Pop Culture Time Capsule: TV Memorabilia & Vintage Toys
Lot 215:
Description
This lot features two vintage transforming robot sets from the Takara Kronoform line, specifically the Terminators Evil Robot Force series. The first item is the Wargon Robotic World set (No. 012), which is designed for three distinct insect-themed robots to combine into a single 8.5-inch giant attack robot. The components are constructed of molded plastic with vibrant red, green, and chrome-plated finishes. The second item is the Togor Robotic World motorized search probe (No. 004). This set features a black and red robot capable of transforming into a motorized probe. It includes original accessories such as yellow missiles still attached to the plastic sprue, two miniature figures, and an unapplied decorative sticker sheet. Both sets are housed in their original illustrated cardboard packaging, marked Made in Macau for Takara Toys Corp., NY, with a copyright date of 1984. Dimensions for the lot are approximately 16 by 11.5 inches.
Condition: Both items show signs of age and play wear. The Wargon set is noted as incomplete; a handwritten label on the box front indicates it is missing parts, specifically one of the three robots and the missiles. The Togor set appears more complete with unapplied stickers and missiles on the sprue, though the motorized mechanism is untested. The original boxes exhibit significant shelf wear, including creasing, edge tears, corner blunting, and various vintage retail price stickers. Internal styrofoam trays are present but show some staining and wear.
Notice to bidders: The absence of a condition report does not imply that the lot is in perfect condition. Photos are considered part of the condition report.

Condition report:
All figures remain in their original, unopened plastic blister packaging on illustrated cardboard backing cards. The packaging exhibits moderate shelf wear consistent with age, including softening at the corners, creasing along the edges, and some surface scuffing. Several cards retain original retail price stickers or promotional labels. The plastic blisters remain largely intact and attached to the cards, though some may show light surface wear. The figures themselves appear in mint, unplayed-with condition as factory-sealed.
