Gorobilla - the mechagorilla

[Weird WWII]

I got that for $5 at a comic book store sale.  It was a toy from the King Kong movie and I was going to pass it buy but it had a depection of some people runing from him and they were exactly 28mm tall.  After seeing that I said, "KONG vs. NAZIS, thats brilliant!" and laid down that Lincoln and have had some great Weird War games with that guy.  Hell, it was made in China so if it got to Texas it should have gotten to everyone.  I think I've seen some on E-Bay but they are kinda steep but a must if you play Skull Island games or any giant ape vs. whoever games.

Everything is more expensive in the UK.

Some of the toy animals, even the cheap stuff, which you see in the shops these days have a remarkable high quality of sculpting and painting compared to when I was a kid. I recall crude rubbery shapes with some 'detail' paint slapped on. How is that? The new availablity of cheap Shanghai slave labor or better tooling?
