Description

Three vintage 24-inch scale Jumbo Machinder style robot figures from the Shogun Warriors line, manufactured by Mattel in the mid-1970s. The collection includes two Gaiking figures and one central Dragun figure, also known as Getter Dragon. These toys are constructed from heavy-duty molded polyethylene plastic with vinyl heads and components. Each figure is marked MADE IN JAPAN on the reverse with copyright attributions to Toei Animation and Dynamic Pro. The Gaiking figures are characterized by their yellow and blue color scheme, large horns, and shoulder-mounted missile launchers. The central Dragun figure features a red and blue color scheme with Japanese katakana text on the belt translating to Dragon. All three figures are equipped with integrated rollers on the underside of the feet. Each figure 24″ H x 10″ W x 5″ D.
