Special Forces Group Spiral Zone was a very short released series of action figures and equipment manufactured by Bandai in 1/12 scale in 1985. Not many pieces were released with only 12 releases, which were numbered on each box as “Acts”, with Bull Solid as Act 1.

Many Macross, Mospeada, Southern Cross, and Robotech collectors have mixed feelings about the non Bandai and Takatoku Robotech toys produced by Matchbox, specifically its 3 3.4 scale figures and their accessories.

CDX's first ever plush doll review! Oh, the HORROR!!!

Help solve the mystery of Construction Robo Barudam!

At the time it seems that everybody was manufacturing or bootlegging Fang of the Sun Dougram figures in 1985. Revell was releasing Dougram 1/48 and 1/72 scale under the Robotech Defenders monikers and Dougram action figures were available at big chain toy stores even though America didn’t even have the luxury of the cartoon series on TV. That’s just the way it was.

A very recent aquisition of mine... But being a massive Robotech nerd, you could easily ask, what took ya so long!?

Join me for a trip down memory lane as we return to the Summer of 1985 as I recap one of my fondest toy memories. A classic review of my Voltron bootleg, Lionbot.
