I just grin from ear to ear whenever I see him!! Thanks guys!! Once the funds start coming back in, I'll get his stickers and finish him up. All I need now is the wheel truck to make him 100%. But I can live without that for a while

I was received my Combattler last year in a similar condition to what yours arrived in. Mine still had the decals but they were torn and faded so I ended up peeling them off, scanning them and creating a restored set of printable vinyl decals for it in Photoshop. Here it is now hanging out with a couple of his Popy buddies.. PM me if you are interested in a set.

Such a great looking figure. Can't imagine ever being able to lay out the kind of money needed to add one to the collection some day. Then again I'm still looking for the easy ones!

He's incredible!! Patience, patience, patience... Probably the toughest word out there but it's true. I've been after him for a long time, lost 3 to higher bidders before I finally got this one. He was well worth it!! Best made jumbo I've purchased so far!! He's so solid!

Yes sir, I've been watching the crazy Dangards. While I was going after a Combattler, there were Poseidon's everywhere. Now that he's next on my list, POOF!!! I haven't seen on in a while. Oh well, cash is a little low anyhow, he'll come back around. I've noticed they come in spurts....

Much better..
Suggestion though. Put a couple of rubber bands (preferably the wider ones) around the arms on the arm band decals overnight and that will help the decal's glue to setup better and prevent peeling. Otherwise that Jumbo plastic can be a real pain to get good adhesion to.

Poseidon and Dangard are the only 2 left from my original top 10 list. Dangard is a bit out of my price range at the moment and I haven't seen a Poseidon in a while. Mean while, I still have 2 I'm working on.
