That is freaking awesome. Not a big fan of the gap where the shoulder joint is but what can you do? Would've liked to see bigger hands too (you know, like the original costume in the show - he had fat "anime-hands").

Nice work. I know the odds are next to none, but I really hope that the Dino Megazord eventually gets chogokin'd. In a lot of ways he's like a Mazinger, Voltes or Grendizer for my generation. I very well might not be on this board today if it weren't for MMPR all those years ago.

Same here: I credit MMPR for my mecha revival. I loved gokins as a kid - they were that mystical robot toy my grandparents would bring me all the way from Hong Kong when they visited Canada, but as with all things, I grew out of them for a while... then in college when MMPR started, I got back into robot toys and started collecting them. But like you said, it's unlikely it will get a refresh. For the Japanese, it's just another mecha in a long line of Super Sentai. Same for DairuggerXV. Both these got new leases on life and went on to become legendary designs around the world, but back home, they are simply who they were in the first place. That's kind of sad.  |
