Bullmark DX Machine Blaster I

Robo Kress (4*)

Most of the die-cast toys reviewed thus far are made by Popy/Bandai.  I will periodically include toys from other manufactures from now on. 

An in-depth article on Machine Blaster toys can be found in the January 1998 review from Cool Japanese Toys.  I therefore won't go into details here. 

Like most of the Bullmark robots, this DX Machine Blaster toy is made of bulky chunks of die-cast metal.  Its crude appearance is in sharp contrast with most of the Popy die-casts, which are rather refined.  However, Bullmark robots' clumsy appearances translate into their inherent charms to many Bullmark collectors, and this one is no exception.  The head of Robo Kress can be detached to form a space ship with an accessory piece included in the toy as shown below.
