バンダイ ウルトラマン80 スペースマミー - Bandai Ultraman 80 Space Mammy

レッツ ・ゴー・ UGM! U-G-M!
Lets go UGM...U-G-M!

The Space Mammy was a cool ship, but it didn't seem to go with the Sky Higher or Silver Gull. Design wise it seems to fit the animated "The Ultraman" from the year earlier.

This model kit was a product of the new Gundam age of realisim in plastic models, and it shows. It doesn't include a wind-up motor. Instead its a great replica of the ship, and includes a small model of Ultraman 80 to pose right next to it.

このモデルキットはプラスチックモデルのリアルのガンダムの年齢のプロダクトで あり、示す。 それはゼンマイモーターを含んでいない。 その代り船の大きいレプリカはそれの隣で正しく提起するために、ウルトラマン80の小さいモデルを含み。

バンダイ「マスコミシリーズ」No. 73 ウルトラマンタロウ ZAT ラビットパンダ - Bandai "Masukomi" Series No. 73 Ultraman Taro ZAT Rabbit-Panda

Well now you can say you have seen it all...presenting the Rabbit-Panda from Ultraman Taro. By far the goofiest "garrison" vehicle in the entire series (a very close second is the "Roady," MAC's street transportation from Ultraman Leo). I think if the designers left the clown nose off the front, it would be a bit more appealing, but Taro was a series that was all about overdoing it. Like its companinon vehicle the Wolf 777, the Rabbit-Panda has every square inch covered with junk. Somewhere under it all is a very embarrassed Honda delivery van.

I was amazed at how detailed and substantial this model kit is. Its approximately 1/24th scale, so if it were built it would display nicely with the Bullmark "TDF Pointer," the Hasegawa "MAT Vehicle" and the Marusan "TAC Panther." Why didn't anybody make a UGM Mazda RX-7?

Like other kits of this vintage and genre, expect to pay a few yen if you find and want one. I have seen these go for as high as 9600 yen. Oy!
