It's my favorite toy now...

I just bought a DX MagiKing yesterday...it was a re-issue according to the toy supplier (and had a lower price since it was just a re-issue) and I like this toy more than the DX Dekaranger Robo right now.

O.o? Reissue? There was

O.o?

Reissue? There was no reissue. Now, there was the Complete Edition DX MagiKing, which was a suped-up repaint, but it sold for, like, double the cost of the regular, and came in a fold-open book-like silver window box, and added the unique MagiBall that MagiFairy changed into for their combo attack.
God- I wish I could have gotten that one-!

I like them for different reasons, but I agree that the MagiKing is, by far, the better compared to the DekaRanger Robo.

In america and Japan there

In america and Japan there may not have been a reissue, but in England and Korea (and other places) they are behind in sentai series. Korea is known to run brave series toys long after the series has ended, so who knows if this user isnt in HK, Korea or a place like that where such practices are common?

Delayed official materials, or good knock-offs?

I often feel that anything that was not produced by authorized manufacturers- regardless of how close it may seem- is a knock-off, and isn't considered "official-release" materials. So, anything that comes out of Korea, Taiwan, etc. that doesn't appear the same year and only through official channels I don't count.
For example: there was an all-silver/light gray DX Gao Hunter released the year after "GaoRanger" ended, but it wasn't sold in Japanese markets even though it was one of their products. So, is it officially part of the line, or is it a well made knock-off?

Am I too far off the mark on this subject?

MagiKing Perfect Edition

I guess this is just me but, if only the Perfect Edition contained some die-cast metal in it, then it might have justified the higher price of the toy even more, besides the fact that it's a great repaint of a toy.

Off-topic wise,I MIGHT be getting the DX DaiShogun this December since it's a better version of Engine-Oh.

It's called the "Engine

It's called the "Engine DaiShogun". And keep in mind that even though the official spelling is "Engine", the actual word is "Enjin" which means "Flame-god". So while Engine-Oh is "Flame-god-King", Engine DaiShogun is "Flame-god Great-Emperor".

Re: god i cant wait till i get

Umm... There was no Deluxe-release for the Centaurus Wolf Megazord. You have to get the original DX Majin Gattai WolKaiser from "Mahou Sentai MagiRanger" if you want a transformable one.

And while you're at it, get instead the DX MagiKing; the paint apps are so much better. (Though if you have big money, go hunting for the Special-edition version; which literally takes the paints apps to a whole new level.)

Broke-off Magi Fairy's waist

It seems that the waist of Magi Fairy is quite weak...I have a DX MagiKing at home for 2 years and while I was playing with Magi Fairy a few months ago, the waist connector (the one that contains the hip and leg part) suddenly broke off...possibly from the strain of transforming it from figure to dragon head and back.

Looks like I'm the only one who encountered this problem, anyone else had a similar problem or otherwise?

Still expensive...

That better be durable, given the price of that thing. Too bad it's not die-cast.

i also had the normal one

and it's around 3rd hand or so... and the magi-fairy's still ok but did you finesse your way through transformation or through brute force?

Not thru force...

I always take good care of my collections and it's surprising that my Magi Fairy broke that way. I think the joints were already too weak through frequent transformations.
