AM-01 looks to be some kind of hermit crab, AM-02 is a bird/hawk thing and AM-03 is a crocodile. My only complaint about the set is that I have no idea what AM-01's weapon mode is supposed to be. Is it a cannon? A crossbow? The monster from Final Fantasy? Who knows.

Like AMW-01; as AM-01 is Voyager Optimus Prime.
And lastly, I have also no idea what is the weapon of AMW-01; looks weird..

It's in silver, above the name. It stands for "Arms Micron Weapon". And Gabu is indeed a horseshoe crab. Nobody could figure that one out for a long time. And Baru is a falcon to be exact, at least according to his packaging

I'm having mixed feelings about all these Arms Micron Weapons.

TakaraTomy's site officially calls it a "Double Blade"

Thanks so much for all the info. It's really helpful considering I can't read Japanese. So let me get some of the facts straight so I may update the video with this info:
Horseshoe Crab = Gab (Gabu)
Falcon = Bal (Baru)
Crocodile = Dai
Gab (Gabu) => Double Blade
Bal (Baru) => Wide Blade
Dai => Rocket Launcher
Sword name = Dark Calibur
