1998 TRENDMASTERS 12" VOLTRON WITH PILOTS

I got this as my Christmas present last year. Few years ago I won this in a eBay auction but the seller refused to sent to Malaysia because the shipping cost was too expensive. As time goes by, the set became more and more expensive. (Single carded Black Lion is selling for over USD100 in eBay!). Surprisingly, I found one recently that has a best offer and also free shipping and glad to have won it. The toy is still new in box.

I didn't want to remove it from box...for now, as I've lack of space to display it.

What's cool about this set is that it comes with pilots and all the lions have shooting features! The red and green lion have shooting heads. The blue and yellow lion have pull-back release feature and when these lions lunges forward, the missile automatically shoots off. The black lion have a missile launcher on his back.

The pilots does fits in the lion's cockpit.

Size comparison with 6" version.

Size comparison with the diecast (top box) version. It is almost the same size!! No wonder the earlier seller said shipping is too expensive.

This set is getting rarer these days. eBay prices range USD150-200.
