Do you collect other toys besides Transformers? Maybe you've got a Masters of the Universe collection you'd like to show off, or maybe you like Thundercats, Voltron, G.I.Joe, Power Rangers, Star Wars, Wrestling, or any of the various comic book toy lines. Please keep the discussions here to non-Transformers toy lines.

Gatchaman had a robot? I just remember vehicles and Sentai like costumes.
No. He means that Gatchaman started the five-person hero team format in Japanese media.

Oh, didn't Sentai come first?
Gatchaman debuted in 1972, Gorenger debuted in 1975.

I say 150$ shipped.
Whoa! I think that's a little high. I really don't think this toy is very big. I would guess, before shipping $55 to $75 US. Maybe I'm just being optimistic, but I bet he is no bigger than a Transformers Leader toy. Lets use Cybertron/GF Prime as the measuring stick. (and that may be too big)
Thought: Will, are you speaking in CAN dollars? Than you might be right.

I guess him looking kinda like star sabr threw me off in thinking he would be around the same height. Judging from this pic, he is about the height of an open average laptop (since he is bigger than the portable blu ray), so maybe 15 inches tall. So yeah, more like the same price as Ironhide. Around 100$ shipped or less (US currency).

Well' you are my personal financial adviser these days Mr. Smart Money Man. thanks for pushing another one of my nostalgia buttons with that jam! That one dude is playing a Commodore 64! The one year old and I just had a late 80's dance party. thanks for that too.
I'm gonna wait til this toy hits AmiAmi before I pull any triggers though. If he comes in May, that leaves plenty of time to save up.

It was a pleasure. And WHAT?! 170$?!?!?!!?!?!?!? That's how much this guy would cost me in canadian shipped (if I bought from BBTS, it would cost me 250$). That's insane (and the same as shockwave). I dont know what BBTS is smoking and I hope not too many people get suckered in when there are far better options out there. HLJ is also a really good alternative for this guy since their shipping is usually lower than competition.

Thats too much for me for a figure from a line I dont know much of. Will have to pass in the end. Also, I willprobably order my shockwave from anime export, there is quite a price difference.
