SUPER DIMENSIONAL CENTURY ORGUSS 07/03/83 - 04/08/84 onceived as an indirect sequel to the wildly successful "Super Dimensional Fortress Macross" series, Orguss never managed to achieve the same level of popularity as its predecessor. The story involved the detonation of a prototype weapon that scrambles the very fabric of space and time itself. Stranded on an unstable new Earth assembled from a hodgepodge of alternate realities, hero Katsuragi Kei rebuilds his boring ol' fighter jet into a towering, transforming robot dubbed "Orguss" (the god of war of one of said alternate realities) and launches into an adventure to restore the various dimensions to their original state. Although created by the same design team responsible for Macross, Orguss' fantasy-heavy story line never seemed to resonate with fans hungry for more realistic science fiction. Takatoku's toys from the series are considered classic expressions of the "perfect transformation" concept, but they're also extremely complex and fragile. Many of the Orguss toys were sold in American toy stores in the 1980's. Several bootlegged English-language boxed versions were also released which are nearly identical to their Takatoku counterparts. Various other bootlegs were also made and versions of the 1/80 "Variable Type" toys were part of Select's "Convertors" toy line.
