Lot 92:
Six vintage Japanese mecha and robot-themed plastic model kits and transformable toys, representing the golden age of 1980s anime merchandising. The lot includes a Takara 1/24 scale Scopedog (ATM-09-ST) from the "Armored Trooper Votoms" series, an Aoshima 1/240 scale Zambot 3 from "Invincible Super Man Zambot 3," and an Arii 1/12 scale A.T.A.C. Charles De Etouard from "Super Dimension Cavalry Southern Cross." Additionally, the lot contains a Gakken "The Henshin Robo" Bartley VR-038-L transformable riding suit from "Genesis Climber MOSPEADA, " two Crown "Variation Robo" snap-fit motorized kits featuring a Harrier jet and a Space Shuttle, and a "Scopeman" binocular robot from the Practical Micro Change Series. These items are constructed primarily of molded plastic and represent various manufacturers including Takara, Aoshima, Arii, Gakken, and Crown. This assembly provides a comprehensive look at the "Real Robot" and "Super Robot" design trends of the era. Largest box measures approximately 13.5 x 8.5 x 2.5 inches.
Condition: Most kits appear to be in an unbuilt state with plastic components still contained within their original factory-sealed bags. Instruction manuals are present for the model kits. The Arii Southern Cross kit remains in its original factory shrink wrap, though the wrap is partially torn. The Gakken Bartley box exhibits significant wear and a torn top flap. Overall, the cardboard packaging shows age-related wear consistent with storage, including surface scuffing, edge fraying, minor tears, vintage price stickers, and some old tape repairs. The Scopeman toy is housed in its original box with a clear plastic window.
