Gunbuster Victory Action Figure
Manufacturer: Kaiyodo/Xebec
A rather interesting piece of Gunbuster merchandise
which is not very easy to find, but is rather affordable,
just under $20.00 US. The figure includes a set of extra
arms and hands and comes with some rather strange
weapons, such as the Buster Tomahawk and the Buster
Home Run, which are mentioned in the radio dramas.

Gunbuster Perfect Change Model
Manufacturer: Studio HalfEye
This resin model has the distinction of being one of the
most expensive items ever produced of this series at
around $500 US dollars. The kit comes packaged as
Buster Machines 1 and 2, and an be combined to create
the full Gunbuster robot. However, due to its size (7
inches tall combined) the model is extremely fragile and
one mistake can spell doom for a collector who spent his
hard earned money for it. And while the kit does include
a nice collection of accessories as well as display stands
modelled after the Exelion, it is recommended that the
collector leave the model in the box as is. In years to
come, this model will probably be highly sought after.
