They have robot modes! Individual robot modes!

These look so awful. What is the blue guy even supposed to be?

In the combined form, I think the blue one is supposed to be an astronaut. Fits the UFO theme.

Pretty much. I'm down for the line. I love japanese history and such a fun twist on the shinobi basis makes for some dorky and lovable toys!

I'm just wondering, in these combinations the right arm is the Shinobimaru, so what happened to the Dump Truck arm? Does it store somewhere in the back?

Okay I'm liking these... not as much as anything that Toqger or Kyoryuger had to offer, but I'm liking them.

Ooh, PaonMaru has an Aztec theme to it. Didn't notice that before :D

There's an arm port on the back of Dumpmaru, the arm looks like it stores there.

Didn't notice the Aztec theme, I like it even more now!

That's what I thought too. Still, I think I like the look of the Dumpmaru arm over Shinobimaru, but I'm glad they found a way to use all of the mecha. :)

Cant wait to get these two beauties! This line is shaping up to be exactly what I'd hoped for.

An elephant and a UFO. Was Bandai just throwing a dart at random pictures on the wall when picking designs for mecha this year?

If you can even call it a UFO.

Those shuriken look quite nice, and I'm loving how zany these mecha are. Can't wait to see them in the show!

I gotta say, they got me at artillery elephant, I don't think either design is flawless but I like the idea behind them.

A mechanical alien from the looks of it.

Love both the elephant and ufo support mecha.

For whatever reason, I'm loving the zords for this series. Does it fit with the ninja motif, no. But I can live with that. Fun toys are still fun toys.

Considering they don't really explain why the existing zords are what they are, I'm wondering if they'll explain why an Elephant and UFO show up.

I was in love with UFO even before seeing these clearer images. But now knowing that UFo becomes a little spaceman complete with astronaut helmet in it's combined form? Oh hell yes.

I'm liking UFOMaru's design.
