Yeah, we really do need a new Dragonzord to go with this, with its own die-cast parts as well.

Shoulder Armor Problem?

I noticed in your video review and I see it in the last couple of photos, but is there something loose in the right shoulder armor?

Yeah. I just kept knocking it down without realizing it. It's actually not loose.

Glad I got mine...

Although i'm not a huge MMPR or Sentai fan (just a giant robot fan of any sort), I'm glad I was able to find this at my local TRU. That in and of it's self is a miracle since they they don't ever seem to get anything. (i.e. Transformers Masterpiece)

I felt the quality is exceptional on the Dino Megazord. My only complaint is the way the legs attach. I hate the knee-nipples! That seems to be the weak link imo.

About Pterodactyl Zord

The head is actually die-cast on that one. So all the figures have die-cast. Got my set a couple days ago on sale at 25% at my local TRU and I don't regret it. I've never had the original, but this one looks great. I'll eventually hunt down the original to combine it with Dragonzord and Titanus and benefit from the rolling wheels and all.

Holy crap, you're right! I

Holy crap, you're right! I just assumed the pterodactyl was sans diecast. Good catch!

Love this thing

Mine just arrived today and it is awesome. There is something really great about this big heavy brick of plastic and metal with like....two actual points of articulation. I also love the clicky shoulders and how they give you only about 4 positions for the arms.

It's just a special kind of awesome that many of my toys don't have.

Reprolabels!!!

Dudes, the reprolabels for this set is totally rad!!!!! It just adds that extra level of detail that brings this up to Chogokin level in my book. Or purtnear close! Once I lock down taking quality photos that are up to CDX quality, I'll post my picks of just how awesome and amazing a job Reprolabels did with these robots. OMG. They totally rescued the pterodactyl. RESCUED it with that chest plate that create the impression of further bringing out the molded in details on the figure. Really, really cool, so def check it out. I'm talking 3 sheets of reprogoodness. An OCDream come true.

Die-cast, schmie-cast

As the Transformers Titanium Series proved, metal parts do not magically improve a toy's quality. The Triceratops tail is metal? Whoop-de-smegging-doo, that doesn't actually improve anything. What would have improved things is retooling the tail so that the cannons were a separate piece like on the original toy so that they could be aimed. All a die-cast tail does is make it harder to kitbash that functionality in.

"The tank mode looks like it jumped straight out of the television and onto the park bench where I took these photos."
No, no it doesn't, because you transformed it wrong. The shoulder armor is supposed to be open like it is for the battle mode.
