Bari bari bari bari!!!
Our final gallery from Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger is here! The 5th and final Gokai Machine, DX Engine Machalcon! Machalcon is of course a tribute to Engine Sentai Go-Onger. But it's much more special than that. In Go-Onger there were 12 main engines that made up the 4 central mecha. Machalcon isn't just an homage to them, but is the 13th Engine! As the son of Speedor & BeaRV he's inherited their fiery spirits and sentai legacy! As such the figure features the Go-Onger names on it's front tires and Super Sentai is emblazed on the rear tires. And as a proper Engine, Machalcon incorporates the Engine Soul gimmick. However he's unique in that he can take TWO Souls. On either side of his vehicle mode there's a slot for an Engine Soul. The standard #13 soul to "awaken" Machalcon & trigger his growth in show, and another slot for the Kanzen Soul which allows for combination with Gokai Oh! But wait, the gimmicks don't stop there! Machalcon also features a cockpit which can accept Ranger Keys! Included with Machalcon is the Go-On Gold Ranger Key. However the sound effect it triggers in a DX Mobirate is actually that of the Go-On Wings Key, which is the key originally solicited to come with Machalcon. A very odd case indeed. But any Ranger Key at all can ride in Machalcon. Where this beast truly shines is in combinations. Now much like Gao Lion before him, Machalcon features a very centaur like combo with Gokai Oh. "When pirate and Engine Souls become one,with an Engine's roar the hearty king is born, Go-On Gokai Oh!" This combo sees the upper torso and arms of Gokai Oh connected just behind the cockpit of Machalcon. Practically as a toy it may not look perfect because in show this thing was crazy mobile. But it's very imposing. To help replicate this forms ability to fly in show, all the tires are capable of folding down, though obviously it still sits on the ground as a toy. And the biggest baddest combo of all. Kanzen Gokai Oh! This form requires all of Machalcon, but only the most basic piece of Gokai Oh (the hollow & helmetless torso) and Gojyujin (the arms) but the end result is magnificent. A truly beastly combination that looks just as impressive as it does in show. What really sets it off is the massive emblazoned chest crest and the magnificent sword helmet. As you can see it's big, chunky, and tall, and worth every bit of the price. Machalcon can be readily found in the 4000-6000 yen range and is very much worth it on it's own. The combination is icing on the cake.

Got the full figure's poseability is painful.

Well, that's... interesting looking. The combination looks pretty cool. Reminds me of a Transformer.

That is an amazing final mecha, Its downright beautiful. Not a big fan of the sword head crest, I highly doubt its going to be as awesome when it gets turned into a zord, assuming it does get turned into a zord, no telling with BOA.

This is one of the more "cohesive" final combinations as of late.

Yo, dawg.
I heard you like robot on your robot with your robot. Sets like this make me appreciate the simplicity of the Sentai mecha of old where at best you had one main robot composed of the 5 sentai members and the 6th mecha that can combine with it.
