#91 Cyborg SW26

Domo arigato

This mechanical themed humanoid matches his name as Cyborg with the SW26 emblazoned on his forehead as a nod to the model numbering of such iterations. Though it’s not clear if it stands for anything further but to the English speaking markets introduced to the character by the Mattel M.U.S.C.L.E. import of the original keshi series he’s just an odd character amongst many.

Originally created by the collective artistic duo Yudetamago as one of the lesser known secondary combatants’ roster that’s ever expanding in the Kinnikuman universe. A reflection of the fusion of man and machine embodying a classic sci-fi aesthetic his odd facial expression and less exaggerated physical physique make him stand out in the silhouettes of the many superhuman wrestlers of the story arcs.

Mechanically enhanced the character appears the typically populate background competitions in the tournament brackets and supplemental character lineups. While he doesn’t have a major part in the story roles this bizarre Chojin suggests core traits making him damage resistant with a reinforced metallic body.

Not a fierce competitor but featuring a few signature moves including the Cyborg Press, Mechanical Crush, and the Steel Arm Smash using his reinforced limbs to batter opponents. However, to the North American markets unaware of his origins or identity in general he still found himself in the memories of many for this nostalgic and creative series of figures.
