Hy,
I saved one of the toys I used to play with back in the 70thies. Over the years it seems I lost one of the misseles(darts) of the shogun warriors Poseidon. I totally forgotten how I got this toy,but on search for this missing missele I saw other shogun warriors and than I knew it! I got this from my best friend in the 70thies...later when we both went to highschool we lost contact..seen him a couple of times when we went out in the city but thats it..jears later I met his brother in the internet and found out he commited suïcide.. His father died and he simply could not cope with it... Now I know why this item seemed so special to me, just not a plesand way to find out.Stil..Ï would love to get it complete and put it in my display with all my other collectables.
So who can help me out?? I wante to upload some pictures but the system says: Add Attachment

I assume you mean the 6" diecast Poseidon?
Do you have the skinny blue missiles or the yellow ones that look like a star/flower at the end?
What country do you live in?

Those are tough. Best option is to try and find a broken figure that has a few included. If a seller has just the missiles they are usually expensive.
The Poseidon came with 4-6 blue missiles total, though you really only need two. I am actually looking for the same missiles as well.
As long as your Poseidon has the movable shoulder launchers and leg treads, the blue missiles are correct.
Later versions came with the yellow "safety" missiles.

I cant move the movable shoulder launchers and leg treads on mine ...mine only came with 2 misseles,I've seen new pakkages with the same robot. I can buy one for 13$ incl schipping..but how do I know they are original? I also found a guy on facebook who makes these misseles..he might make some new ones in january..for 3 $ a piece I could send you directions if you like?...he had the yellow ones and red ones as well

So you have the second version then. The early release of the second version came with blue missiles.
$13 is not a bad price if it is shipped for an original missile. You'd have to ask if it was original. It probably is, but you still need to ask.
The shogun plastics guy is a good guy. He is a member here I believe, his name is Derek. I have met him and he makes quality reproduction parts.

that what I thought as well.. but how do I know its not a remake?.I mean if the mould is the same as the original you cant know.. right? if the guy who's selling more seperate one..do you need one as well?..maybe we can get it at a lower price and simply split the diference ofcourse only if its a lot cheaper..thre's always schipping charges..a stamp would cost me 1,10 euro...and if we do this by bank transfer it wont cost anything extra personally I have to wait buying as I had a big chunk of my salery taken by presents for my kids for this month hahaha..
