I found this guy and have no idea who he is. He stands 5 1/2" tall and shoots rockets off of his hips. Any help will be great. Thanks in advance.

Is the visor missing or has it just faded away?

Looks to be missing as you can clearly see the 2 insertion holes...

It's a vintage diecast Popy fig; a Goranger alright. He looks cool! Those rockets on his hips enable him to fly, like the rest of the Goranger team members. His visor is shaped like an "arrow"... when he touches it, a bow and arrow weapon forms in his hands; with which he fights against the enemy drone soldiers. BTW, Welcome to RJ! zozo-Magengar

Yep, I think you are right Mannix, but it also aired much later in the PI, I think it was 1979? 1980? I don't remember the exact date but remember reading about it. Yeah, Gorenger was the first super sentai show. Aired 1974.

Hey Vivi, I noticed you have two of the boys but only one Peggy, Momo or Pink Ranger (#4). Is it hard to find? The pink one that is?

Cool. I've been looking and I think its a knock off Transformer. He breaks down inot three parts that are all marked KINGDAM. Any idea of the value of my new robots? I only really collect the tall plastic shogun warriors. I'm clueless about the die-cast. Thanks again.

The little ones in the front row appear to be Popy figs: (Left to Right) Grendizer, Voltes V, and Great Mazinger. The back row are the chogokins figs: (Left to Right) Great Mazinger, the middle one I don't know his name, and of course your Aoranger. Nice finds! zozo-Magengar

King Dam was originally released under the Diaclone line under the name of Dia-Battles. It has since been released under many toy lines. Its a great toy, and I love the individual vehicle modes. Its fairly common.

OOps, my error... damn, sometimes I think that Combattler looks so much like Voltes... I'd better smoke fresher cigars.;D
