Tranformers G1 Vintage Liokaiser!!

Great chance came by with a good current price for these sets that make up LIOKAISER!
have been looking for this combiner for a very very very long time. of course one can find it easily but at a price too high. Then came a local collector who is offloading some of his transformers due to a collection (of TFs and other stuffs) that is growing too huge for his current home.
These come in individual boxes, toys all in good condition and complete...paperworks however, are not. and the boxes, some are excellent others are crap but most important are the toys.

First up, D-329 Leozack, good box, complete papers, styrofoam pristine...










D-331 Hellbat, Box is better then leozack and everything else is complete and nice!








D-332 Jallguar also a good box and complete...too bad the red sticker tag which cannot be removed due to the years that it was adhere onto the box..











D-330 Guyhawk. no papers but box and styro in good condition.








D-333 Killbison nice box and styro with complete papers.









D-334 Drillhorn probably the worst among the lot. red tape across the artwork (the face!) but can't blame anyone for this...box is crumpled and the styrofoam is broken.no papers.








Then comes the magnificent Liokaiser!
other than Devastator, the other combiner with six individual bots and both are decepticons!

One can really see the difference in quality between the real deal and a K.O for this piece. (i have a low quality K.O but am quite sure that even the highest quality KO of Liokaiser existing in the market now can not match up.never.

Joints are tight. connections are tight. what else could i ask for?






Really a beauty...


on a side note, after looking at all the individual boxes, it really hit me again that the G1 artwork is one of the most attractive art for TFs ever...ever...then i went over to Botch the Crab webby which has all the box art of TFs, unblocked. Please go over and have a look if you are too interested in Boxarts...you will not regret.

  1. Rad article and nice score, thanks for sharing. You forgot about the 5 micromaster combiners Monstructor/Dinoking and Landcross and sort of King Poisedon when you mention six member combiner teams.. but anyways, Liokaiser is probably one of the (if not THE) coolest combiners!So good all you need to add is the head!
    I look forward to whatever comes up next!

  2. local seller selling his collection?! got a link or contact?

    did you have any issues with your connector port for Killbison? Mine seem to have a little stress issues somehow which led to GPS love but other than that i really like Liokaiser, still the best combiner
