GA-48 Granzel
Description
Granzel, also known as Ground Zero in some circles, is quite a unique toy. The aesthetics of the toy have no equal, as there are wheels as well as pipes and bright colors. The robot shape has a clearly human form with some interesting cast in features.
90% of the robot is diecast and chromed out glory. The toy's heft will not disappoint.
Hidden behind the robot head is, eek, a human face! Push the tab behind the mask to reveal the face behind the mask.
Hidden behind the chest is a double missile launcher.
Space Ironmen Kyodain (宇宙鉄人キョーダイン Uchū Tetsujin Kyōdain?) was a Japanese tokusatsu science fiction superhero television series. The show, like numerous others of its type and era, were produced as a joint effort between manga artist Shotaro Ishinomori and Toei Company producer Hirayama Tôru. It premiered in 1976 and ran for 48 episodes. The show is well known for its strange plot and costume design, rapid-fire and purposefully disorienting editing, and unique, sometimes surreal, atmosphere. Actors Yūsuke Natsu and Takeshi Sasaki starred as Skyzel and Granzel respectively.
