I swear, this particular toy has eluded me SINCE THE YEAR IT CAME OUT. Been trying to find the damn thing since I was a kid. I still have the other two my parents got me for Christmas (1977 I think?) Sheesh. C'mon universe, give it up already.

beautiful

Mike I have seen this set for sale 3 times in the past year on YHJ. I had it as a kid. I was very tempted to bid on it but passed because it was outside my realm of focus. Next time I see one I will send you the link.


You are going to laugh and simaltaniously cry. I had this set MIMB and for years it got destroyed. I eventually made the remains into an art toy project for my Foundations 3d class at Risd in 93'.

We had kids come in to look at our toy designs to see if we suceeded in making something kids would want to play with... and one of them bought the thing off me for $1 in pocket change in front of the class because he loved what I made out of it. Very touching and vivid memory.

Bought this set the same time I found that Ultraman Leo tin and Takemi Pegas at the flea market in 84' for like 12 bucks total.

You're not alone with that wish Mike ;-)



Last time I bid on one was in June this year.
Unfortunately my max was a bit too low...to be honest I didn't really know
what this Header "could cost".
Now I know it ;-)

I suppose I should have picked up one of those sets dangit. Stephan, just out of morbid curiosity, what was the final on the Header? I assume 700-800?

Josh...yes, stories like that make my head spin and still provide fuel for these insane "discovery" dreams that I'm apparently stuck with forever. Twelve bucks. That's probably the best score ever.

25500 yen!!

I think my max was 23k yen or something... ;-)

The sets I have seen of all three range in the 800-1200 usd.

The last one I saw of all three were MIMB. I was SOOO tempted. But knowing how you need it, next time I see one, your the first guy I email . ;-)

Awesome, thx Josh. I know for a fact that these were sold in the USA so I'm a bit surprised that so few people own them. Perhaps fewer survived because they are more fragile, or just perceived to be inferior to the gokin versions. I think the final combo looks damn cool!

I would contact Len_Roma.

Joking aside I see the three come up on Yahoo Japan quite often as well. I search "Diapolon" nearly every weekday so I'll let you know the next time I see one. As Josh points out they seem to go for some bucks, unfortunately...
