Branded to Justen Products (of Itasca, Illinois (?)) they were further
credited to a Division Sales
and/or/of/for Marks International,
they seem to be called 'Iron Troops' and there should be six poses in the set.
Both the standing ones have lost weapons
from their hands, I don't know if that is due to play, age, or something more
deliberate.
They look to be Japanese TV serial
characters along the lines of Ultraman, Atomic Boy, Zone Fighter, VR (?) or those early Superheroes who
fight some of the Godzilla monsters - I don't know enough about the Japanese
end-of-things! It's not clear either (in part due to the faces being similar to
other characters) whether they are robots or androids or something.
Manufactured in a dense black PVC or vulcanised-rubber,
with good moulding/detail and an overall, overspray with a flat or silk
aluminium colour, the kneeling one is wearing a different outfit to the other
two (who both look a bit female?) and it may be that the full set is three each
of two 'sides'?
