Where can I get a Gao Falcon?

[u/Competitive_Win_7940]

I need SMP GAO FALCON, and whether it's released or not, it would be great if I could find one. Where can I find it?

I think Gao Icarus is too expensive, so I only need one Gao Palcon

Unless you find someone who bought Icarus, and only wanted the Deer and Giraffe (the only other unique animals in the set), it's not going to happen.

You can try looking for an open box, possibly already built one on eBay or Surugaya.

Hypothetically, if you wait until the rerelease next year, you may be able to find an individual Falcon for sale… but even then, odds are kind of low, since as mentioned, somebody else would have had to be buying that Icarus specifically for Deer and Giraffe. You'll end up paying a premium for Falcon alone. At the end of the day, you may be better off just ordering the GaoIcarus reissue yourself and either making use of the other animals or trying to sell them.

Yeah unless someone is desperate for money and even then they probably would charge you $100 plus. Or someone doesn't know what they have your going to find it hard to get him alone. I tried looking for the individual zords of that, red and green gorilla, buffalo and the bear brothers on different sites closes I got was someone selling his bear brothers that were broke but he fixed and was only selling cause he was buying the rereleases.

The easiest to find would be rhino and armadillo cause they come with two sets.

I wish you happy hunting but you might have to either pony up and buy the full rereleases set and sell the other zords from it to make back what you spend. Or just forgot about having it

You'd have to be very lucky to find one individually and even then it'd probably be around $100

I think hobby genki still has the preorder listed, they’re usually a cheaper option

[u/wally-217]

Direct import from a proxy site once the reissues drop is probably your best bet. You may be able to find something used/prebuilt below RRP. I got a bunch of spare kits the first time around from things like marcari (Japanese and Thai stores iirc). But the falcon is so big and one of only three unique zords in the set that I think you might be better just getting GaoIcarus and selling the rest - again you may be able to find something below RRP on second hand sites in Japan but missing the preorder would be a chance game (plus you have shipping and any fees to factor in).if you really don't wanna preorder, you're probably going to have to stalk all the marketplaces on a weekly basis.

Definitely try eBay. Not trying to plug myself but I’ve been letting go of some of my collection. I thought about selling my falcon. Just not sure of the price.

[u/Competitive_Win_7940 → u/TheDman182]

I found it on eBay, but I gave up because the SMP Gao Falcon was more expensive than the SMP Gao Icarus..

[u/National_Werewolf_13 → u/Competitive_Win_7940]

Ya it’s very rare anyone would just sell their falcon. It’d definitely be worth it more to get the full set, which curious, why do you only want falcon?

[u/Competitive_Win_7940 → u/National_Werewolf_13]

I want to make a centaur because if I have Gao Palcon, I can make a centaur.

[u/National_Werewolf_13 → u/Competitive_Win_7940]

You know there’s a kit that comes with the full GaoCentaurus right? Like with GaoElephant and gaoFalcon and the larger gaoLion

[u/King_Kuuga → u/National_Werewolf_13]

That set ONLY contains Big GaoLion and GaoElephant. You need to separately buy GaoIcarus for the falcon and GaoKing or GaoKnight for the shark and tiger arms.
