"Ultra Rare" - that's how the seller described this figure. I guess that is somewhat true. I've been searching for a vintage Beast King Golion in eBay for years and this is the only time I've seen this. Occassionally the DX Golion do pop up once in a while on eBay but this little fella not so. I've seen a few Taiwan KOs of this. I made a best offer and am glad I won it. (There were a few other best offers). Here's the beautiful box art. The back was torn a bit.

It has a 'P' logo at the bottom and a Toei sticker on the top flap.

The height of this figure is about 4". The body is diecast, so it's quite heavy for such a small figure. It comes with a shield, a pair of wings and a pair of lion head missiles.

Yes , mini Golion here have 'rocket punch' shooting feature! Tested the shooting feature and the spring mechanism still works fine.. "Phew". (A concern for me because this toy is already 30 years old)

The lion head missiles are the same mold, and Victora didn't even bother to paint one green. Well... back in those days, these were cheap toys.

I am glad that my mini Golion joints are still tight, the chrome is shiny and the stickers is nicely in place and clean. The only down side is the blue lion head had a bit of discoloration. The blue lion is painted with a blue metallic paint.
