newca Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 (edited) Any comments? is it a worthy toy to buy? I mean "play" more than collect, I'm not the kind man that just lock the toys in the cabinet... Sorry it is a Robotech toy, but it IS a MONSTER, right? Don't delete please Edited July 8, 2004 by newca Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zerocool Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 How much are you paying for the toy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CID Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 (edited) There are two veriosn of that Green monster. One is Matchbox and the one in the photo is Harmony Gold release. The one in the photo is less of a quality. I would not pay more than $30. The Matchbox version, I would be conservative and say $35-40. But, on Ebay, it all depends on the demend of the onster or whatever the item is on the auction for that day.

UN Spacy Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 The only "Monster" that's been sold on E-Bay within the last couple of weeks only sold for a little more than $25. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...ssPageName=WDVW You'd be better off saving for Yamato version.

JValk Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 yep dont pay too much for it, after all it isnt even the takatoku version, which is painted brown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sebastian Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 Heeeey Newcastle. Is here a shop here you are keeping for yourself??? I have not seen such monster arround.

MyClone Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 Newca: I agree with CID; don't pay more than $30. That said, it's a very nice toy, with serious Takatoku/Bandai Macross cred, despite the Robotech box. It's a bit small, but very heavy for its size. I dig my Robotech version. Best, --MyClone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YOU even found the bootleg in supermarket while I didn't! btw, the 1/48 low vis is still there covered with dust for your concern, but if I got my bonus...hmmm... and, thanks for everybody's opinion~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sebastian Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 Hey Newca. I KNOW you are keeping the good stuff for yourself. Man you should help the fellow M members and give all the information you have. Shame on you! I saw the Low Viz, I think the rice tag is still to high, but much cheaper than buying it from eBay, so it is actually a good deal if you can nail it. They where asking 1.450 last time I check, and they never reduce their prices (bastards!). It is about USD 175, wich is very tempting. Considering they go for more than 200 on eBay... plush shipping... GO GET IT!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guppy Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 Oh man, I wish I bought 10 low-viz.. I would be rich. I like my Matchbox monster. Not what you'd call poseable but worth $25. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
