Hahaha- they have the "Got you!" thumbs-up hand. Awesome.

I don't know if it's the sculpt or how they posed it, but I'm not feeling this one as much. Yeah, it's not as bulky as the DX version, but I think I like the more-shapely Retrofire Delta Squad Megazord (even though it lacks the articulation). Those feet are bloody enormous though, jezus.
Think I'll wait for more pictures before I decide if I want to pursue this one.

Aww, no Blast Buggy clip-on accessory!? I was looking forward to that with the Retrofire set too! >.<;

Wait, so the parts from this figure attach to the SRC Gokai-Oh (holy crap if they do!), or extra add-on parts are provided here?

Add-On

The little Gokai Pat Striker accessory becomes the add-ons for Gokai Oh.

Oh, so the Gokai Pat Striker

Oh, so the Gokai Pat Striker pieces don't connect to the actual DekaRanger Robo figure?

Very nice. I've always liked

Very nice. I've always liked the look of the SPD Megazord. For me, this looks great, especially with all the effect parts. Still, that is a little expensive for my budget.

SRC MagiKing???

I just heard there's a SRC MagiKing on the way. Can anyone confirm this?

...If there is, I'm totally gonna skip on the Retrofire Titan Megazord-!

All I could really find was this photo but then, isn't that enough?

What th-- that looks like a dolled-up Retrofire Titan Megazord! O_o? I mean, no hip joints, no two-axis waist, no two-axis shoulders, no elbows... what the hell is that for an SRC???

Thanks for the link! (I turned it into an actual link if you don't mind, so people don't have to copy/paste it like I did.)

Thanks!

I have no clue how to post actual links... not used to all the fancy commands y'all got here.

As for the toy... maybe it IS just a Retrofire? They may be planning the toy and not even be at prototype just yet.

Upon closer examination, IMO

Upon closer examination, IMO the forearms, skirt armor, and thighs look very similar, but the rest appears to be a new mold. It looks like Bandai instead decided to follow the stylized look of a Retrofire rather than how the MagiKing's stunt suit appears in the show- the same way they have with the DekaRanger Robo, Shinken-Oh and Gokai-Oh so far. Interesting...

If you go to my profile page, and click Contact, you can PM me and I'll show you how to insert a working link on CDX. =)

Shame about Magiking. I like

Shame about Magiking. I like the look of it, but it looks like it may be the weakest of the SRC Super Sentai mecha seen to date. But I do like Bandai's thinking to including GokaiOh's various power ups with the appropriate mecha instead of trying to cram it all with GokaiOh itself. I do like the look of Dekaranger robo. The feet don't seem all that huge, and may be relatively accurate to the stunt suit and such. Also, nice touch using translucent plastic for all the lights on the robo.
