$80 each for the blue ones is a good price, as they are the most desired. Each of the blue ones show a different stage in Tetsujin's look over the years while the grey is the enemy K version; not quite sure why Marmit put out the brown version. I've seen the grey go for mid $50's and mid $70's for brown.

The Soft Garage L.O.G. Tetsujins are really nice pieces; very heavy and with beautiful paint jobs. The S.O.C. version looks damn good also, but Marmit's Blue (red-eye version) Tetsujin, in my opinion, is the best diecast Tetsujin ever made. Popy GA-63 will always be King (same way Elvis is) because he's the first T-28 Gokin ever made, he's solid and he's a charming s.o.b., but Marmit has taken the character to a new level. I think Bandai decided to go with the potbelly version for their S.O.C. release as opposed to Popy's slimmer/sleeker GB-24 because of the success that Soft Garage and Marmit had with theirs.

I scored a Soft Garage Blue T-28 for thirty-five bucks at Anime Expo last summer. Like a moron, I didn't get the white one too. It's one of my favorite pieces. I'll probably pass on the SOC version, though. At least until Christmas gets nearer.
