Plus the 36 robots coming out between now and January!! Lottery time! What did you get? I'm super curious. CFF at one time I started collecting vintage as I love the Takatoku stuff and have a couple Time Bokan pieces but man the same piece can go for 100 or 2000! Vintage pricing is crazy... but auctions are where it's at! Love to know your "hauls" as the MIA Magengar would say. |

I got: - "UFO ROBOT GRENDIZER" BOXED POPY ROBOT & SHIP. - GODAIKIN "BIO MAN" BOXED CHOUDENSHI BIOMAN ROBOT. - GODAIKIN "DAIDENZIN" BOXED DENZIMAN ROBOT. - "CHODENJI ROBO COMBATTLER V" BOXED ROBOT. - "TOSHO DAIMOS" BOXED POPY ROBOT. - GODAIKIN DYNAMAN & DYJUPITER BOXED PAIR. - GODAIKIN "DAITETSUJIN 17" BOXED ROBOT. They are all complete with original package. I bid low and was not expecting to win anything, but apparently people who bid against me either (a)were not fully interested on these toys, or (b)just bid to jack-up the price. Then again, there was a complete and mint Godaikin Combattler V that sold for over $1700! On a final note, as a result of my winning bids, I had to cancel my $850 pledge to Mayhem Mechanics Unrustable Bastards Kickstarter project, and a bunch of pre-ordered items with BBTS. |

Not me. I got a Pile of Loot from BBTS and are just waiting for the Kotetsu Jeeg & Pantheroid Set to be released in oreder to have it shipped with the rest of my AE stuff. But to be honest, I'm not very interested in any of it right now. Work is taking up 95% of my time.

Yeap. Got to a point where I was bored out of my mind, with a super short fuse and everything bothered me. So, I told my wife to quit her job and stay home, and I went back to work. Much, MUCH happier now! 👍

I wanted a job where I didn't have much responsibility (minimum stress), so I went to work for the Transit Light Rail as platform security. I just enjoy people watching! It's hilarious!!!
