## Description
Thank you for viewing this item.

Fighting Gordian
Brand: Popy
No accessory parts included.

The items in the images are all that is included.

No outer box.

The main body has scratches and dirt present.

There is some peeling of the stickers on the main body.

Please check the images for the condition of scratches and other details.

The base of both arm connections has cracks, but there is no wobbling when attached.

The rocket punches work normally with both arms.
I believe it is in relatively good condition considering its age (in my personal opinion).

As this is an older item, please bid only if you agree to no claims and no returns.

Each part will be disassembled and wrapped in bubble wrap for packaging.

## Collector note
Popy's Fighting Gordian line (1979–1981) occupies a niche but devoted collector space within vintage super robot die-cast—these were mid-tier production runs typical of post-Popy's acquisition by Bandai, making loose examples without original packaging significantly scarcer than their Shogun Warriors exports. Garbin is a secondary mecha from the series, meaning original Popy domestic releases command premium pricing, especially with functioning mechanical features like rocket punches intact despite age-related stress fractures. The visible wear and sticker degradation are expected for unboxed 40+ year-old specimens, but structural soundness of joint mechanisms and movement systems directly impacts collector valuation; the cracks at arm bases are cosmetic concern rather than functional dealbreaker if assembly holds.
