Description from the seller
POPY / BANDAI / CEPPI RATTI - Gordian Deluxe Set "Self Separation" Robot - 1980 - First Italian Edition
Description:
Exceptional and rare vintage set from the famous Gordian robot (Gordian Warrior), in its Deluxe Set "Self Separation" version, produced in Japan by Popy / Bandai and distributed in Italy by Ceppi Ratti in 1980. This is the very first historic Italian edition (recognizable by the vintage "Protanias" inscription on the torso of the smallest robot).
This cult toy is based on the nesting dolls principle: the hero figure Daigo fits inside the Protteser robot, which nests inside Delinger, finally assembling inside the large Garbin robot.
Important note on authenticity:
The middle red robot (Delinger) originally had a broken arm, so it has been replaced with a Delinger robot that is strictly original and of the same era, sourced from the original Japanese Popy / Bandai version. The set is therefore 100% functional, authentic, and period-correct.
Condition:
• Box & Styrofoam: The original cardboard box is present and shows normal age-related wear (see photos), but the graphics remain vivid. Note that there is no tape/adhesive on the box. The top lid retains its original clear plastic inner film. The inner styrofoam is very clean and well preserved.
• Robots: The three robots (Garbin, replacement Delinger, Protteser) are in superb overall cosmetic condition. The joints function properly and the white plastics have retained a nice color.
• Accessories & Booklet: The set includes the extremely rare mini-figure of Daigo, the large chromed sword, the spear, the axe, the missiles, and the red shield. The original Japanese instruction booklet (mini illustrated catalog format) is included and in very good condition.
A superb vintage collectible piece, sound and ready to join a display case!
