www.collectiondx.com/node/873Okay, so, I'm checking out my local Toys R Us today, seeing if they've bothered to stock any Cybertron Wing Saber (which I'm about to just give up on), and I decided to check and see if there were any cool sentai robots among the heaps of sentai 4-wheel-ATVs, and alongside the Magiking combiners, I see the Travelion/Sun Streak Zord.  A train giant robot combiner?! OMGYAYS! Now, like most of these, it's priced at 39.95, which is actually a little more than the Wing Saber I was planning to get, if I can ever find one. But I'm getting more into giant combining robots and less into combining Transformers, lately. I guess I'm wondering if there's anything I need to know before I plunk down my money for Travelion. It looks like a really cool toy, and will (someday) look nifty next to such big boys as DX GaoGaiGar and Cybertron Optimus Prime in full battle mode with his lion-claw arm (Leobreaker).

He's got really stumpy legs. And he's only about 8" tall in combined mode. Plus he's a little "kiddie-ish" in his train design....Apart from that , he's another solid sentai toy...

I agree. I don't have him personally but he's quite cool. I'm waiting for UK version to get over here before I buy them though.

When I first saw the Japanese version, I could not believe how short it was! I had to resist getting it because of that. I like Sentai toys and I like trains but I did not like the shortness.

the toy robot is the same HEIGHT as the other 2 Mystic Force Megazords, but VERY wide, making him VERY Stubby, and ...has LOTS of empty space and low poseability.

The robot is short. Reminds me of Fatimus prime in fatty mode.

Lots of stores in HK placed Travellion (and Wolkaiser) on the sale bin early this year... you can get them for as much as $15... I did not bother getting an extra travellion because it has no playability whatsoever... however, I got 2 extra Wolkaisers...  There's also an exclusive TRU travellion being sold at $20... they just bundled travellion and Magishine's henshin device/morpher... |

sorry to hear that... i didnt know... ... why not try toy-wave.com or angolz.com? and yet, NO Wolkaizer for us in the USA at ALL. argh. i made a mistake on the price of TRU Travellion... it's $40 not $20.. .but it is still a good deal considering you get a henshin device/morpher with travellion... ... and a nice pic of Hikaru at the front of the box  ;D |

^ wtf?
I wish I still lived in HK. I went back two years ago for only two weeks. Didnt get much in the toy department. Wish I picked up some stuff like souchaku henshin kamen riders that I just got back into. What's 'big' over there right now?
