A member on these boards Might Gaine was selling his japanese Shadow Dagwon for 50 shipped to the US. As some have said, Toyarena's Braves are more expensive than they really should be. But if ebay is the only online auction you are using, go for it. I got much of my stuff from Toyarena (Shadow Dagwon, God Silvarion, Power Dagwon), while some others are used stuff (Pegasus Saber, Fire Dagwon) or newer stock (Great Goldran Re-issue) Edit: Congrats Coffeeg0dd on getting a fixed Exkaiser. I had to fix mine using Energon Hotshot.
Toyarena is pricey for Braves, but they offer good service. Never had a problem with them. Da Garn turns up pretty late, I think he shows around the mid-teens in terms of the missions. The good thing is, as soon as he shows, you get him, Land Bison and Pegasus Saber permanently added to your lineup. Brave Saga 2 is pretty awesome from what I've played of it - it is more refined and plays a bit more smoothly. It's also got every Brave ever featured in it except for the ones in the Dagwon and GGG OVAs - the plot is very much based on Gaogaigar, too. Worth hunting down that one, in my opinion. Keep playing the first one, and do as many side missions as you can (I find choosing the first option whenever asked a question seems to be the way to get the things up) as you get a couple of extra characters that way, like Black Gaine and Kagerou. I think they can also transfer over to Brave Saga 2.
Cool. Thanks for the info. I wish Shin Seiki Yuusha Taisen was as refined as Brave Saga 1 and 2. Its a chore to go through that one. And it runs better for my PS2 too!
The pin that held his diecast leg part to the plastic part came off and it disappeared into oblivion. I couldnt find anything else so I cannibalised Hotshot's leg to get the pin that held his wheel and leg together. I then reinforced the pin and reconnected his leg and now its as good as new. I do miss Energon Hotshot since Hi's my second favourite combiner for Inferno (as the top half) while my first is Rodimus (as the bottom while Inferno is the top). Oh well. I probably could have sent it back for a replacement but I got it from Yesasia and I got it after 3 months of anxious waiting so I decided to try to fix it myself or else I wouldve had to wait for even longer.
wow...that's the exact same thing that happened to me...luckily mine happpened right out of the box and i could get a replacement...things to wtach out for I guess...
I found this KO yesterday. I think it's made out of Decker, isn't it? Brave is not known at all in my country, so finding this KO is the only thing I can get.
yep, if you want to see how it fits in J-decker check this link: http://www.geocities.com/evattype01/JDecker.html BTW I once bought an Draius in one of the toystore near were I work, they only sell KO but anyways is still good, like Taker said Yuusha is not really known in my country either like Im having problems with my camera I'll post the picture of this (is 100% the same one that I have):
No. And the Draias KOs aren't articulated either. (That's a real Dinogeist, I'm pretty sure.) Someone must have modded them. Kudos to whoever pulled that off. They look great.
Congrats. You need to hunt down a Dragon Kaiser. Unfortunately Dragon Kaiser is gonna be harder to get because I heard he was never reissued and isnt available in Korea.
I have one Dragon Kizer for sale, only missing the big sword. Also have the complete reissue King Exkizer for sale.
Heard the Vintage Great Exkaiser was huge. But my Great Exkaiser is the Masterpiece as he fits in well enough
Yeh. I know but I have no room for the vintage Great Exkaiser Once I get Great Baan Gaan. Seems like it'll be more inscale to the other braves too.
