    I'm thinking about selling this guy that I got in the late 90's, and was wondering what I could reasonably get for him. he's got a solid c8-c9 box, and is complete with instructions and used sticker sheet. the figure is very fresh, since I'm the only one that's owned him since it was opened. I figure I've got the god jinrai reissue, and if I could get back what I paid for him (about $130 back then) then it would be worth selling it.

    MIBs are selling for less than USD $110 (approximately) from where I am. :redface2:

    Unfortunately, Godbomber/PowerMaster Prime and Star Convoy as well, dropped in price after their reissues were made. People would rather pay $100 now for a God Ginrai reissue then getting the original Godbomber. I bought 3 of them when the reissue price dropped down to $40 each.

    There are collectors who would want the original though, especially the Japanese line collectors, the box is nice. There is one MIB on ebay now, the seller is asking $260, I dont see him selling it for that price but, who knows its ebay!!
