Medicom 1/6 Kamen Rider V3 Destron Yoroi Gensui (ヨロイ元帥)
From Kamen Rider Wiki :
Marshal Yoroi (ヨロイ元帥 Yoroi Gensui?, 40-52) / Zariganna (ザリガーナ Zarigāna?, 51-52) - Destron's final general in plated armor who comes from Mongolia. Most of his monsters in his Armored Division are mutated versions of armored animals. He wields an oversized spiked mace in one hand and practices dark magic. Pronounces Destron as "Deeestron". He frames scientist Joji Yuki for treason, fearing his position in Destron is in jeopardy, creating a rival in Riderman. Marshal Yoroi became Zariganna in his final battle against Kamen Rider V3. After being defeated by Kamen Rider V3 and despite surviving the encounter, Zariganna was destroyed by the Great Leader of Destron for failing defeat V3. In Kamen Rider Spirits, he's restored in a new Crab Inhumanoid body and seeks to eliminate his former rival Riderman. He was ultimately destroyed by Riderman's Machine Gun Arm.
Watch THIS to know how the Marshall got defeated and eventual death.
Another Hyper Hobby exclusive and I have been hunting for this one for the longest if time. First picked up interest of the Marshal on his cool body of armor. During a trip to Hong Kong back in around 2005, it is going for about SG$2K... how to buy? And in eBay, asking price is always over a thousand bucks. 8 years later, someone is clearing his collection and I got it at half (or less) it's original retail price. Brand new in sealed box, finally captured one of my 1/6 grail on my 40th birthday. How appropriate and nice :) CSC isn't always dull and boring, it has it's up at times. You just have to be there at the right day, the right time.
Surprisingly, gear is in tip top condition and the joints are free to move around. Body did not fall apart though I did not perform any extreme poses. It came with both relaxed hands and a separate fist right hand and a ball mazed fixture left hand. As you can see here, both hands mounted on the Marshal.
He's so cool and definitely one of my favorite 1/6 action figures thus far. Still a few more bosses to go but it has proven that time and patience will pays off...
