The final gallery in Tokunation's look back at the Samurai toy line is none other than the first foldingzord, the mighty Bull Zord! The Bull Megazord is a scaled down, electronics free adaptation of Shinkenger's Mougyudaioh but is still fairly screen accurate. The figure can transform from ox and cart to megazord mode or it can combine with the other 10 foldingzords (not counting the Light Zord or Shark Zord) to become the gargantuan Samurai Gigazord.
Check out the quick 8 image gallery of the Bull Megazord and follow the links to check out all of the components of the Samurai Gigazord: Samurai Megazord Swordfish, Beetle & Tiger Zords ClawZord & OctoZord Ultimate Samurai Combination: Samurai Gigazord, We Are United!

I'll give BOA credit where it's due. They did a pretty good job on the Bullzord.

I think this looks like a great translation of BoJ's product. I just wish they'd advertised it with the same... zeal.

Now this I want. For the discs and the Zord. But it also hightlights a real problem I wish they'd have thought about.
Ape. Just hanging off the back in limb mode, like we're supossed to pretend his ankle doesn't have a damn arm hanging off the back. How hard would it have been to include a non-transformable Ape Origami that connects onto the ankle? Not very. |

I dont have the Bull but for the DaikaiShinken-Oh form I just fold the bottom half of the ape up onto the top half. its not accurate but its helluva lot better then an arm having off his hip
id love to actually find this bastard though, I could find him everywhere until I found Ika, since then I havnt seen him once |

How hard would it have been to include a non-transformable Ape Origami that connects onto the ankle? Not very. It should have just been able to fold up in the first place. Besides the legs not being able to collapse to form an actual cart, this one's pretty good IMO. Would've loved a big guy like this as a kid.

I got the Japanese release (bigger, electronics, stiffer in appearance). Man. I got it at a bargainprice but feel really let down. Transformation is simple as hell for the size. If it werent so satsfying to combine into Samurai Haoh I'd boycott it completely.

Looking at both these pics, plus the set I have right now, it was well worth every last penny of the $130 I plopped down to get the full set.
Also, and I guess I'm speaking foe everyone else here, if anyone can find a way to modify the Ape Zord to fold properly, please let me/us know.

I held off on him until I could find an octozord, now that I have an octozord all the bull zords over here have vanished. Tis crazy. |
