Spending most of his time swearing terrible vengeance on Pan-taro, the evil science hamster Dr. Jangary has been building his own super mecha to oppose his nemesis. Behold: Black Ham-Gear!!Black Ham-Gear is Dr. Jangary's answer to the unstoppable Panda-Z... despite wearing what appears to be a giant make-shift bandage on its chest. Black Ham-Gear features articulation at the shoulders, wrists, and legs. It has a surprisingly detailed paintjob considering the material.
Like Panda-Z, Black Ham-Gear also has a tail, the function for which, I remain uncertain. The copyright, clearly, is used to cover his ass.Dr. Jangary gets to sit in a snappy cockpit with lots of readouts to tell him the operational status of his mecha and somehow controls the humanoid form with a pair of joysticks. Thankfully, Dr. Jangary himself also comes with articulation at his shoulders to access those joysticks... which, puts him a notch above his enemy who had no articulation at all.Overall, I'm very happy with this and only wish Robonimal had taken off to bigger success and spawn more of these vinyl toys. So far I am only aware of 2 more in this scale - both are Rescue Ham-Gear mecha buddies for Panda-Z (one is a repaint of the other). And they seem even more rare than the ones I do have. That's a shame because the Ham-Gears also came with cool interchangeable drill and shovel for hands. :(
