Graham Posted August 9, 2012 Posted August 9, 2012 Anybody knows what this is? Saw it in a toy shop window today. Seems to be some sort of display item, possibly with light and sound (unsure). It looks like the two halves may swing open. For what purpose, I don't know though. Graham
MacrossJunkie Posted August 9, 2012 Posted August 9, 2012 I've got no idea what it is but it reminds me of one of those action figure carrying cases from the 80's that doubled as a playset.
Renato Posted August 9, 2012 Posted August 9, 2012 I think it's part of the Pachislot mechanism. I remember that opened up in the middle to reveal the main LCD screen behind it. Hey look, I actually found it on Youtube : And all I can recognize from the background cacophony is the Sakura Taisen theme.
Graham Posted August 9, 2012 Author Posted August 9, 2012 Great detective work Renato. Mystery solved. Although why that shop has it is another mystery. I may have to ask them how much thay want for it. Graham

Mechapilot77 Posted August 9, 2012 Posted August 9, 2012 is that TFC Hercules and a Maketoys Yellow Giant in the back? Do 3rd party TF toys sell in normal everyday toy stores in HK?
David Hingtgen Posted August 9, 2012 Posted August 9, 2012 I believe they do. Though it's very interesting that Herc has a Decepticon insignia applied---that's not "Factory fresh"!

Hehe, I've no idea what a 'TFC Hercules and a Maketoys Yellow Giant' are. My son is the transformers fan in the family, not me and he only likes Gen 1. But yes, quite a few shops here do sell 3rd party TF toys. Graham
Swoosh Posted August 11, 2012 Posted August 11, 2012 Just picked my cavaliers and 25 armored pack. Saw the MT Giant green version and the boxset on display, broke down and pre-ordered it.
G1mechakick Posted October 29, 2015 Posted October 29, 2015 Wow I need one of those! Anyone have any idea on how much they are going for these days?
