Varigale-X (バリガールX) is a ship used by the Gyandlar, typically to ferry Gadess's various captains and their troops between their mothership and the surface of Cronos. Its andrometal hull makes the ship nearly indestructible, and it has a variety of powerful weapons.

  • Varigale-X (1986)
    • ID number: MRG
    • Accessories: Missiles
Varigale-X was released by Bandai in the Machine Robo: Revenge of Cronos toyline, and can switch between ship and base modes. It features two spring-loaded missile launchers. The toy a recolour of the Jaguar Vulcan from the Super Sentai series Taiyou Sentai Sun Vulcan, a toy of which had been made by Popy before the company was reabsorbed by Bandai. As such it doesn't have a particularly great level of interactivity with Machine Robo toys, merely being about the right size for the likes of the Gyandlar Devils to stand up in.


Notes[edit | edit source]

I turned evil after Marvel Comics couldn't adapt my show in the US.
  • Yep, this was a good guys' ship in Sun Vulcan.
  • The base mode was never seen in the show.
