    Looks great!

    Now I know some people do not care for cartoon scaling, but matching Dinoking against Landcross or any other is pretty unfair. I remember looking in the Takara catalogue as a kid, loving and choosing them for my relative to get for me (which they didn't manage to and got me Landcross instead). Would have been devastated to see how puny they were, especially combined.

    Good luck.

    I'm looking for an original Stepper and Artfire. There's an Artfire for like $2k(!!!!) on ebay right now, but I'm not paying that out of principle. :lol

    You're braver or more optimistic than me, I settled for the reissue and a custom. Nothing beats the originals though! Good luck on the hunt.

    Yes. Yes it was. Including the hair metal playing in the background at all times. The 80's were awesome!

    Nice piece! Did you buy that from Artfire (Chuck Liu)? I was looking at that but went with Browning and Octane.

    Yep. Been liking for one for awhile, just hard to find one that isn’t yellowed or that costs a small fortune.
