[CAMERA FUN] Popy Jumbo Grendizer

I thought I'd share my first major Jumbo purchase with y'all. Picked this beauty up last week from a very cool guy here in MA...who may just be a board member, too! ;)

I took these two quick pictures outside just now. The Pats are playing like shit against the Dolphins (as usual for this matchup)...so I need something to cheer me up. So...Enjoy!





(oh, the clipped-vane missiles are actually from the 2nd version Shogun Great Mazinger...I just didn't feel like taking Grendizer's missiles out of their baggie!)

Awesome pictures! I like how they show off the size of the toy.

Glad you mentioned about the missiles, I was confused for a second, seeing short vanes on them. Nice pics though.

Thanks for buying this so I couldn't.... ya son of a bitch.

Excellent angles on those shots, really adds to the massive levels of awesomeness in the toy!

Thanks, guys!

Nekrodave was just telling me the other day that the High Dream "jumbo" is apparently out.

Under $200 certainly isn't bad...but then after looking at those pics...then at the Popy Jumbo....hehe...no contest!

Heh, ever since Google started converting units (and currency!) automatically when you type in "N cm to in" and vice versa, I haven't had any problems with measurements.

Someone should write a little script for a webpage with columns for "height of the robot in the show" and "height of the toy", rows for English and metric measurements, and a seperate input/display box for "scale of the toy". That would be totally sweet.
