Vintage Bioman Maskman red Bandai 1987 old retro toy damaged

Description

Articulated figure representing a superhero character in red, white, and yellow colors, identifiable by his form-fitting suit and full-face helmet with a black visor. This is the red hero from the Japanese series Maskman, released by Bandai in 1987, typical of vintage toys inspired by 80s sentai. The figure has a glossy finish on the entire suit, with silver painted details on the belt and arms, as well as a yellow V-shaped pattern on the chest.

The character wears a red helmet with a wide black visor covering the entire upper part of the face, characteristic of the Maskman design. The arms are molded with white gloves featuring red lines, and the legs feature long red and white boots. The hands are sculpted in a closed position, one of them pierced with a small hole, likely intended to accommodate an accessory (not present in the photo).

The helmet face, torso, arms, and one leg are visible in the image. The figure's right leg is detached but visible in the foreground, showing a clean break at the knee. There are also signs of wear, including paint chips and scratches on the lower part of the suit and around the joints. The plastic shows signs of use consistent with the age of the toy.

This Maskman figure stands out for its color scheme faithful to the original series and a very distinct retro look. The overall appearance immediately evokes Bandai toys from the late 80s, with simple articulations and a slender silhouette. No additional accessories are visible in the photo.

The figure is presented standing, at a slight low angle, against a plain background. The detached leg allows for an assessment of the exact state of the break. No markings or logos are visible on the photographed side, but the style and colors correspond to Bandai productions for Maskman from 1987.

Condition
