Dragon (v1), from "Saint Seiya - Vintage" collection, includes the following accessories:
Shiryu is the Bronze Saint of the Dragon and disciple of Dokho of Libra. Together with his companions, he protects the goddess Athena from all kinds of dangers throughout the series.
Over the course of the series, the design of the Bronze Knights' armor evolves, resulting in different figures of the same character with some changes to the armor.
In this case, we have the V1 version of the Dragon armor. As its number indicates, V1 is the first version of the armor and is the one Shiryu uses throughout the Sanctuary saga.
This figure was released in Japan in 1987 and came in two different types of boxes, known as "First Born" and "Window Box." The figure itself is exactly the same, the only difference being the box. The "Window Box" has a transparent part where you can see the figure, while the "First Born" is completely closed. You can also see differences in the design and illustration of these boxes.
The V1 version of the Bronze Knights also arrived in Europe a few years later, but it was only distributed with the box in French.
