So I have this guy in my collection of Kinnikuman / Ultimate Muscle but have no idea where he really belongs. He's a bit dirty and loved well, but there is nothing on the internet, so I was hoping someone here could ID? Hiragana/katagana etc. copywrite on his back, but I cannot read. I attached pics. The pics loaded at 90 degrees for some reason, not sure why. Any thoughts on who he is?

The katakana on the top and bottom are kind of mangled, but they probably say Bandai and Dynamic Pro. Bandai would be the company making the keshi and Dynamic Pro would have been the studio responsible for the media the character came from.

 

I don't know what the kanji in the middle line are, and I am afraid I don't know the character.

 

I'm sorry I can't narrow it down any further. That studio produced a lot of content.

 

 

 

Thank you

Dyanamic Pro is mostly Go Nagai, So its probally Gandizer/Mazinger Z/ Getter Robo Realated

Found him!

 

Thanks to BadLarry for the Dynamic Pro lead...I started browsing their shows to see if anything was likely......  Dynamic Planning - Anime News Network

 

 

Look up the show Robby the Rascal (Cybot Robotchi)....he's not the titular character but if you do an image search he'll show up sooner or later in the background.

 

Here he is in action (6:40 mark or so)

I thought he kinda had a Robotchi vibe to him. But never found a pic to match. Nice work.

OMG, you  all! That was a huge help. I've been searching on my own with no progress what so ever. And you all sweep iron your white horses. Guess I need to watch more anime. The more obscure the better. Hats off! Thank you.
