MINT, NEW IN THE ORIGINAL ART BOX (see photos) WITH ALL ACCESSORIES! - FROM THE 1970's JAPANESE TV SHOW, NEVER PREVIOUSLY SOLD RETAIL OR PLAYED WITH, NEVER REMOVED FROM BOX BEFORE PHOTO-ING AND TESTING FOR THIS AUCTION!!!! AND WITH ALL ACCESSORIES! PLEASE NOTE : This is a very special and unique toy. I have been selling Japanese character toys worldwide for 27 years and this is one of the most unusual and unique I have ever come across. I have bought and sold 1,000's of Japanese character toys but this one is an aggregate of features unlike any other I have seen. It combines a large die-cast and plastic figure with battery-operated and light-up and automized functions and even has accessories AND is a beautifully accurate representation of the character! BUT!!! IT QUITE PROBLEMATIC! This toy is representative of Bandai's marked failure to make properly solid and hi-quality functioning batt/op toys! Indeed, they are terrible at batt/op toy design! And, for that reason this toy is EVEN RARER than it would have been to begin with owing to the fact that 1/3 to 1/2 of them were malfunctioning right from the factory! This toy may not seem an inexpensive purchase but it is offered at such a LOW price precisely because it is guaranteed to fail in time. Maybe the first time you try it , maybe later on but if it is played with, it will certainly cease to function properly! If this was not true I would be asking over $1,000. for this toy. THIS IS A TOY FOR A PURE COLLECTOR! ONE WHO WANTS IT FOR ITS DESIGN, BEAUTY AND CONCEPTION AS ALMOST A WORK OF ART IN THE PANTHEON OF JAPANESE CHARACTER TOY-MAKING! IT IS NOT FOR THE AVERAGE COLLECTOR! SO IF YOU ARE THE TYPE OF RARE COLLECTOR WHO CAN APPRECIATE THE EXCEPTIONAL COOL AND RARITY OF THIS TOY AND THE ABSOLUTE DRAWBACK OF OWNING A TRAGICALLY FLAWED IF BRILLIANT TOY, REMEMBER, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. I ONLY GUARANTEE THAT IT WILL FAIL IF NOT SOONER THAN LATER - ONLY PURCHASE WITH THAT IN MIND. IF YOU CAN APPRECIATE THIS, DON'T MISS IT!! THIS IS YOUR CHANCE TO GET ONE, AND, AT A GREAT PRICE. YIPPEEE! (I HAVE MANY VINYLS & DIECASTS FROM JAPAN THAT ARE AWESOME, UP ON AUCTION TOO - LOOK FOR THEM - if you win others you can combine them for shipping and SAVE $ !!!!!). OFFERED HERE AT A REALLY LOW PRICE!!! WINNER PAYS WITH PAYPAL or, you may email me BEFORE bidding for other payment options, WINNER MUST SEND PAYMENT WITHIN 2 DAYS.
