Hello all.
Thanks admin for accepting me to your forum.
Im from Perth Australia and I collect Japanese Vintage Kaiju Sofubi and Vintage Tin Robots. I used to collect Art Toys but I got bored really quickly.
I have a newbie question, I got from a trade with other toys a Bandai 1984 Dolphin Robot with a clear car. Ive not seen the clear car before so Im wondering is this a bootleg?
Any information on this would be much appreciated as I dont know much these toys.
Cheers Desmond from Down Under.....

Is it a small clear machine dolphin car? If it's marked bandai then I would assume it is legitimate. Can you post a picture or a link to a picture from Google?

Ok, it's the Pla-Dela Machine Dolphin.
This is definitely not bootleg. Do you have the figure too? That is Machine Man.

Thanks S_Gokin.....I was using the Attachment button and it didnt work......Your tool bar tip works fine....Cheers....
Ginrai san, yes I have the figure too and it sits nicely and tightly in the car. Whole thing made of plastic as opposed to the ones I see on ebay which are die cast.....
The last picture has some kind of description from Mandarake but not much.....
I think my 6 year old has kidnapped this toy.....
Cheers all.... Des

Nice - this is a cool toy. I was always tempted to pick it up.
Also, welcome to the forum. I am a huge vinyl kaiju collector too. I'd love to see pics of your collection. Throw them up on the appropriate subforum.

Yah Ginrai, I took it back from my kid but only got the car....dunno where the figure went....hahahaaha Must be in his Power Ranger loot bag... Will look again....
Cheers Des

Yeah, I am on the hunt for a few of the large scales myself (have some, need others). But then again, I am on the hunt for a ton of standard sized stuff too! I hope to rearrange my collection soon and I will have to shoot new photos. But most of my vinyls will still be left in bins - just not enough display space.
