Again, as written on the box art – TEDEROS In the future of the 20th century, mankind has been civilized and living a rich life. But since the fall of gigantic meteorites, a cataclysm has been started that has included the appearance of monsters and invasions by aliens from other planets. Mankind is now facing things never experienced before. The forces of the Earth’s united nations have been attempting to organize a new squadron, beyond the Army, Navy and Air Force, to protect against these alien attacks from other planets and to prepare for the development of space. This new squadron, made up of specialized robots, is named Terrestrial Defence Robot Squadron, “TEDEROS”.
Well, it is already 21st century now but can you just relax and ignore what’s going on around us now??
This one is TEDEROS-04 Underwater Robot by Marusan. 6 inches long and it is marked as 1/150 scale and the pilot Lisa Veronica figure is inside the clear dome. Also like the TEDEROS 02, with or without intention of the creator it resembles the Thunderbird 4.

Mutant Vinyl Hardcore website basic description of a DX Sludge Demon:
"Once, long ago, a vengeful human tried to burn the Demon to char… this terrifying “resurrected” form was the unexpected outcome of that futile attempt. The DX is the Sludge Demon’s second-most commonly encountered shape; a gnarled, desiccated upright body with a head that transforms according to which unique powers and abilities he summons forth…"
"Death Head DX"
"When the Sludge Demon assumes the horned death head, any living thing he touches- from flowers to flesh- will rot and die immediately."

This one is TEDEROS-05 First Aid Robot by Marusan. 6 inches tall and it is marked as 1/150 scale and the pilot Erika Willinger figure is inside the clear dome. Nice reminder of Gang of Five style skirted robot design was used for this one and it suits well.
These are some of Takatoku's 1980s cheap vinyl Macross toys. They're round and plump, like Sanrio characters. So instead of "Bye Bye Mars" - from the battle on Mars episode - this is "Hello Mars!"
The Regult Tactical Pods seem to be rather rare. Sets of these Macross vinyls were actually sold in Spencers Gifts stores here in the US during the middle of the 80s, in their orginal Takatoku packaging - a plastic cube with spacers decorated with great Macross graphics. Remember seeing them?
