I think the reason the Norikae figures have that weird weapon business is because they were made before the swapping gimmick in show was figured out. Like, maybe those figures represent an abandoned gimmick that had the color stay the same, but the numbers changed, and they'd get the weapon of the ranger usually associated with that number...

Just a thought.

I like the final version better. It's handled brilliantly.

Plus, this throws Power Ranger's color-coded clothing reason out the window.

Oh definitely.

Do the weapons the figures come with combine to make the bazooka thing?

I don't think so, but it could be possible. Pretty much the only moving part needed for that is the axe, everything else just needs holes and pegs.

ShukuenShinobi's calender says the 19th for Diesel Ressha and Box Set.

How quickly does BBTS get their Sentai stuff in stock?

Ah ok. The only reason I ask is since all three figures come with all five weapons you could of made three of the bazzoka thing.

Those figures never seemed quite right to me, guess you guys have identified the problem.

Just out of interest, has anybody seen any pictures of fan moded Toq-oh's with multiple Car/Tank Resshas? I just bought extras of each and Ive no idea how to potentially integrate them, or if i should keep them mint

No. The weapons the figures come with do not combine into the Renketsu Bazooka. They don't do anything at all. They're poorly painted black PVC things and that's about it. Their inclusion with each figure makes no sense at all.

Car Carrier has been going in and out of stock all day. Tokkyu Buckle (with the under-used shield ressha) is in stock too:

Ressha Sentai Toqger - Tokkyu Jousha Bus Tokkyu Buckle (1820 JPY)

Ressha Sentai ToQger Ressha Gattai Series 7 Carrier Ressher (1090 JPY)

I haven't.

I want to now.

Another good question.

Well they did JUST get thier carcarrier and tank ressha in stock. IDK Im gona stic with them and hope for the best.

Id use two for arms and two for legs or extend each set for longer resshas in train mode. Im kinda think about doing that myself.

I cannot believe I did it. I must be mad.

I ordered a ToQ-Oh. Darn you, trains!

One of us! One of us! :lol

(evil chant) Good Goooood! Soon all the rooms in every house will be filled with multicolored trains! Its freking brilliant!

This is my FIRST DX mecha ever, so your not alone.

Thomas ain't got nothing on you guys!

Feaking laxzers and Mini nukes fireing of 7 trains.... Didnt think so.

Thing is, the trains will find you, run you down, and you wake up and found out you've ordered a ToQOh.

And then the rest start coming and making you order them.

Onore trains! I just got billed for the Kyoryuger Ressha, so I guess those will be released soon. I'm surprised I didn't get tapped for the Go-Buster one as well.

From where? Everything I've seen says that train comes out the 26th (2 weeks)

How weird. I got an email this morning from HLJ saying they were going to process my payment.

Hopefully this means DieselOh will be released soon.

I DEMAND FREIGHT TRAINS

Maybe it's for Diesel? (Diesel is the 19th)

Diesel is sunday, but I'm hoping this time around HLJ is on the ball and processes orders ahead of release instead of 2-3 days after :(

i am screaming at trains as well!

UH i MEAN, YES GIVME MORE TRAINS. THE WAIT FOR DIESEL OH HAS BEEN UNBEARABLE SINCE TOKKYU-OH'S ARRIVAL.

Question for everyone who got Tank and Car Carrier off BBTS:

What was the delay from them being released in Japan, to them being shipped to you?

I want to know when I can expect DieselOh if it releases on the 19th.

I finally got around to order Tank Ressha and Car Carrier Ressha. Got Tank at CSToys and Car Carrier at Hobby Search...now the race is on. Which Train gets here first :lol

probably this one :D

That's just the Gashapon isn't it?

nah, it's from the next SG Ressha set. I was just being silly saying this might come out before he gets the ones he ordered :)

getting very excited, the Diesel Ressha reviews should be coming in the next 2 days...

very excited to get a new combination in hand!!!

Box art for the Diesel-Oh Set:

…But I told myself not to buy anymore… :cry

Diesel Oh-hell yeah.

So much YES.

Review proper should be up later today

I welcome you down the Rabbit Hole :lol

Diesel-Oh doesn't even have a proper right hand and Cho ToQ-Oh looks blah. Box cars hanging off the shoulders? Boxy legs attached to the sleeker existing legs? Nothing about the combo meshes at all.
Also, They need to do something to make ToQ-Oh thicker, not wider. Somebody get that gattai a Sandwich Ressha


I was a lot more forgiving towards ToQger's lame train bots until I recently got my Brave series toy reference books. Now Takara knew how to make combining train robots and symmetrical docking with those toys. Gimme Ultra Raker from ExKaiser any day.

Does this mean Shukuen's 19th deal was when the trains get released at BBTS?
