This is kind of a rhetorical question, because I know there's no way for us to know for sure, but you think there's a chance we'll get some Dairanger Super Minipla within the next two years or so? My holy trinity of Super Minipla is Zyuranger, Liveman, and Dairanger, and since 2/3 of those already exist I'm hoping I'll get the third somehow.

IIRC, Washi Voyager plugs in just fine if you swap Shishi Voyager's feet with one another.

Ooh, cool. Didn't even think about trying that but then again, I wasn't really planning on displaying it on the back anyway. Good to know though.

Potentially, at one point it was suggested up to maybe Magi or Hurricanger. Part of the idea of super minipla was to do some random areas(Golion and anything else that'll sell and do well), some old areas that didn't get anything good, and then other series that didn't have that great of ones. So they will likely skip Geki, Bouken, and so on up. GoGoV and Megaranger as well as TimeRanger are likely though. But Magi didn't get that great of a release iirc, and there were some other spotty ones between it. Aba might get a redo, but that's fully unknown. The super minipla concept came out of the want to do Zyu stuff and classic with at least Deka/Geki level engineering. Which tbh, a strong reason it was done was entirely for the Gouryujin, but it's been proving pretty popular and is likely to stick around to cover what it can that needs it and some extra fun stuff like Voltron. Though how long it stays is really dependent on how profitable it is or not. The loss on revenues shouldn't impact BoJ too much, but the areas it does impact aren't a charity either. Speaking of Voltron, has anyone checked what the arm peg size is on those? Need to know if they match the Geki/Deka/Bouken/Gokai standard or not. Also have yet to check if they adjusted the standard for Lupin/Patren. I know there was some brief discussion about how older minipla have some wear and tear aspects that created loose limbs that was startng to create some thinking about being addressed through a slight mushroom peg style(small ridge, not a massive one), but don't know if they went for that or not. It came up after some kits had some issues where limbs would outright fall off in previous years. Particularly dekawing robo's legs. I know on Gouryujin they reversed the pegs for other reasons that we'll see why on later. Mostly want to know on Good Striker/Jackpot Striker because that'll determine if I get an extra or not of it, or if I look into an extra Emperor X to do more varied limbs of other sentai on it. Like Gokai arms etc. Thank you. Completely forgot about that. Last edited by Librarian; 09-13-2018 at 03:25 AM.. |

Ah, neat. That's another Voyager down, though I'll have to buy Cerberus if I want to use up the others.

If you do 4 and 4 (Lion and Kerberios) then you'll need a double for Ryuteioh's other arm. And if you do washi pink backpack wings, then you'll need 2 extra limbs/arms. So far that's the only thing that's annoying in the Kyu kits/figures. I mean I like that they made it so that it's swappable and all that, but we really do need one later special add-on limb to avoid doubles. Cause you have 4 limbs per 2 core bodies. Then 1 additional arm. So that still leaves something without an arm or a leg. So even a special additional recolor of the orion battler arm would be enough. Or some kind of ship armada in that style with a couple different ones. Which could also help fill out Orion's space platform too. So maybe at least 2 retools of that style. Though 4 would be good too, so that super kyurenoh can have a dual weapon. Would potentially be a good spot for a Rider crossover element too. Hibiki twin voyager clubs, or Fourze Space shuttle sword. Or whatever else they can make to fit the simplified Orion Voyager style of arm, maybe legs(denliner could work again too for that). That's all it really needs. Some kind of simple fluff filler style ones that are easy retools of Orion Voyager or the ookami voyager or Chameleon voyager or swordfish voyager.

Anyone get Minipla Ninja/Shogun Mega(falcon)zords yet? If so, are they compatible with Titanus?

my kits finally arrived!
Put together Kerberios already and Ryuteioh, as well as Super shishi. Need to do the other 9 voyagers still though. (Well, 10. Got two of shishi to do the upgrades from Super shishi and Kerberios to it.) Am slightly kicking myself though, Super Shishi is really awesome with how it provides an extra arm, and makes some sweet blaster arms. Might need to order an extra of it. Also kicking myself for not ordering two kerberios. *Edit* Still putting them together(19 of 28 boxes done so far.), but for those that had "extra limb" issues. Bird/Washi Pink on the back of Kyurenoh, and do Ryuteioh with Kerberios, and put the extra 2 kyutamas in ryuteioh on the back with arms folded down. And now you have all 9 limbs on a mecha combination with no extras and no one missing an arm and no repeats. Works as Kyurenoh as the front of Ryuteioh combined too, but since Kerberios you have to disconnect two kyutama for the arms, it gives better display storage for that. Otherwise, you can use Super Shishi as an arm to bolster it by one if needed if you don't want repeats. Also should work as an arm on orion battler too. Kind of actively want a second super shishi now to paint up in Geki Rinshi Rio colors. *Edit2* 4 more to go! And also, Kerberios while freaking cool, after having really seen his pronunciation, now all I keep hearing is Care Bearious and the kyutama on the torso doesn't help. xD Times like this makes me wish there was a Power Rangers Sentai Abridged.
