Description

Two vintage Japanese mecha-themed toy vehicles manufactured by Takatoku Toys c. late 1970s to early 1980s. Both items are part of the Z-Character Gokin series, constructed from die-cast metal and plastic. The first vehicle, identified as Koguma (Koguma-go), is a green and red mechanical unit with articulating arms and a visible cockpit. The second vehicle, identified as Hiryu Z Danper, is a red, white, and blue transport truck featuring a stylized dragon head emblem on the side panels. Each 4″ H x 6 1/2″ W x 3 1/2″ D.


Condition report:

The items are in their original retail packaging. The boxes show signs of age and shelf wear, including edge and corner scuffing, minor crushing, and surface creasing to the cardboard. The clear plastic windows are intact but show light surface scratching. The toys have not been removed from the boxes for inspection; however, they appear largely intact from the exterior. A small area of paint loss or scuffing is visible on the dragon emblem of the Hiryu Danper.
