Shanester Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 Is there a grail item you have been after? What is the focus of the hunt? For me, its a couple of items. On the Minimate front, I desperately hunt the Minimates display box with Spidey and Carnage on the front. This piece has eluded me since I saw one on Ebay over a year ago after is ended. I'm also after an Attack of the Clones White Clone Trooper Mini-Bust by Gentle Giant. They show up on Ebay occassionaly and usually end around $200, but times are tough with Christmas being here. Plus my wallet has taken a beating with the Bowen Full Size Hulk Statue and Sideshow Premium Format Hulk Statues coming out soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reideen1313 Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 This guy: Once I get that, I can die happy. What IS it? A Jumbo Machinder (Shogun Warrior as they were known here in the US). The difference is, this is the first release, Japan only version that no one knew existed until about 5 (or 6) years ago. Here's the more common US version: The fist launches, the chest fires rockets and they stand about 24" tall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've actually got a pretty decent collection of stuff - this is the one that's been eluding me for years.

In case you found that on google's image search, just so you know that pic you have is from an eBay auction. You probably knew that, but better safe than sorry.

Having 5 kids at the holidays 'll do that to a fella. I'll get one eventually - at least that's what I keep telling (threatening?) my wife.... (I did find him on Ebay btw. Thanks though!)
