TV Show
First aired
Popy GA-09 Chogokin Raideen, 1975
This is where chogokin learned to transform. Raideen folds from robot into the God Bird, making it one of the first die-cast transforming toys ever made, and it still fires its fists and carries a detachable shield and bow. Condition and variant matter here: the very first run had white painted legs, while later runs switched to chrome, so check the legs before paying first-version money.
