SUMMARY:
Extendar, the “heroic master of extension” was produced in Hong Kong, India, and Spain. This robotic, knight-like figure extends its limbs and head and comes with a folding shield that also extends out.
The Leo INDIA Extendar can be identified by its dark silver body, bright copper highlights, and dark red belt. The action features are unique for this extender, in that it has a spring mechanism in the head and torso, as opposed to extending manually like in other Extendars. The limbs do extend manually like others.
The figure is marked © Mattel, Inc. 1985 (uses the Hong Kong mold), and the shield is marked © Mattel, Inc. 1985 + SKU 2797 2228. The shield is mid-red.
The dark silver body is opaque, but as the figure ages, parts can become somewhat translucent and yellow.
