OneSixMedia Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 I went to my local swapmeet last night and happened upon a familiar toy a Phalanx. I bought it and I was wondering what these go for now a days? I might want to sell it. The toy is loose and is missing the missile doors, but its in pretty good shape over all! I will post a pic ASAP. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AcroRay Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Completed auctions at eBay would be your best reference for a 'going price'. I was really surprised what a nice toy that one was, especially for the price. Much moreso than the other Destroids from that set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiriK Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 i've bought loose ones that still had the doors for about $10-$12 or so from Frank and Sons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneSixMedia Posted August 3, 2009 Author Share Posted August 3, 2009 i've bought loose ones that still had the doors for about $10-$12 or so from Frank and Sons Oh really that sucks! Oh well at least I saved him! I just let my son play with it. Hey about this Franks and Sons, where is it and what kind of stuff do they have there. I have heard MW members hang out there. I would like to check it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

big F Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 Is it the large one about 8-10 inches tall or the little ones that are about 3 inches ? They aren't masses as they are still fairly new, but if its the bigger one at least its worth more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its kinda cool! I wish I had the doors! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kanata67 Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 of all the simple recats to be done I always thought that the missle doors should have become more availible by now myself. The 7" toys were pretty cool and you could use them for custom parts as they were cheap as they got re-issued in "exosquad" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EXO Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 the thing I hated about that toy was that in the pics in the back it had awesome looking missiles, then you open it and you get stupid little dots. Where the hell is the Yamato version? Been months since prototypes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiriK Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Seriously, i haven't seen any new pics of the Phalanx and it'd be a shame not to complete the 1/60 trio of destroids... haha... (don't really care about the spartan) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big F Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 I have a couple of those 7inch guys, in fact I have at least 2 of each of them in the loft. I was gonna donate the little guys to MechTek for his rather large scratch build, May have to bust out the others and see what's what.

big F Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 Might even be Exo Squad http://www.androidzdungeon.com/online.stor...%20DESTROID.jpg That's the type I have I also have the larger ones ) The Exo Squad ones are still fairly plentiful they crop up at discount stores and junk sales etc quite often. Still they are quite good renderings and are excellent for the kids as playthings to divert attention from Yamatos and finished Hasagawas.

ff95gj Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 The Phalanx is called Spartan in Robotech? Why changing that...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anime52k8 Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 The Phalanx is called Spartan in Robotech? Why changing that...? I think it's just labled wrong. I don't think they changed any of the mecha names in robotech but I could be wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RT junkie Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 I think it's just labled wrong. I don't think they changed any of the mecha names in robotech but I could be wrong. I thought they changed all the names (to lazy to go look them up...) Macross / Robotech Tomahawk = Excalibur Defender = Radar X Spartan = Gladiator Phalanx = Spartan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Macross / Robotech Tomahawk = Excalibur Defender = Radar X Spartan = Gladiator Phalanx = Spartan on RT.com they Use the original names, then in really tiny print they say "also known as: " >link< I think they used the original names in the show and then changed all the names on toys for some strange reason.

OneSixMedia Posted August 15, 2009 Author Share Posted August 15, 2009 Wow! it looks so much better with the missle doors. If any one has a spare set of doors let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
