Offered here is a collectible set of two vintage transforming vehicles, Zig Zag No. 5 and Rube No. 6, both preserved in their original illustrated blister-card packaging.
These fascinating little machines are much more than ordinary toy cars. Each vehicle transforms into an individual robot and also forms an essential part of a much larger combining robot known as PUZZLER.
The Story Behind Puzzler
Produced by Bandai in Japan during the golden age of transforming robot toys, the Robo Machine Puzzler series was an imaginative concept combining six individual robot vehicles into one impressive giant robot.
The complete team consists of:
1. Tic Tac – Head
2. Pocket – Arm
3. Cross Word – Arm
4. Jig Saw – Body
5. Zig Zag – Leg
6. Rube – Leg
When all six robots are collected, they can be assembled into one spectacular giant robot.
Included in This Lot
No. 5 – ZIG ZAG
A beautiful blue futuristic sports car that transforms into a miniature robot and forms one leg of the giant Puzzler.
No. 6 – RUBE
A stylish black classic automobile that transforms into a miniature robot and forms the other leg of the giant Puzzler.

Original Vintage Packaging
Both toys come with their original colorful Bandai blister cards, featuring spectacular retro-futuristic robot illustrations, transformation instructions, and diagrams explaining how all six vehicles combine.
