The Story So Far...
The Guyver is a manga, and was also turned into
an anime, and later two live action movies. The
Guyver is the name for a sentient humanoid being who
is enhanced by a symbiotic (possibly techno-organic)
creature/device that is called a Guyver Unit while
dormant.
Guyver units were originally discovered by the
Kronos Corporation, that was involved in an
archeological dig that resulted in finding a
derelict alien spaceship. Kronos is governed by
"Zoalords", telepathic entities who have the ability
to quickly mutate into powerful beings that can fly,
fire energy weapons, and have a variety of other
abilities.
Kronos developed a way to bio-engineered humans with
the ability to Transmutate, which is to say, shape
shift into a large monster like creature. Regular
Zoanoids have only one form they can shift to, and
are engineered for a variety of purposes. Larger,
more muscular Zoanoids are designed for brutal melee
attacks, while bio-blaster type Zoanoids are
designed to fire chemical lasers or acid blasts from
a distance, and do not have as advanced muscle
tissue.
Not all human test subjects submit willingly to
these experiments, and one such test creature
"Malmot" escapes with the only three known Guyver
Units. He is ambushed by a Kronos taskforce, and in
the ensuing battle, he detonates an explosive,
scattering the Guyver Units across a forest.
Sho Fukamachi (sic) is a teenage male who happens
across one such unit, which violently bonds with him
upon contact. The resulting life form is superior in
strength and firepower to regular production
Zoanoids, as is proven in a smaller skirmish between
Sho, aka Guyver 1, and Gregole and Vamore class
Zoanoids. This "Bio-booster armor" which the Guyver
symbiosis is later known as, can retract into what
is believe to be an alternate dimension, allowing
the host creature to go about the world in normal
form. Calling the word Guyver, or being in a state
of mortal danger, can activate the armor, which
creates a destructive blast field around the host
while it forms around him.
The Guyvers have approximately the strength of 100
times the hosts normal power, when used with an
un-augmented human host, and has several weapons and
abilities. A large, chest mounted pair of organs,
called "mega-smashers" are essentially particle
cannons, and is the heaviest Guyver weapon known.
The pressure cannon, and pressure shield are made by
the Gravity Orb located in the waist of the Guyver,
and are used by compressing air into ultra dense
orbs (or shields). The Gravity orb also allows the
Guyver to hover, or even fly. There is also a
forehead mounted infrared laser beam weapon, which
can fire accurate narrow beams which are able to cut
through steel I-beams. Mounted on each forearm is a
Frequency Sword, a slightly polymorphic blade which
resonates at the molecular frequency of the material
it is nearest too, enabling it to cut through nearly
all substances. Currently only other frequency
blades (used by some Hyper-Zoanoid types) have
proved able to counter this weapon.
Guyvers also posses extra-sensory orbs, which can
alert the Guyver to danger, or other information,
through some walls, and from other angles, including
directly behind them.

I got the other version of this toy (Image Head Plus Guyver 1), the only thing they added was an exposed face of Sho and a hand part that holds the ripped-off part of the guyver's face. But, I think most of the Bio Fighter toys are sold out...
