Lot 105:
This collection features four vintage Japanese character toys and games produced during the 1980s. The lot includes a large Ultraman Super Exciting Game arena by Pony Toy, featuring artwork and characters under copyright by Tsuburaya Pro. Also included are two Takatoku Toys Itadakiman Kabutozemi mechanical toys, which utilize a transforming beetle-to-cicada mechanism based on the Tatsunoko Pro anime series. These figures are constructed of molded plastic and are housed in their original protective styrofoam inserts. The fourth item is a Kabaya Super Continuous Fire Gun Gum plastic model kit depicting the God Ginrai character. This kit is unbuilt and remains attached to its original red plastic runners, accompanied by a small instruction sheet. These pieces represent the high-demand era of Japanese transforming robots and tokusatsu merchandise. Overall dimensions approximately 13 x 13 inches.
Condition: The collection is in good vintage condition with varying degrees of completeness. The Kabaya model kit is unbuilt and remains on the original runners. The Itadakiman toys appear complete with original styrofoam, instruction manuals, and promotional stickers. The Ultraman game includes the main arena and internal packaging. The cardboard boxes show typical signs of age and handling, including corner wear, creasing, surface scuffing, and some adhesive residue from previous labeling. All components appear to be original parts from the period of manufacture.
