Looking for Soft Garage Tetsujin

[JB]

Anyone out there have either a Blue or B & W Soft Garage Tetsujin for sale? It can be boxed or loose.

This is a MUST if you are a big Tetsusjin fan. Very heavy with a retro look.

yap, the size is rather good so that you can place it beside your favorite ST robots

I'd wedge him in between my GA-63 & GB-23. There's a store that's got the B&W one for $58.00; tell me droogs, is that a fair price?

[Mikey]

I bought the grey and the blue Soft Garage T28 at around $50-$45 a piece. I would snag that grey one for $58. Its worth it, believe me. If you like the Soft Garage T28 you might want to check out the Marmit version.

How does Marmit stack up against Soft Garage?

[Mikey]

Check it out! I think Marmit came out with 5 color variations. 3 blue versions, 1 gray, and one brown. There used to be a bunch of these on Ebay and no one really paid attention to these.

Nice pics Mikey. I just found this comparison in Alen Yen's Toybox:

9.6.00: Tetsujin 28 Battle!

"These two hunks of metal got announced almost at the same time, the Soft Garage maybe a few days earlier if I remember correctly, and then came the Marmit, almost as if they were saying "look we can make a DC T28 too!!!" and that's pretty much the way they feel. The Soft Garage runs about $70-$100 depending on where you find it, feels SOLID, is really heavy, and comes with a diecast remote control box. At 5.25" it's also much shorter than the Marmit, which clocks in at 7.25". However that's about where the improvements stop. The Marmit feels kind of hollow, is actually lighter than the SG version, and comes with an extra pair of hands. Both figures come with flames that can be put into their backpacks, but we all know that's something that will probably just sit in the box anyway. The colors on the SG version are much more vivid and apealing. The Marmit version looks, almost faded and washed out. Since you are getting so much less, it's fortunate that the Marmit only sells for about $50-75, but honestly, your money is much better spent on the Soft Garage one. "
