Hey guys, I'm trying to order the Lupinkaiser minipla on Amiami.

I noticed that there's a 5 set and a 12 pack set.

I understand that Lupinkaiser has zords 5 packs in order to build the zord. Assuming that the 12 pack set has doubles of that 5 packs required. What would the remaining 2 pack contain? Or does the 12 pack set contain something completely different. Please educate me on this, thanks!

I think the 12 pack includes 2 extra arms.

It is 2 extra of one the 5 box of the set. There is never something new or from an ancient set.
It could be an extra good striker (box 4 and 5) or any of the lupin vehicules (could even be the same vehicule twice).

The sentence on amiami tells that they don't know the exact content, but I have read somewhere that it is usually the same for everyone. I have seen a picture on twitter where there was 3 good striker on the 12 pack.

So I take it Series 3 is just auxillaries. And series 4 will probably be Lupin X / Patoren X

So I want to get into MiniPla...

Starting with Lupin/Patoranger. I found both core mechs on AmiAmi for about 29 bucks pre-shipping.

Should I try to get UchuRanger and Zyuohger as well for Minipla?

I only have Zyuoh King and Dodekaioh for Zyuohger and Kyurenoh set 1 for Kyuranger, but I would definitely recommend those series’ lines based on those sets alone. Though I’m wondering, are the ToQger and Ninninger sets as good as the Zyuohger and Kyuranger kits? I’m thinking about getting some of those.

I'm wondering what series 04 will contain since it's available in a 5-box set. I already have series 01 and 02 but I don't know if I should continue getting the rest since I haven't even started watching the show yet. Haha.

I've built most of the Kyuranger ones and the first two mechs of Zyuohger and they were all pretty nice. Pretty standard in terms of Minipla so if you end up enjoying the Lupin/Patoranger ones then you'll probably enjoy the others too. I find that you can usually get pretty good deals on older Minipla sets on Mandarake.
