Dai and Trombe are n tiny at all. In fact, They're about my favorite SOCs outside of the Tobikage trio. Of course there's no right or wrong to opinions, but I personally love that set.

Individually, they're on the smaller side and part of it is in perception due to how their mass is distributed/their proportions, so I'll concede calling them tiny is a discourtesy and not entirely accurate. Jinba Ittai is pretty majestic, though, not gonna lie.

I dunno'. I feel like they're in proper scale as a lot of the Super Robot Wars mecha aren't the more giant scale of mechs like Voltron up. I'd rather have proper scaling to the rest of my Bandai Chogokin collection than them being made larger just for the sake of saying it's a big toy. But yea, even as just plain toys they're each between 6-7" or up IIRC so that's really not "small." by any means but, I dunno'; not going to drag it out particularly in another toy's thread but yea I'm glad you were willing to at least state that calling them that was a discourtesy and I agree; I have them displayed as riding with the raised stand and it's just so sick, especially with the large blades held.
On another note; could you imagine how much that set would cost if it were larger scale? I think it'd beat the DX prices.

Just got this in yesterday and can't disagree with the general sentiment. Engineering isn't up to snuff, but it looks fantastic. If they'd managed waist and ankle joints and made proper knee joints with thigh swivel, it would be near perfect. Missed opportunity but displays great which id good enough for me.

Well, I guess Daizyujin didn't flop in sales after all.

Real Congrats to bros who wanted this guy.
Bandai you better do him right! As in "put all you have in it" JUST like the typical J-drama when hero says "ganbatay" and raises his OR her fist in the air.... None of this "80 or 90 percent will do" crap.
In other words, make it "Voltron good!"

I've been collecting super sentai toys for a while now so soc seems awesome to super sentai Standards. Soc daizyujin is what I've always dreamt. I know that when compared with soc voltron seems weak but I can't avoid to love it. Dairenoh doesn't sound posible to me (is my all time favourite megazord). They are rereleasing it with metal parts as part of the super sentai artisan line (p-bandai japan exclusive), I can't imagine bandai releasing two dairenoh in so little time...

Well, I guess Daizyujin didn't flop in sales after all. This was likely happening either way as it will spike sales.

Great to see a Dragon Caesar in development. I don't think it will be GX-76 though. It clearly says "in development". Probably closer to GX-79 or 80. I think we have a few more likely candidates for 76 that we know are deeper or longer in development.

Wow. I'm totally lining up for a Dragonzord. Maybe a Titanus is in the cards too?
