Description from the seller

From: Mazinger Z (Super Robot Wars)

This piece is an authentic original Japanese vintage promotional poster featuring the iconic super robot Mazinger Z.

Originally released in 1997 as a non-commercial arcade prize by Banpresto for Japanese game centers, this B2-size poster was part of the “Banpresto Character Poster” series connected to the Super Robot Wars game series. These promotional posters were produced in limited quantities as collectible game center prizes and were never intended for standard retail sale, making surviving examples increasingly difficult to find today.

Created by legendary manga artist Go Nagai, Mazinger Z remains one of the most influential robot designs in anime history and played a foundational role in establishing the anime robot genre.

Please note that this is a genuine vintage collectible item from 1997. Despite careful storage, age-appropriate wear and minor imperfections may be present. Buyers are encouraged to examine all images carefully prior to purchase.

Seller's Story

Japanime Art Gallery is a Japan-based art gallery specializing in authentic anime and manga production art and historically significant collectibles. We primarily curate original animation cels, original drawings, and production materials created during the golden era of hand-drawn Japanese animation, from the 1970s to the 1990s. In addition, we carefully select rare posters, official reproduction artworks, reproduction manuscripts, and related materials that represent the history and cultural context of anime and manga. All works offered by Japanime Art Gallery are selected based on our independent curatorial standards, with a strong emphasis on authenticity, historical background, cultural significance, and preservation condition. Even when offering reproduction works, we only handle officially produced, exhibition-related, or limited-distribution items that hold genuine collectable value. Our mission is not simply to sell artworks, but to elevate anime and manga art as a recognized and respected category within the global art market, and to preserve and pass on its cultural value to future generations. We see ourselves as long-term custodians of anime and manga art, responsible for preserving, contextualizing, and introducing these works to the world as cultural and artistic assets.
