Micro Robot R1-R3 Real Type

In late 1982 following the new trend of realistic style robots, Takara released several of New Microman toys in "Real Type" color schemes. Instead of bright red, green and blue, the toys are in subdue tone of gray brown and maroon. Micro Robot 1-2-3 series were also re-released in "Real Type" colors as R1, R2 and R3. There were three "Real Type" schemes for each figures - Mountain Type, Forest Type and City Type. Beside the "Real Type" colors, Micro Robot 1-2-3 were also sold as plastic model kits by Nitto (under license from Takara. See the section on model kits here). The figures came in boxes with beautiful painted covers.
