An HLJ Japan exclusive! Limited to only 1,000 pieces! When it comes to fighter planes that transform into two-legged 'bots, forget those '80s-come-latelys Valkyries and Transformers; Groizer X was the first! Conceived by Gosaku Ota for Dynamic Planning, under the supervision of super-robo sensei supreme Go Nagai, Groizer X blasted onto Japan's airwaves and manga pages in 1976. It later enjoyed broadcast in various other countries and languages; known as "Groyzer X" in Italy and "Wu-Di Tai Kong Chuan" in Singapore, its Portuguese version was "Pirata do Espaco" and Spanish was "El Justiciero," to name just a few.

Now Groizer X gets its due at last, launching Yamato's GN-U Hagane (in Japanese, "gun'yuu" means "rival chiefs," and "hagane" means "steel") line of transforming die-cast toys! Made of die-cast alloy, ABS, and PVC, Groizer X is one hefty handful of a bomber craft at 15.5cm long, and can be transformed with interchangeable parts into the 20cm-tall Groizer Robo. Included are its Flying Torpedo weapon, effect parts, landing gear, a display stand, and four mini-mecha: the G-Jet, G-Shark, G-Tank, and--seen only in the manga saga--the Red Dragonfly.

Something else seen only in the manga is the paint scheme on this Groizer X special limited release, with green replacing the anime version's dark blue. This eye-grabbing version is limited to only 1,000 pieces, and we're pleased and proud to be bringing it to you!
