Yep, it's a repro. A really good option to the originals. I've got Ultraseven, Inazuman, and Spectreman, all scored for about the same price as the Barom-1. Can't get a much better deal than that. Still need that Kikaida, though. Also, the "talking" aspect is a neat concept, but it's really hit or miss if it actually works. |

All of teh repro talkers are abpur 1/2" shorter than the originals, as they were molded off original figures, not from original molds. Also, all repro talkers have green plastic talk boxes, not flesh colored talkboxes. Some of the boxes are different from the originals as well. The repros were: mirrorman inazuman barom-1 kikaida kamen rider-1 ultra-seven spectreman gokinozaurus from spectreman getta-1 mazinger-z an I believe one other ultra character but my mind is fuzzy right now. Super7 issue 9 has a comprehensive article on the originals and repros. |

if you record the voice and run it backwards it says 'I am the Walrus, worship Satan, collect Dunkneez' |
