Goldorak Popy Bandai metal figurine, Japan 70s robot, complete

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This figurine depicts the robot Grendizer (UFO Robot Grendizer), an iconic character from 1970s Japanese animated series. The model presented is a creation of the Popy brand, a subsidiary of Bandai, renowned for its licensed Japanese toys. The item is immediately recognizable by its massive silhouette, broad shoulders, and vibrant colors, faithful to the original robot's design.

The front shows a combination of metallic silver hues, bright red on the breastplate and forearms, navy blue on the legs and shoulders, and yellow accents on the lateral horns of the head. Grendizer's characteristic face, with its golden eyes and prominent horns, is clearly visible. The arms are equipped with detachable axes, typical of the accessories associated with this figurine.

Stickers are present on the torso, with "UFO" inscriptions and Japanese characters, typical of the official license. The overall finish features a shiny metallic appearance on some parts (thighs, torso), while other areas are matte or lacquered. The figurine stands on two robust legs, each with a central red line visible on the front.

Sculpted details include visible articulations at the shoulders, elbows, and knees, as well as a central breastplate adorned with a chrome-plated diamond-shaped element. The hands are molded to accommodate accessories, here half-moon-shaped weapons, attached to each arm. The static posture, arms at the body's sides, highlights the symmetry of the classic design.

Condition

Used item, sold as is. Visible signs of wear on the paint, especially on the legs and arms. The stickers show some signs of use but remain legible. The visible accessories are present in the photo.

Did you know? Popy, a subsidiary of Bandai, launched the "Chogokin" (literally "super alloy") series in the 1970s, referring to robots from manga and anime. Grendizer was one of the first models marketed in this series, marking the beginning of globally successful Japanese die-cast toys.
