After teasing them over a month ago, Bu Toys has just fully revealed their upcoming Space Ironmen Kyodain figures!
Based on the 1976 Shotaro Ishinimori live action series Space Ironmen Kyodain (Uchuu Tetsujin Kyodain) an updated version of these characters made an appearance in the Kamen Rider Fourze Movie: Space, Here We Come. Bu Toys however is giving the hardcore collector what they want with these roughly 7.8″ (200mm) scale figures of the original Skyzel & Grounzel as they appeared in the classic TV series.
If you’re an obscure tokusatsu fan (like me) this is definitely an exciting announcement. We’ll keep you informed as release info becomes available for these figures!
The original Space Ironmen, Skyzel & Grounzel, from Uchuu Tetsujin Kyodain are on the way!
Not to be confused with their modern updates from the Fourze Movie: Space, Here We Come. So far we only have a teaser image confirming their size, 200 mm or roughly 7.8". Pricing & release date are to be determined. But for now if you're a huge fan of obscure tokusatsu like me, this is fantastic news.
I've never heard of these guys before. Which made me look up the intro at least, and it features a Japanese woman singing until she suffers from a severe mental breakdown. Neat.
Wow. Those are gorgeous. I may have to look into getting those when more details creep out.
Also the blue one can transform into a launch pad and the red one a rocket.
I'm one of those plebs who only know them (And the black knight character) from the Fourze movie.
But this is neat~
Oh hell yes. Definitely count me in for this pair.
What I like about Kyodain is that they have a very timeless retro look in my opinion. I could probably put these on a desk or shelf and people who know absolutely nothing will assume it must be one of those modern designer toys.
They're beautiful. I'm going to go look them up. I'm guessing they were heroes before the Fourze update?
I don't know why, but when Toei revived the Akumizer 3 and the Space Ironmen Kyodain, they turned them into villains.
Kind of surprising that when Inazuman returned, he actually remained a hero
