I love robot toy trivia, but I'm not familiar with the small chogokin line, so lemme guess... the blue spaceship vehicle = Supercar Gattaiger the silver claw = Baratak chogokin or popy the blue fist by itself = a vintage Jeeg, can't remember the toy line (popy?) blue fist forearm = Raideen small chogokin the blue fist with the sharp fin = Great Mazinga small chogokin black fist with the red/yellow band = Daimos small chogokin black fist with the red shooter peg = Combattler small chogokin blaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! I give up.  zozo-mag |

I know some of these. The ones I don't know I will think about or someone else can chime in. Please see as follows:
1) diaclone dia attacker (takara marked) or Diakron/Kronoform US release or KO Taiwan version.
2) not sure
3) DX Daioja (Japan)/Magnatron (US) - *I may actually need this depending on what size it is. This set comes with both large and small blue fists and one of my sets is missing a few last time I checked. I will look tonight, not sure if I bought them already.
4) not sure
5) diaclone Dia battles / kingdam 3 in 1 (Taiwan).
6) DX Daidenjin (popy or godaikin, figure is 6 inch tall, but that IS the siZe if the DX version of the figure. The ST one is much much smaller).
7) not sure. I actually have one or two full sets of this fist and have not identified them yet. If you find out, please let me know.

Yup. That's # 5 on my list above. Good eyes, most people don't recognize it. That one is pretty small in person. |

Much appreciated guys. This is only the tip of the iceberg though. I should photograph the missiles and odd stuff. I literally getting confused.

Much appreciated guys. This is only the tip of the iceberg though. I should photograph the missiles and odd stuff. I literally getting confused. No problems, bro. Stuff like this helps to stimulate the collector community's knowledge base; and we really appreciate it. In this case, you should gather all those pieces and group them according to the character toy they each belong to. Set up some zip-lock bags, and label each bag as the name of each robot toy that is mentioned here... then place each corresponding part inside the bag of the robot toy it belongs to... Then research the robot character toy online, like eBay- where you'll most likely find many toys of the robot listed... compare your findings at eBay with what you have inside the robot toy's bag... This way, you'll be able to find the robot toy's missing parts, and you can complete your robot toy as a full complete set as you acquire the missing parts. Hope this helps.  zozo-mag |

Appreciated, I plan to do exactly what you said. I do collect so I have been keeping one of each item for myself in case if I do need it (Collection packed away for now). So some stuff will be bounced out to help support my horrible collecting habit.
It will be a small while, I need to cross check against another box because I think I may have pulled one of each item two years ago... meaning I have too much.
Also testing you guys with some of the screwed up Japanese stuff will be fun.

Much appreciated!  It's good for collectors in this hobby to have at least Some knowledge about the items they collect. Doesn't have to be a 'brainiac' about it, but then again, everyone in this hobby Loves a brainiac! Especially a brainiac who can correctly ID every robot toy at a glance and provide source material to confirm the ID. lol On one hand: Not to take this hobby so seriously. After all, we're in this for the fun and love of our robot toys. On the other hand: many folks in this hobby are extremely serious about it, and I respect them folks very much for their dedication and enthusiasm in this hobby. At all Collector levels, whether a person is new to this or a long-time vet, everyone has something to contribute and that is what makes our community grow so awesomely.  zozo-mag |
