I'm pretty sure you've all heard this term before in relation to collecting, but I wanted to know what your own personal grails are. I know that Dino and Dragon bucklers are common grails for people, though my own would probably be owning all of the Bakryu (Or Burstosaurs if you prefer) from Abaranger, in addition to every plate and variation they made for the Dino Brace.

Mine was the OOO Driver...until I got it Now it's Medal Set SP, since it's the only set you can't get in Candy Toy Form (Which is the kind I can usually find)

Probably Engine-Oh G12/RPM Ultrazord, I really wish I was into Power Rangers when RPM was on the air.

I don't really have much of a toku grail right now. My last ones, the Bandai vinyl 8" Power-Up Gigan from Final Wars and the 6" Titanosaurus, were both purchased last year. I'd like to own GMK Baragon again, or finally pick up Orga, but neither are a high-priority.
I think the closest thing I have to a grail right now are the vinyl figures of the first two monsters from Ultraman Max: Grangon and... the blue guy. Lagoras, Lagorath, and a million other variations of his name attached to a very awesome modern kaiju design. After his evolved form, his suit probably got recycled into something in Mebius, who knows. Anyway, these guys. I bought both of them for less than retail on HLJ when they were new, back in 2005. You can imagine how little I paid! A short time later, I figured I was done with the whole idea of collecting Ultraman toys, keeping only my Nexus monsters and selling almost everything I owned from Max and Mebius, nearly complete sets of both. Of course years later, Max and Mebius kaiju are nearly impossible to find stateside or cost ridiculous amounts of money when you do find them. These two in particular were among my favorites and have never been reissued. At least Natsunomeryu got reissued, even if it was of poorer quality paint-wise. I will never see these two fellows at retail again.

So a "grail" is something you want but can't get? Okay, I'll bite:
Complete Selection Faiz Gear.
