His design is one of Toho's most original: a conical, ringed drill for a nose, owlish eyes set high on the head, a segmented armoured body and a short, spiked tail. Decades later he returned to the Godzilla films, but collectors prize the Showa robot above all.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBullmark, the Tokyo maker that carried the kaiju soft vinyl tradition forward from Marusan in the late Showa years, gives him a compact, upright stance and a deeply ridged sculpt. The drill nose, banded limbs and plated chest are picked out in silver, the joints and chest panel in a warm orange, all sprayed by hand over green vinyl so the colours melt into one another. The rear view reveals ribbed orange back plates and the tapering tail with its spiked ridge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBullmark's Moguera is known as one of the scarcer figures in its Toho line, and it is seldom offered in this clean, complete state.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDetails\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"jp-details\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaker:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bullmark\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCharacter:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moguera\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFilm:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Mysterians (Toho, 1957)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Soft vinyl, hand-sprayed paint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColourway:\u003c\/strong\u003e green with orange and silver spray\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMarkings:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bullmark stamp under one foot, a small circled mark under the other\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e please ask the Desk for an exact measurement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackaging:\u003c\/strong\u003e figure only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWear consistent with age: light rubbing and some softening of the spray paint in places.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmall scuffs and marks to the soles; no breaks or major damage are visible.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEvery photograph is part of the description.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition grade \u003cstrong\u003eB (good, light wear)\u003c\/strong\u003e on the Japanese scale; see \u003ca href=\"\/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\u003eChecked and photographed in Japan before dispatch.
