So, I'm attempting to hunt down that giant Orochi figure that bandai made years ago. Anyone know what a fair price for one is nowadays?

I got one with tag + slightly damaged original box like 5 years ago for about $150 + s&h.
Size DOES matter!

Re: Official Bandai (Japan) Thread 2.0
Are the other figures from Yamato Takeru worth it? I found the Fish Tentacle God Dude for 30 bucks (forgot the name but I have the link saved)
EDIT: Kaishin Muba. That's it's name.

Welcome to the right place, I have being trying to hunt all of them down. I am down to Utsuno Ikusagami and Orochi. Some of them were tough to come by and not cheap. Orochi goes for about $200 or higher depending on condition. Good luck!DirektorSplennic wrote:So, I'm attempting to hunt down that giant Orochi figure that bandai made years ago.

Yep, it was. It's a nice but huge box in a white style with black and red. Here it is seen in the background (sauce is deviantart):UltramanGoji wrote:Orochi was sold in a box? I never knew that!Petezilla wrote:I got one with tag + slightly damaged original box like 5 years ago for about $150 + s&h.

Finally got MMS Biollante, what a fantastic figure. It's bigger than I thought it would be. It could probably use some more paint but I'm happy with it either way.

I found the Kaishin Muba for $25 (with tag), but I also found the Chogokin Toy's Dream Project Gigan for $40 They are from different stores, so if I get both I would have to pay two shipping prices (It adds up to almost $60 just for shipping). Which figure, if I were to get one, sounds like the better deal?

If it's Mandarake, yes you will pay two separate shipping prices. I would say go for the Chogokin Gigan as it's more likely to sell out than the Kaishin Muba.DirektorSplennic wrote:Okay.

Re: Official Bandai (Japan) Thread 2.0
I'm sorry if this has already been discussed before, but is the newest re-release of Destoroyah a retool/resculpt/modification? The head looks different to me, was wondering I should pick one up. (I've got the pink tag version).

Re: Official Bandai (Japan) Thread 2.0
Actually I think it’s an entirely new Figure. It’s significantly smaller than the old one.Godzillian wrote:minor retool with different paint, skip it since you have the pink tage.Grunkle Sans wrote:I'm sorry if this has already been discussed before, but is the newest re-release of Destoroyah a retool/resculpt/modification?

Re: Official Bandai (Japan) Thread 2.0
I can vouch for this. I own the newer one, while a friend of mine owns the older pink tag version. The pink tag version has a more detailed sculpt and is a tad bit larger, while the newer one has a more accurate head, but is overall less detailed and a tad bit smaller.godzilla1541 wrote:Actually I think it’s an entirely new Figure.

Also, does anyone know what happened to Club Tokyo and why they don't update anymore? I used to love that site.
