Just arrived! My second Raysman, a DW-9300J-1. Just a few quick'n dirty shots for y'all before I head off to the office (not an easy one to shoot this big bugger)...

:-!

Thanks mate. The new Raysman has found its place in the collection and also met quite a few new friends in the old stable...

Congratulations Kiwi!!! :-! You did an incredible job photographing it, that domes crystal is not an easy one to do that with.

Thanks Doug. Still trying to get the right angle. It ain't easy...

(wonder why it's designated a DW if it's solar?):roll:

Good question. I think it's the same for the early Gulfmans too...

Either way, mate, it's a beauty - great photos!

Did you source it from a local seller?

Ta, mate. Yeah picked it up from a local collector who btw also has a Braz Frog for sale too which I'm extremely tempted to get as well...

:think:

Massive indeed. It measures in at approximately 50mm X 20mm. And to exemplify its size here are a couple of quick pics of it with my 5600...

If Casio decided to produce a MIRB 'Men in rusty black' G-Force version I think all Casio online stockists would go into Meltdown with the demand.:-d

A MIRB Raysman would be too cool for school, no doubt...b-)

BTW even though I just got my new Raysman I still very much want one of these...

DENG!!! I was choosing between my MIS Raysman and this one! I thought the G button was picked off or something! That's exactly it! What model number is this kiwidj?

Model ref: DW-9300BM-1T

Released in 1982, that one is the Men In Black Raysman.

EDIT: Correction> Released in 1998.

Bugger! Where the hell did I get that 1982 from?? :-s

Thanks for making me aware of that 1540...
