Do you know the anime scale "1/460 Ancient Robot Godiger" (Aoshima)? Assemble this original robot, which is the first in the series and has not yet been shown in an anime, with determination! 80's B-Grade Anime Plastic Model Natural History Vol.12
When will it end? "When will it end?" "Will it end next time?" But thanks to your support, this series of articles has lasted for a year. The item this time is "Ancient Robot Godiger," a robot originally designed by Aoshima (Aoshima Bunka Kyozai-sha), the same box size as the 300-yen Gundam, and priced at 300 yen at the time.
The title of this article is "B-Grade Anime Plastic Model," but this is not an "anime. Because it has not been broadcast on TV, released in theaters, or even released as an OVA. The reason why we picked it up, then, is because it says "Anime Scale 130mm Series" on the box.
But what exactly does "Anime Scale" mean? It sounds like a declaration by the manufacturer that although the mecha are fictional mecha from an anime, they were faithfully made to look like scale models ....... Well, I guess it's just momentum or a flirtation, but it's a word that represents Aoshima's 300 yen size.
And there is a storyline to "Godiger". It is printed gingerly on the side of the box, so let's settle down and read it carefully.
There are traces of a story, or a story that was intended to be popular, not natural, in this story setting. This 300-yen "Godiger" was released in March 1982. It was around the time "Battle Mecha Zabungle" started airing on TV, but I guess the image of robot animation had not yet been refined.
You know, what surprised me more than the story setting was the completed image on the side of the box. Usually, the pictures on the side of the box show the test shot assembled and painted. They even make the model pose in an unnatural way to show off the kit's movable specifications, don't they? However, they are not photos, but pictures.
Next, the weapon parts. The futuristic look of the gun, which is clearly different from the Gundam and Okawara style of realism, and the super-robot-like sword like the Seiryuu Sword are weapons that seem to capture the chaos of the robot anime culture of the early 80's.
