Devilman Story

 

Devilman was a manga character created by Go Nagai (responsible for many of the classic 1970's design like Mazinger Z, Getter Robo etc.). Devilman was probably one of his more controversial creation. The story of Devilman revolved around Akira Fudo a young boy who was possessed by demon Amon. But because of Akira pure soul, he was able to control Amon power and used it to fight against the demons (under control of Lord Zenon) in order to save mankind. His battle let him to the ultimate showdown with Satan.

 

Microman 2004 came with new style figure stand. The stand features Microman "Da Vinci" style logo emboss on clear plastic with two styles of pegs  - one for the newer Microman 2004 figures and one for the vintage figures with 5mm port.

Takara originally released MA-09 Microman Devilman (TV Version) in July of 2004 as part of the Microman Micro Action Series line-up. The regular version, the Devilman figure was done in his common blue-green color. Takara later decided to do the green color version and the figure was sold via Toy's Dream Project website as limited edition. The figures were limited to 5000 pieces and were only available via Toy's Dream Project stores. Toy's Dream Project was a joint venture project by several Japanese toys company to form a neutral unit whereby a collaboration projects can be produced and by pass the normal licensing restriction. Toy's Dream Project also set up to sell "re-imported toys such as Hong Kong version of Masked Rider Souchaku Henshin for Bandai, or USA Edition of Transformers toys.
This version of Devilman was virtually identical to the regular version with exception of the dark forest green color. The figure also missing the "muscle" highlight that was used on the standard version. (Personally, I preferred the figure without the muscle highlight). The figure came with the wing pack, extra hands set and figure stand.
