dont mind paying USD$10,000 but i might need a 10 months interest free installment plan ;D
D.O.E

Yes, getting a spazer is insane for the price. I figured I will never have the expendable cash to afford an original. So, that is what spurred me to build myself a vacuum forming machine to form custom upper and lower sections of the ship as I don't think someone will loan me theirs to make a mold of it, lol. And trying to cold resin cast it, would take a lot of resin and it wouldn't fit into my 2-1/2 gallon pressure can for removing air bubbles.

Here's the first few lines from the translated description Takemi jumbo machine repair goods vendor Gingaiza Gran Fighter of the only Japanese people can understand this description, so goods goods repair and will be transferable. Trouble is a concern because people overseas, and have a service organization on behalf of people overseas, individuals from the tender of the successful bid will be considered invalid and will be all |

i live back and forth between the US and Japan and i collect a lot of different types of old japanese stuff. there is a great number of sellers in japan that simply wont do business with foreigners. being able to speak with them breaks down that barrier 90% of the time, but there are some hard heads out there that wont budge not matter what. try buying a house there and the japanese got will give you the same grief, though there is really no stipulation that completely inhibits ownership. id say when buying online from japan this will be very common when looking at specialty goods.

If I have 35mllions in the bank like Mr Bourno, I dont mind also buy 2 spazers....one for sitting on it and one for collection purspose.
I do know of the red light district of Japan also do not entertain foreigners lol. Spas, KTV, Brothels etc...once they detect you are not japanese ( some tried to sneak in with a little Spoken Japanese) , the yakuzas will not hesitate to kick your ass out.
Seems like Mr torpedoboy is selling out his entire collection. I am setting up a campfire at his listing and camp for more items coming out from him. Any joiners ? lol
