I really have no hope in picking up the original Popy Jumbos, but I'm having fun with the wacky fist attachments they made. Post 'em if you got 'em.

Those are awesome. The one with the car looks like his arm is a pooper scooper.

Those things are really cool though. I have thought about starting to collect the attachments and displaying them as an arsenal. The first one is the water one right?

The first one shown there is the "Ghost Buster". ;D
just kidding. Those attachments do look cool. I've never seen all of them, just a few. Would be interesting to see all of them posted here at RJ. They'd go nicely in RJ's Jumbo database at the main website.

Those looks great.
Having a wall of accessories to display would be cool.
I've seen the Suitcase versions appear a few times on eBay. And the prices vary wildly. But they are on the steady upswing if this past year is any measure. I've always wanted them but getting the Robots to attach them too has always taken precedence.
I like the fact that a few of them were intended to be used by the kid as well as the robot. Point in case the Southern Cross Star Shooter it has an arm strap intended to put on your arm. And the one gun that fires the rubber ball with the streamers. Cool cool stuff.
Ones I never see appear for sale or otherwise... The Xx-11. Man do I want that.

You know what, I like to believe that Kouji gets out of the Jet Pilder after a long day of fighting the bad guys, takes an elevator down Great Mazinger's arm and hops into his car to go home.

Is that a metallic sword at the end? That would be kind of cool to have for a jumbo armory.

I really wanted that cardboard hangar for Great Mazinger. If anyone has one and would take some photos of all the graphics I'll just make my own.

I'm guessing that they reconsidered the wisdom in selling a "toy" sword with a metal blade with the figure to children under 6 years old.

I was thinking the sword was like the silver hawks toys. Plastic with that process where they bonded the metallic paint like substance to it. I don't remember what the process was called. It's mentioned on the DVD extras.

I have a custom Voltron sword that Bourno made that has the metallicized material inthe resin. It's really cool. I'll post some images of it tonight.
I think He (Buorno) was experimenting with this for custom Grendizer's Harkens at one time.

I need to finish buffing it out so it really gleams... The more you buff the more the deeper metallic are revealed.

Nice! Looks like he needs to make some Great Mazinger swords with the same material!

Unfortunately, Koji doesn't even get a smoke break. What's a robot pilot to do in case he or she has to go poopie-potty during a battle? Boss got the better treatment: He's got a urinal inside Boss Borot's head in the cockpit area, behind his seat against a back wall... ...next to an old big-box tube TV, and other junk. ;D zozo-mag You know what, I like to believe that Kouji gets out of the Jet Pilder after a long day of fighting the bad guys, takes an elevator down Great Mazinger's arm and hops into his car to go home.
