Did you buy something locally or receive a package in the mail? Share a story or picture here.Rules:- Ideally you should only be sharing DB/Z/GT related items.

I received this Gregory on Saturday and he's basically perfectly to scale with 5 inch figures. He's from a set of hard plastic toys called Crazy Bones AKA Gogos, and because he's such hard plastic, I'm afraid I can't modify the figure at all to cut him out more or get rid of the excess material on his back. He'd probably chip and shatter similar to trying to sand glass or crystal or maybe even really well frozen ice.
I may try making a mold of him so I can cast a single copy of him for myself that I can edit. The only way in the past that I've made decent molds is to make them push molds made out of plaster, and using apoxie in the plaster means it'll be a one use mold, because I'll have to break it to get it out.

This is great, Bran. A nice start to an integral thread of the American section. I am currently trying to work a deal out with sssanchez for his other Crazy Bones Gregory. It would be an upgrade to my custom.

I remember those figures along with the ones they did of the heads of the characters. Good times.

I think it's a perfect scale with king kai, Nice also did they ever release a Gregory in any of the Dbz sets?

Wasup everyone I jus traded for these items about an hour ago. I saw an ad on craigslist where I live and contacted the seller he had the stuff I'm showing you here. I traded all these for a pair of old nikes I had. I feel I came out on top!  Also the pinball machine was missing a piece to make it stand but it's okay with me. |

Seems like your cragslist is great, mine doesn't have much good stuff on there.

Neither does mine. The only good thing I've ever seen is a seller who had the entire DBZ manga series for $40. But I missed it.

Mine just has overpriced shizzlenuts. Like $100 for the Irwin goku energy blaster.

I have to try like six different spellings of the name to find anything remotely worth clicking on.
