Hey folks. I updated my website, Masterforce.org, with commercials for several Microman, Diaclone, and Henshin Cyborg toys. Please don't direct link to my files or I'll have to move them, and please save them to your HD instead of playing them in the browser window. If everyone plays nice and doesn't kill my bandwidth, I'll upload new commercials every week. Okay? Have fun.

Ginrai, those Microman and Walder ads are, for me, the most exciting thing I've downloaded in ages! Domo arigato! The animated Super Steel is groovy! I can't believe that Japanese for Microman is Merry Kooro Man. I'm going around singing it. I'll be checking your site more later. Thank you.
There were ads for British Cyborg way back in the 70s. I missed the first but I can still remember the second. They had precocious kids playing but I'd still love to see them again.

How'd you get your hands on these? Ripped them off a Japanese Takara VCD. |

Nope. Believe it or not, it was just a weird coincidence. My web hosts messed up a configuration file on the server. It's fine now. |

Haha - I think I know that VCD. It also had a load of Diaclone ads on it. For ages, my then 4 year old son would walk around chanting 'Dia---KLONN!'.
And all you cyborg-ites....If you like clear plastic with visible innards, get yourself a 1974 Popy RoboChoi/ RoboMeka - there's clear plastic domeheads on those - with tinted eyes that are of optically-pure plastic.
And to cap it, there's something a Cyborg can only dream of.
The internal 'machine' gizzards are blue-chromed. So what? you say - so are Cyborgs.
Yes, but Cyborg's don't rotate via a geared thumbwheel on his back do they?...
Don't be tempted though. Buying one of those will start you off on the dangerous and costly chogokin collector route....

Hi, Cybermuton! Aren't you going to post a picture or a link to this wonderful toy? I'd post one to my own one if I knew how to/could be bothered to set it all up  However, if you go to good old Toyboxdx and scroll down to the GA28, you'll see his box... www.toyboxdx.com/popy/popy_data/ga.htmand on www.geocities.com/Tokyo/Bay/8928/group2.htmyou'll see a picture of him. Sadly neither show the full glory of his head, but they'll whet your appetite... |

Ginrai, any Henshin Cyborg or Microman ads, indeed all that you have if possible, eventually, please! Is there one with Android A or the Invaders?
Cybermuton, thanks for the links! I have seen him before and saved a picture once. He was on Ebay, described as being by Takara, which threw me. I think he went for a lot. I didn't know about the moving parts. He's cool, but cartoony enough for me to live without.

Well, I plan on putting new ones up every week, but there are only five or six Henshin Cyborg ads total. I don't recall seeing any Invaders, but I do remember seeing Android A, so I'll try to get that one up this weekend. Don't worry, it'll be a long time before I run out of Microman ads. There are a LOT of them. I guess it'll be Robotman this weekend, then? |

Okay, Masterforce.org updated with more commercials. Turns out I was wrong and there aren't any commercials with Android A in them. No clue why I imagined there were. So instead I uploaded Cyborg Station CX-1, Great Robot Base, and Robotman/Biotron. Enjoy, folks. www.masterforce.org/commercials/index.html |

Great! I never knew Cyborg worked as a mobile DJ in between skirmishes with King Walder.
Great Movie, let's have them all!
Your contribution is much appreciated.

Haha. Yeah, the awesome disco lights gets me every time. I'll put up some more next weekend. I think there are only six Henshin Cyborg commercials in total, so I'm gonna run out pretty quick, but I'll keep putting up Diaclone and Microman until I run out. I'm also gonna put up some weird other Takara stuff, like Gakeen.
In other news, I found Dr. Katagai and Waruder Shaft. Unfortunately, Waruder Shaft's trenchcoat turned out to be really cheap and sort of melted itself to the interior of the box. Maybe he'll go back to being just a regular King Waruder II General. Sad.
But I am working on a new thing for my site: Dr. Katagai - Battle Scientist!

Hey Ginrai, I have an extra Nazi trenchcoat and Cap still in the box. Maybe it'd be good for Konig Valderschefdt. I thought I would use it, but one is enough, I need some naked cyborgs around, or else how are they going to reproduce? If you are interested I can send you a photo, I'll sell it for what I bought it for. It makes Shaft Walder's coat look like a sissy-jacket.
