Shogun Warriors Great Mazinga (Great Mazinger) is a 3½-inch Collector's Shogun Warriors figure based on the Japanese super robot Great Mazinger. It is easily identified by its black die-cast metal torso, blue plastic limbs, horned skull-like head, and large red plastic "V" chest emblem. The name change from Mazinga to Great Mazinga reflects the updated character design used in later Mattel jumbo and die-cast releases.
