Bandai issued this DX Chogokin during that broadcast: a die-cast and plastic figure that separates into the three vehicles and locks together as the standing robot, with a red chest chevron, blue shoulders and white limbs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rocket punch and the other weapons are not with this example. The stickers and paint show scratches and lifting in places, as expected on a played-with period piece, and the chest panel opens as designed. Every measurement is taken by hand, with the piece laid flat and the tape read by eye, so please allow a gentle margin of about 1–3 cm (0.5–1 in) for the natural give of fabric, handwork and the human hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDetails\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"jp-details\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaker:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bandai\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLine:\u003c\/strong\u003e DX Chogokin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCharacter:\u003c\/strong\u003e Flash King, Choshinsei Flashman\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Die-cast metal and plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEra:\u003c\/strong\u003e Showa, 1986, original broadcast period\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Original period piece, not a reissue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rocket punch and spare weapons are not included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe rocket punch and the other weapons are missing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThere are scratches, rubbed paint and areas of lifted or missing sticker, visible on the robot and the vehicles.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe joints still hold a standing pose, and the three vehicles separate and combine.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition grade \u003cstrong\u003eB (good, with obvious signs of use)\u003c\/strong\u003e on the Japanese scale; see \u003ca href=\"\/de\/blogs\/news\/japanese-condition-ranks-explained\"\u003eJapanese condition ranks, explained\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAuthenticity \u0026amp; Care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSculpt, colour and the combining scheme are consistent with Bandai’s DX Flash King of 1986.
