Space Jet Liner - Robot Changers
Originally designed by Takatoku in Japan for their Super Dimension Fortress Macross line and sold as the 'VF-1 Valkyrie', the model was later licensed to the Japanese company MARK.
MARK in turn distributed this figure via Select in the United States, Canada and Australia (and likely other regions) as the Convertors Maladroid, 'Zark'.
MARK also released Zark for their Robot Changers line sold in Europe renamed to 'Space Jet Liner'.
