Desert Dom OMS-09DRF RF MSIA Bandai- Gundam 0080
Here’s another piece I got loose from Ebay – this time a Dom in Desert colors. I have the original black/purple one that first appeared in Mobile Suit Gundam 0079 and I thought it would be nice to have a complementary piece.

Here’s another loose MSIA piece I just got on Ebay. This one’s called the Alex Gundam( short for Armored Layers EXperimental) and it’s from Gundam 0080. From reading Wiki, this a new mecha built specifically for “Newtypes” (basically, humans with enhanced mental capabilities – they are said to almost , in essence, have a 6th sense). This model has the new “Chobham” armor which is basically armor plates bolted onto the unit.

Gato’s Gelgoog MS-14A MSIA 2000 – Gundam ZZ
Here’s a blue Gelgoog from a piece I just got on Ebay. This one is Gato’s from Gundam ZZ. I’m not too fond of this mecha but I do like the color scheme. I bought him to complement the red Char’s Gelgoog that I have.

I didn’t collect many Transformers after G1 save for two Alternators and this Sideswipe G2 that I happen to spot loose in a collectibles store. I bought him as I have the other two Lamborghini G1’s (see 2nd image – Sideswipe – Red and Red Alert – Fire chief) and I thought it would be cool to have the set. My cousin gave me the yellow Sunstreaker for Christmas and I now have all 4 Lamborghinis.

Here’s the 2nd set of planes issued for the Transformers G1 – Thrust, Ramjet, and Dirge. I didn’t realize they call these the “Coneheads” because their heads are like cones (although I’ve kept their nose cones down as I like them better that way).
Anyway, I just picked these up today. I wasn’t originally a fan of these in the beginning as I liked the Autobot cars more but I had the original three planes from season 1 (see 3rd image – Starscream, Skywarp, Thundercracker) so I decided to get the next three (season 2) to complete the set. These were not re-issued as part of the reissue series in the early 2000’s.
Evidently, there is another plane from season 1 called Sunstreaker that I have seen online but I don’t recall him as a kid. I just found the sticker sheets for these planes for cheap and I’m hoping to get them soon as there are no stickers for the eyes, feet and wings so they look kind of barren at the moment. The person I bought them from didn’t put the stickers because he said that over time, the stickers would come off anyway.
Thrust, Ramjet, and Dirge are Decepticon Generation 1 Seekers but these 3 are also known as Coneheads 1985 Transformers

Below is a loose Daitetsujin DX that I traded from one of my cousin’s friends. He was terrible at keeping all the parts and since he played with them, the joints are all loose. I am not a stickler for condition or having the box like my cousin is. Still, I’m glad to have him since he’s an 80’s Bandai Godaikin. My cousin has a better version (also posted on this site here) in box. The image on the right is how he appeared in his show.

Here’s the green “grunt” version of the Geara Doga. The blue version I also have is a customized, commander version. This was part of a large, recently purchased lot on Craigslist. I’m very happy to have this guy as I don’t have him and I love the Char’s Counterattack.

I just bought this one a few months ago…there’s 2 or 3 other Japanese train robos in the same line and this one is called Railspike in the US and J-Five in Japan. I had to do some research and I believe the series is called “Cybertron Team Shinkansen.” Supposedly the others combine to form one big robot but I didn’t get that impression and so, I only bought the one I liked the most. I might go back and get the rest as it was only 20 dollars.

Dynaman ST Godaikin 1984 – Popy Dyna Robo GB-97 1983
This is the 2nd robot I bought and as usual, from Japantown. I vividly remember going to that store almost 3x a month just to scope out what he had and I’d inevitably come out with a wish list. I think I got into Godaikins because of this guy. I also have the big DX version.

I thought I’d post the Bioman ST since I cleaned him up and took a pix of him. I have the DX Popy version which I purchased in Japan, but this is the Bio Robo ST robot that belongs to my cousin. This is the US Godaikin version that came out in 1984. The Bio Robo GC-12 is a Super Sentai robot from tokusatsu Choudenshi Bioman(超電子バイオマン) in 1984-1985. My cousin really likes these ST robots as opposed to the DX versions, as he feel the proportions and design look much better. Me I always have been a fan of the DX robots. Give me a big heavy Chogokin robot with a ton of die cast metal.
