Hong Kong toy brand "POSE+"'s METAL SERIES articulated die-cast robot product line is scheduled to release in December 2023, an articulated transforming toy of the protagonist robot "SASURAIGER" (Japanese: サスライガー, also translated as 'Wanderer') from the robot anime series "Galactic Gale Sasuraiger" (銀河疾風サスライガー)!
"Galactic Gale Sasuraiger" was also produced by Kokusai Eiga-sha (International Picture Company) and began airing on TV Tokyo in Japan in 1983. It is the final installment of the "J9 Series" trilogy, comprising 43 episodes. The story describes a future in the 30th century where human habitation has spread throughout the entire solar system, with over 80 colonized planets. While life appears peaceful and war-free, an organization called the "Bloody Syndicate" is secretly stirring.
After the protagonist, "I.C. Blues" (I・C・ブルース), won a large sum of money at a casino one day, he was suddenly challenged by the casino boss, "Bloody God," who wagered whether the protagonist could travel to 50 planets within the solar system in one year. Blues accepted the challenge, betting all his assets, and at the casino, he met the sharpshooter Rock, the beautiful Patty, the optimistic Peter, and "D.D. Richman," the man who provided the mysterious train vehicle, "J9-III." The group escaped Bloody God's pursuit, formed the team "JJ9," and prepared to embark on their journey, thus beginning the story.

And when transformed into its train state, it boasts an impressive length of 72 cm! The carriages attached to its rear can be used to store various small vehicles. The robot form also features excellent articulation, allowing for a wide range of cool poses, and comes complete with a full array of weapon accessories.
