Could be why only Ryo was released en masse and the rest are Web Exclusives?

The figures underneath the armor are nearly completely articulate. Only missing articulation is shoulder outwards articulation (they can only go forward and back) and I guess wrist articulation. Not quite as good as Gridman but their arms arent needed in the combined mode since the arms come from the combining vehicle.

Mine are grey weapons. Not sure if there were any blue ones.

Yeah that's why I think everyone else was a TamashiiWeb exclusive. Same thing happened to Tekkaman after Blade was released too. Pretty sad.

Hmm the Servo I saw must be a repaint in similar colors to the original then because I think it has blue weapons.

In combined mode with the dragon and Optimus Prime guy, is all of Servo's articulation retained? Any joints weighed down by the weight?

Combined Gridman retains all articulation. But as I said, King Gridman is top heavy so there is a extra piece that holds his hip from giving in. So his only real articulation is in the arms (might be able to balance him in some poses). Thunder Gridman is not as top heavy so is much easier to pose. Tbh they have all the articulation one would need at this size. Just some balancing issues. Really wish they used ratchet joints in the legs.

No clue about the Servo. There were way too many releases of that mold. I know there was a chromed up Servo in same colours as the normal Servos but no clue if that has grey weapons or blue.

I've seen a listing on eBay for a lot of the 5" or so figures, the ones which came carded. Anyone have any of those? Are they worth picking up?

The lot had most of the heroic robots, plus Kilokhan and a Mega Virus.

If you like the looks go for it. But the only ones really necessary are the DX. The Standard sized Servos looks pretty neat though since it has all modes intact. Just some parts dont transform like the DX.

Be forewarned man, a lot of those have V-crotches! Ruins the look imo.

As amazing as the DX toys were for the time, their major flaw is the articulation *and the looseness of some of the joints) and the design has balancing issues. Fun toys still.

Dude for toku toys those were ahead of their time!

Yeh. Compared to the Daizyujin, its really complex. I mean I love the whole Daizyujin set but Gridman is very different. More complex. I wonder why it didnt catch on?

Good question man, though I will say this, I thought the toys were a LOT better than the localization as Syber Squad. I've been meaning to check out a subbed version of Gridman because I did not like the Syber Samurai dub at all!

Loved the designs and the toys always looked good.
