Nice!
Lion-Maru is a character I've often flirted with collecting...some really nice toys have been made of him.

Yes!
The Bullmark one is great, too.
There was one that came out just a few years back, a deluxe RAH-type figure (tho I don't think it was Medicom) that came with real die-cast metal weapons! I've often thought of grabbing one of those....

It was maybe Henshin-cyborg99 by Takara, I think. That was also great figure!!!
Or small one?

Metyagojira - That's a great looking figure. Very nice get. Beautiful condition for a vintage too - especially considering the hair.
It could have been the Henshin 12", but I have seen another range of retro styled 12" from another company. They come in tan coloured boxes. I want to say from Bandai, but really aren't sure who it is that made them. They may have done a Lion-Maru. The accessories that come with these 12" seem really quite nice.
Anyone esle know what I'm talking about??

There was definitely the Cyborg 99, the 8" (or RAH220) size one by Hyper Hero, and I alsoi have one of a different brown Lion-maru costume on a poseable 12" figure by ...errr... someone, who did Rainbow man and some Star Wars guys in ultra poseable 12" versions...but it wasn't Medicom.. My memory is shocking lately!
Oh yeah, that figure you posted is great by the way!
