Mazinger Z

Although ugly in it’s own right, this representation of Mazinger Z may actually look nicer than the previously discovered toy from Argentina, the Paladin de la Justicia. At least it has legs. And I have pictures to prove it.

The toy is about 15″ tall, though maybe just a bit more if you measure all the way to the tip of the horn on the head. That horn is interesting, too. I wonder why it was added?

The body of the toy was cast in blue polyethylene with painted red and silver highlights, but the fists and head were cast in silver, with just the eyes painted red. There is limited articulation as usual. You can rotate the head, arms, fists and I think even the legs. I’m not digging this guy out again to check. No one cares anyway. 😉

I’ve also seen this toy with a yellow head with black highlights.

Not long ago, I commented that I’ll occasionally publish a review for no other reason than to show the world “this exists”. This has been one of those times.
