Get Get Gettaa! Gettaa Robo!

GA-07. The SEVENTH chogokin. 1975. Think about it for a minute. Let it absorb in. This is one of the founding fathers. This is one of the stones in the foundation of Japanese toy history.

The Mecharobo Gaiking is better known in the US as the Shogun Warriors ZARGON.

Muteking? Saizance? Doesn’t ring any bells??? Well, me too… It’s a shame though, because the anime gave Popy license to produce one of the coolest and uniquely designed toys…

While the rest of the USA is watching the Super Bowl, here I am reviewing Gold Lightan.

I picked up King Joe at the last East Coast Summit from my pal and fellow contributor Roger. I was jonesin’ for gokin and he had my fix.

Raideen (also sometimes spelled "Reideen" or "Raydeen") must have been produced in great numbers.

General Monster was the main bad guy in New Kamen Rider (aka Skyrider). I really am not a big Kamen Rider fan, but I picked up this guy because his name is GENERAL MONSTER.

I have always loved the vintage style Kenner Star Wars action figures. The simple sculpts, the neutral poses – they are embedded in my brain. I had always wondered how cool it would have been to have other characters from other series done up in the same fashion.

This toy was released in large numbers and is among the easiest to find Popy Jumbo Machinders today.
