Description: Up for sale is an original and vintage 2003 Argentina released action figure, and graded by AFA (Action Figure Authority) - DESTRUCTOR - from the FUERZA-T line and made by Top Toys. *** Top Toys Facts *** In the 1980s, the South American company Top Toys not only sold Masters of the Universe toys as a licensee in Argentina, but also had them produced giving collectors the same feel of the vintage toys, but offered many "variants" of these vintage figures which included many different body paint molds and weapons which are highly sought with today's collectors. In 2003, Top Toys dug up some of the old molds again, and created a completely new series with Fuerza-T, ("T-Force") which looked like Masters of the Universe, but apart from recycling molds had nothing to do with He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, but described as "The Defenders of the Earth". On the back of the packaging, the initial situation was explained: In the near future, the monsters from Intraworld have invaded the peaceful Earth in order to subjugate it. Only the group of heroes called Fuerza-T tries to protect the earth and its inhabitants. This DESTRUCTOR figure is modeled after the vintage Masters of the Universe figure CLAWFUL, has BEAST MAN's body sculpt, and carries SKELETOR's vintage havoc staff weapon and attached loin cloth, but painted red. This mint on card (MOC) figure was sent by me for professional grading to AFA (cgagrading.com), and received a very desirable high grade of 80+NM out of a possible 100 from the professionals at AFA. This DESTRUCTOR mint on card figure is sealed in a high quality clear acrylic plastic casing which is completely flawless (NO cracks), and will NOT move or separate inside due to aging glue and/or loose holding tabs and dividers. Additionally, as you can see in the pictures, the original AFA plastic bag protection that secures the AFA casing from dust and fingerprints has NEVER been removed from this item since it was shipped back to me from AFA (This DESTRUCTOR figure was graded February 2, 2022). AFA graded figures, vehicles, and accessories are the PERFECT way to protect and display your action figure collection, and in my opinion the SUPERIOR grading company available for submissions trusted with today's collectors. The official smaller red AFA classic style label inside the bottom right side panel reads: 80+NM (80 Plus New Mint) C85 B80 F85 (Card 85 Blister 80 Figure 85) Subgrades 2003 TOP TOYS FUERZA-T ARGENTINA RELEASEDESTRUCTOR 11619444 *** COLLECTOR'S NOTE *** According to AFA's population report, there has only been two (2) of these Top Toys Fuerza-T DESTRUCTOR figures in existence that have been graded at the time of this listing, and I am the collector responsible for submitting both of them! Don't miss this very rare opportunity with owning 1 of 2 in the world! This is a MUST HAVE for those serious vintage MOTU collectors that missed out on these Fuerza-T figures back in 2003, and wanted to get one graded! Considering the fact that this DESTRUCTOR figure is getting harder and harder to find unopened and mint on card (***ESPECIALLY IN GRADED CONDITION***) this would be an awesome Top Toys / Masters of the Universe vintage collection piece that is a must have to serious toy hunters like you!
