Post Iron King ID
Recently won this auction cheaply, and was wondering if someone could ID the maker of it:

Is it Bullmark? Popy? Is is sacrilege to unbag it? I doubt I could keep it bagged :)

Part 2 question:

Does anyone know where I could find more info on Non King Zaurus Popy toys? From some of the more obscure shows. Is there a checklist somewhere? I'm looking for other clear mid sized toys. I'm fascinated by Popy toys.

The logo on the lower right of the header looks like Takatoku.

Nice find- not too much yellowing!

Heres the only one I have from the clear Popy series. Off the top of my head there is also a Barom One, Kikaida, Kamen Rider, and Fireman. Kamen Rider seems to be the priciest (although still pretty affordable).

Here is another pic I found of a group of Popy clears (except Kikaider on the right end which is Takatoku):

There is a Mazinger as well. It is the most expensive of all of them. There is a similar Gatchaman figure with inserts, but it was not part of this series, but still by popy, and in a flying pose.

Additionally, there are three DX versions of these clears that come boxed on rock platform bases.
