It all depends on sales, if this figure is a knock-out then maybe a Dragon Caesar but the cost of tooling would need to be justified.

Bandai will eventually work their way through most of the subjects that they have or hold license to I am sure. Look at the classic DX's and Godaiken for a pretty good estimate of where things might go from here. The one thing we want to be careful of is Bandai swinging too far in viewing the west as more of a primary market, and skipping obvious subjects because they never aired or were relatively unknown in North America. We need to politiely make sure they understand that we appreciated (almost!) all of the classic robots. And their adult Collector market is not as driven by pure cartoon nostalgia. Hopefully they use the big nostalgia magnets like Voltron to draw new interest into all of the product offerings (which seems to be happening. I know a ton of first time SOC buyers with Voltron that are now hunting down others.) We don't want them to skip Dynaman Robo because it never aired here, etc.

Dragonzord next please. Cannot have one without the other. Bioman, changeman, and flashman would be nice too. I do not want to forget dairugger and albegas because those are a must. Bioman would be good! Grew up something that show! Also, I don't have any connection to Dancouga growing up, but damn that mech looks awesome! Wouldn't mind getting one if they rerelease. Isn't there a voting poll somewhere that Dancouga was leading? Anyway, thanks for that Megazord Vid! Bring on SOC Megazord!

The GX-50 Combattler V should be higher on that list as that sucker is now $500+ at the moment and the others you can still find for decent prices.

None of that is new info - it's pretty much a copy/paste of the tamashii web page.

The video was cool.
Thanks tyrannozard27.
Is that a 3 pack at 16:00 or what? Do I need to buy them all in a pack to get the stupid cardboard hanger?

Thanks. Will skip the DC releases for now because SoC Megazord is the high priority for me.

They take the thing apart and they STILL won't show the range of the knees. Now i'm getting annoyed and worried.

i suspect the GX-72 Megazord/ Daizyujin in term of quality and playability is not as good as GX71 voltron.

Yeah. As much as I want a posable Sentai mech,I am unsure with the information that we have that it will surpass the SoC Voltron.
And I grew up with Power Rangers.

I'll admit to skipping through that video; did they do anything other than take off the chest plate and transform the head? If not, I wouldn't worry too much quite yet. Dengeki's early hands-on with a pre-production sample of GX-71, went very much the same way; quick and with the kids-gloves on.

Aside from a few things we already know about (Tyrannosaurus mouth cannons, posable mammoth trunk, etc) we saw the storage feature for the Daizyujin's back cannons in t-rex's chest armor and how the t-rex tail segments articulate (f**k yeah!). Oh yeah, they also show that Daizyujin's head is rotable .

Thanks for the vid!!! Can't wait man!
