Its too bad the Black T-Rex Zord's tail is so short that it cant be used to support the super mode. I had to use the Red Rex' tail instead. What do you use to keep that super mode up?

I swap around the short stubby golden balck rex tail for Green's gray tail. I think it work best because the colors match and that thail almost become invisible. You should do the same.

Meanwhile, Green rex with a short golden tail work very well.

Oh, nice!

You do have the car that go with it, right?

I have it and it was a fantastic build. My only complaint it the car is way too big compared to the minifigs. Still, it does make a well detailed Ecto-1

I wish I have the money and the room for the firehouse base...

by **wilcosu35** » Mon Dec 12, 2016 10:52 pm

Yes, i already had the Ecto 1

Now it's getting a garage.

Nice catch! Was it a kijiji find?
Got them bot in a trade a few months ago. Too bad no zords (appart the turtle) can transform into the origami for the american version. Still, both are pretty sweet bots and the combined mode is pretty rad.

Yeah, it was Kijiji, but it wasnt cheap. 60$ for the two of them. The best price I could find, fo sure, but still not that cheap. The Claw Zord is awesome, and is perfect for the zord builder system.

I dont like that Samurai megazord though. I like the combined mode, its really great, so I cant regret getting the main megazord, but it doesnt change the fact that it sucks. When I first saw it, I was so sure that they could fold up. because the animals themselves dont look good, but I thought "yeah but its because they have to fold up" so it was ok. And then I realize while having him that only the turtle works?! That sucks a lot. But at least that lobster is really awesome. I really wish Sentai/PR made some toys again of animals that werent as stylised. i really liked Dino Charge. Sure, the dinos were mecha but they looked like Dinos. I would like that with Animals again (the Dragon and dog in ninja steel are fine, for example).

Yeah, the fact that we get a transformed figures "dipped in glue" suck for that origami megazord. Maybe you'll hunt the Japanese original?

BTW, my pair wasnt cheap either. I had to trade some video games for them.

Yeah. I am assuming there are less Power Rangers Megazord toys on the local secondary market than Transformers, making them harder to obtain for cheap. I thought e-bay was bad for TFs, its a joke compared to PR toys, holy hell. And no, I wont track the Japanese version down, I dont want to spend too much on these toys and I like how they can all interact with eachother.

70$, so 20$ off. And it's pretty awesome though I do preffer that incredible Claw Zord. I can see why it's expensive, but I wouldnt mind a plastic version instead with stickers if it meant paying less.

Oh,m I would mind. Because an all plastic Tigerzord would be just... eh... It's the metal and high details that MAKE the figure.

Also, 20$ off? Not too shabby, my friend. Not too shabby.

Was waiting for a sale but when I saw that one TRU took them off the shelves I didn't hesitate and ran to another TRU to pick it up before it was gone for good.

On my end, a small impulse buy I made at Canadian Tire of all places. At 20$CAN+tx, who can resist that nice Lego garbage truck?

News Credits: 100 · by **-Kanrabat-** » Mon Dec 26, 2016 4:40 pm

Along my INCREDIBLE Transformers haul, here's what I got today on Boxing Day:

Lego Santa's Workshop at only 45$CAN plus taxes. That's 50% off! And that's one incredible price, especially for a nearly 900pcs set. Bought at the Lego Store.

I'll open it and build it in around... 11 months. :lol:

Unexpectedly, i got something for christmas.

I'm not sure if I was even aware of this thread. Got another SD Gundam kit for the X of Mas. I don't know much about Gundam in general, but I'm loving these kits. I'm pretty much a sucker for anything SD. Anyway here is Try Burning Gundam next to what I think is Unicorn Gundam I put together a few months back. Anyway, they look cool, are fun to build and play with.

Christmas haul time! First let's start out with the 2 bigger guys ToQ-Oh and Gigant Kyoryuzin(or whatever the PR name for him is)!

I'm kind of surprised I was able to get the Green Raptor Zord and Black Para Zord. Then you have the little guys

Super Sentai Artisan Rodeomaru! And Akaninger Chouzetsu! I gotta say, the poses you can get out of both of them are pretty great.

Hey Railbomb. His name is TitanoZord and I am very happy that you got him. He never ever showed up in canada but I still hold out hope he will. I am super surprised you got the green raptor and black parasaur, I knew I wouldnt find those so I settled for the repaints.
