I have this MIB, I don't think Id ever sell it, but I also dont think many people want this (you really have to love Mazinger Z AND pandas lol). Super cool, diecast, shoots fists. Based on the very quirky Anime.

I've always kept an eye out for one, without it really being a goal. I think it's a nice...homage? Parody? Whatever it is, it works, and the quality of the toy seems to be higher than you'd expect from a one-off.

Mine still displayed in my cabinet, right next to his SOC cousins.

But I think I may post this for sale as well, so let me know.

I used to have this. Sold it when I moved as I had to downsize my collection. Really nice piece though. The normal people viewing my collection liked it a lot, it wasn’t as scary as Gaiking & Daiku Maryu!

Update: this thread inspired me to check around, and there was one available locally at a surprisingly good price.
It is a -delightful- little toy, from the packaging to the tiny little panda pilot. There's a tiny bit of yellowing on the missile hatch (and that color may never have been a perfect match, even when it was new), but other than that it's pretty much perfect.
I think it manages the combination of "super robot" and "whimsy" much better than, say, the SRC Mazinger Z Hello Kitty tribute.

Nothing fancy, but a good solid whimsical gokin for its time. Panda Z was quite popular back then for like a year or two, a lot of side products, stationaries...etc.
