Yeah, it's Kin Sankaku, also known as "Mandrake the 4th" from the the 80's series (english dub).

I didn't know that an important schoolfriend of Tezuka stood model here, very interesting!
His dubbing as Mandrake in the 80's series was priceless.

Haha, Gotta Love Astro Boy's entry is superb! Great work there! :lol: EDIT: funny, the gif doesn't work for myself either in another browser. :eek: So, here is a version that works! :D Thanks for letting me know! :) Perfect, it's working!

Oh, ok! Thanks, I just have been wondering...
