Best try Offworld in Leeds in think or Pop by the NEC in November for the Memorabilia Convention as there arer plenty of contacts who can set you up with some toys. BTW expect too pay a small fortune for somethings like a Dai-X or X-bomber.Alternatively get in contact with Banzandy@aol.com who specialises in all things X-bomber and Gatchaman.Hope any of this helps.

You might like to have a look at Shane's site to establish what you want to ask for. Dai-X comes in various flavours...http://www.bigdaix.com/collectablesmain.htm

Hard to say, and I'm not really the expert. Generally Dai-X seems to go for more because it's collectable in a broader sense as part of the "jumbo machinder" (?) genre so X-Bomber is perhaps less sought after. None of the ones I've seen have been very accurate models, mind you - they tend to be very bright plastic affairs...
