I think that was me that knew about Xabungle stuff. As it relates to these knockoffs, there was Ironcar X (the blue one), which is a knockoff of the Blue Gale Xabungle. Then there was Ironcar Y, which was a knockoff of Irongear. As you may have guessed, "Ironcar" was a bad mistranslation o...

Tip: Try Kohl's, if you have them in your area. They do a MUCH better job of rotating stock than other places, and no one thinks to look there. I went there when I couldn't find the Tracks/Jazz wave being stocked anywhere else. If you have the willpower, wait for the right "sale" to get th...

1. I'm kind of like Marvel. You get a "no-prize". (I.e. I'll change the shirt to reflect the fact that you have the stomach the size of a whale). Nobody's came close yet. There's this one restaurant I saw on TV that ticks me off... they offer a $500 prize for finishing a 12 lb something or...

Actually, you don't really need much more than that pic, at least as far as the box is concerned. It doesn't have ANY of the telltale KO signs. And the odds that someone would stick a fake prime in a real box that nice are ridiculously slim. I'd say with 99.5% certainty that it's legit. As for you &...

This is a question I've always wondered for those of you with mini-cons. Which of your special weapons do they unlock? Mine has provided me with the ability to realize that my toys are... *gasp* TOYS! So far we're digging playing with the GI Joes... he's only 1 and a half, so he can't transform muc...

No kidding. Note that the GoBots archive does not feature a nicely taken and edited photo of him, indicating he's not in my collection. I bid on one about two weeks back, but he finished in the mid $120's... too rich for my blood. I've got one that I'd probably consider selling, if you want to drop...

I'm selling... I just finished my tax hell, so I should finally have time to dig around. I'm pretty sure I have just about everything on the want list you sent me. I should get to it this week.

I'm not TT, but I can tell you that:

1) That's Cobra Commander, V4, 1991.

2) He's supposed to have a facemask which is NOT removable... hence the reason his face looks mangled! :lol:

Good luck on that. He's Japan only, so IF you're lucky, you might find some of the knockoff parts... but even those are tricky to find, these days.

I do, but I'm quite busy filing (extremely late) taxes for the next two weeks, so I can't really go digging spare parts out of storage. If you can wait, feel free to drop me a PM with your trade and want lists, and we could probably work something out.

Actually, they've always sold pretty consistently for between $15-20.

That looks reasonably fair to me. There's also always the chance that Shockwave and Sunstreaker could be counterfeit. Especially with a brick and mortar store, you've got to leave room for profit, overhead, wages, etc. It's not any different than going to a pawn shop with a guitar. Are you going to ...
