Claw Warrior Star Mite

This is the super rare Claw Warrior toy issued under the Star Mites toy line.  This is from Series Two of the toy line.  Series One was made by Shinsei, and these "UFO Commander 7 Series" toys were issued in the USA as Star Mites toys.  Series Two was manufactured by Empire Toys, and they featured some new and crazy toy designs.  While some of the toys within this new series are pretty common (e.g., Mars, Thor, and Zeus), the rest are quite rare.  In all the years I've been looking for these, I have only seen this toy for sale a handful of times.

The arms feature "hydraulic" claws. 

At first glance, it might appear that the head is a recast of the original Valcan I toy.  However, upon closer inspection, you can see many differences.  Its also worth mentioning that this head is plastic while the Valcan head is diecast. 

Here you can see some other Series Two Star Mites rarities also in the Robot-Japan gallery.
