It's for that reason that I can see them doing it after all the Gaoranger stuff. It'll act as a very quick buffer in between the series that have so many auxiliary mecha. Like Shinkenger or Kyoryuger.

Finished the giraffe and deer from GaoIcarus.

Was really cheap of Bandai to not paint the symbols on both legs/sides of the shoulders. Come on. I don't even mind stickers, it's the inconsistency that bothers me.

I will say the turtle cove display stand and effect part for GaoHunter are nice additions.

Nice!

I?m just curious but did you use the stickers for GaoIcarus?

yeah i would have preferred both the arm symbols be stickers then the colored wrap around sticker for the bellies be replaced with paint. struggled getting that one to sit right on both

I use stickers for my SMPs. I'm no good at painting ABS since it's so slick. I will say the stickers are pretty good, with the only really bad ones being the stickers on the falcon's legs because they're on bulbous surfaces.

Also as cheap as the symbol stickers on the giraffe and deer are, those incredible eye pieces for Icarus' wings make up for it.

yeah i was expecting the eye piece to be "choose what sticker your going to use" was pleasantly surprised they are fully painted swappable parts

one minor thing i noticed was when using the bison as legs it tends to have issues balancing but you can use the tail of the falcon to act as a tripod and there is the stand it comes with but for the most part the stand is not needed

i was actually expecting it to be more back heavy then it is

Yeah the balance is quite nice. With the rhino legs it's completely stable despite the wings.

Speaking of I do find the wings very tight, though they may loosen up. The joints on the falcon overall are quite stiff, which may be due to its size, but it can make folding the legs in a bit tough. Being ABS though I imagine it will loosen up with use like my other SMPs.

Can't wait for GaoGod. I'm also hoping I can nab the big lion and elephant off Mandarake but so far only one has shown up.

still not sure if i am going to get gaogod. probably will to just complete the set

Someone on Twitter trying to combine Gao Icarus and Gao King to make a new formation.

I think this formation should be become a true Gaorangers' strongest robo formation.

Maybe this formation name is Ultimate Gao King.

looking at mine looks like they had to modify the rhino and the bison to work as as it is there is now way for the right bison leg to have the front gold part fold down. and the grey part of the rhino can nto fit in the grey part of the bison leg with out cutting

cool custom though

i would just take the rhino out of this formation entirely that way gao muscle striker could still be formed and then you can have all the main mechs at the same time

gao muscle striker

gao hunter

and then this "super" gao king with the falcon, deer, giraffe, and elephant
