Post Where Are You Belzor?
I know there was a Marmit release back in 2009, but does anyone know if the beloved Belzor will be revisted by another toy company any time in the future?

I had thought this was an original Marmit character for the longest time. I wonder why other companies haven't released versions of it.

I honestly don't know if it is or not. All I know is that there is not nearly enough Belzor out there.

not sure if this has been answered before - is this an original or based on a show/movie?

Baruzasu is from episodes 41 & 42 of the Japanese tv series AMBASSADOR MAGMA (Magma Taishi) known in the states as The Space Giants. There is a very nice write-up on Sci-Fi Japan.

Now that you mention it, the Space Giants thing does sound familiar. It's so weird seeing him in tokusatsu and no one someone's shelf.
