Uni-Five lovin'!

Such a beautiful beautiful toy. I have mine proudly displayed in my limited shelf space also and despite my desire to rotate my display, I have no plans on moving this baby (along with the Yatta-wan) any time soon.

10+ years of reflection has definitely shown that Uni-Five's Shingokin line was one of the best of the modern gokin toy lines - arguably the "worst" of the lot was the Godphoenix and even that was friggin' amazing. I miss Uni-Five!

I so Hated this show...

Back in the 1980's they showed this program here in Southern California on the Spanish stations on Saturday mornings. As much as I loved anime at the time and was hungry to get my hands remotely on anything with big eyes I could not for the life me choke down this show! It was just way to 70's explosive frantic gaudy art design for my tastes! It was Super Friends x100, it was just too much. I think I might of recored an episode that I have somewhere in my VHS collection.

But....

I always admired the whimsical and iconic vehicles of the show. This set is fantastic and it seems loaded down with metal. This is a MUST pickup, thanks for the review and the good "bad memories" of my youth!
