REGULUS CAR: THE UGLIEST SPACE TOY EVER?

We've seen some turkeys on Moonbase but this might take some beating.

The Regulus Car.

What the heck is it?



At least the rear reminds me a bit the of the Zero-X engines as seen on this You Tube video by Mick Hall.



What do you think readers?

  1. Quite a wreck yet could be a challenge to see what sources "inspired" this disastor.

    The head of the driver is based on the black lion from Golion/Voltron (lionbot). The emblem on its chest is the shield that Golion/Voltron uses in combined mode.

    The body and arms seem based on the RX-78-2 Gundam from the original Mobile Suit Gundam series.

    No real idea on the actual sword and shield this thing carries though. That said, the sword reminds me of Side Man from Silverhawks but that is mainly due to the somewhat similar but not exact shape. Side Man was Bluegrass' guitar/hawk companion.

    The rest has me dumbfunded. Grats on the unique find ;)

    1. intriguing breakdown Lance. You so know your figures. I've added more sword and accessory detail from the auction site gallery in case it helps. So could a Voltron or Gundam collector be tempted do you think?

  3. Yo tengo el mismo con todas sus piezas y luces originales, es extraño pero ofrece una durabilidad que ya la quisieran muchos, 40 años y lo tengo como si lo hubieran fabricado ayer
