Total newbie here. I collect a lot of different pop culture items mainly comic books but also cereal boxes, t-shirts, Mego WGSH, Star Wars action figures, Rubber Uglies, as well as other vintage toys. I don't have any robots in my collection...until now. I came across the following lot for $20 a couple weeks ago. Since the writing is in Japanese, I have no idea on identifying these figures. Not sure if I even have any complete figures or just tons of parts and accessories. I'm hoping some on here can help me identify them or point me in the correct direction on this site. And, I hope you enjoy the pictures.

I can pretty much identify everything you have. Mostly it is just parts and accessories, and broken robots. Some good accessories, most are common though.
You may have one or two bots or vehicles that are incomplete or in ok shape. The rest is broken in some way or very rough.
PM me if you want to do something with the lot.

Wow, all that vintage for $20; I'm so jealous. Off hand, there's Dairugger, God Sigma, Daimos, Danguard Ace.. Like Mr Ginrai says, some are incomplete. Love those times when robot toys had parts that actually shoot.

for that amount...THAT is definitely a very worthy haul. Even though some are very much scrap and incomplete.. i see some items right there that toy parts hunter would definitely go for.
those vintage voltes v parts for example would fetch 80-100usd or more... and that bioman biorobo shield alone could give your money back.

Hi guys, thanks for the feedback. This gives me a great start on researching these items. Vintage toys are so much better than today's toys, imho. One of the figures I put a red missile in the top of his head. The thing shoots about 7 ft high! Totally shocked me! Very cool.

Thanks for sharing the score story and pics! Generally, this older stuff is best posted in the Vintage/Diecast section to get the most input and ID.
For sure, start by sifting & separate all the fists, and missles, and pair up the ones that obviously go together, for better inventory photos(you may already have done this, LOL). You'll fill some collectors' missing part needs, if you care to part with any of it.
