Popy: GA-45 Kagestar

Filed under: Co. POPY,Stephan Halder,Toy Love,Toy News — chogoman @ 11:08 am

The holidays are over and autumn has come. Autumn means: mostly shitty weather in germany.
Time for a new BROG, now 590 pixels wide. Thanks to the new TBDX site design. Great job guys!

Forgive me that I make a monster brog about this banal chogokin.
No Bullmark Robo Kress, no Takemi Pegas…just a “cheap” Popy GA-45 Kagestar.
Kagestar still underrated. But that’s ok for me, not every cool vintage toy has to cost >1K$.
Lets start with the show.


The Popy Kagestar chogokin (aka Za Kage Sutaa or The Shadow Star)
based on the 1976 NET/Toei TV show. Togeter with his female sidekick Belle Star
he kicks massive ass in the TV show.

Here you could see him fresh out-of-the-box. Kagestar comes with a plastic stand,
a mini catalog, plastic gun, projectiles, etc


Now I show you Kagestar’s special action feature.
You could put 2 batteries into the plastic stand and connect Kagestar
via a “power socket” on his back with the stand. Great feature!
Zakuramans blinking action is nothing ;-)

Kagestar has a cover on his chest you could open. When he’s connected to the stand
he starts to blink and you could see Belle Star on his chest monitor.

Every cool superhero has a motorbike.
Certainly Kagestar has one too, PA-65 Kage Roller.

Thats it guys, hope you like it.

cheers
