King Express!!!! :D

Aw yea i called it nice

I haven't seen a single episode of the series yet, but I thought that the dino mecha was an enemy mecha!

If a new train mecha is able to transform by taking-over an enemy mecha, then that is WILD!!!

Love the head too!

T-Rex head Arm, makes me think Beast Wars Megatron.

"A brand new mocha will be added to the Kiramger’s arsenal; King Express!"
I didn't know they added coffee to their arsenal :lol

Now it just needs a rubber ducky.

Which makes it funny that Kiryu had a typo on the page for this calling it "brand new MOCHA".

Holy christ, that looks way better than i was expecting

Hoooly hell Kiramager just keeps putting out mecha that look bloody incredible. I don't like mech fights in Sentai, but if they keep looking this good then it'll make things a lot more tolerable

What I have gathered from the scans(spoilers)

- Smog Jouki(jouki means steam in Japanese) is a tyrannosaurus-type robot, and uses a finisher move called Burn Blacker(the way it shoots the blast seems like a reference to Guardian Beast Tyrannosaurus from Zyuranger)
- To combat this threat Juuru conjures a new mashin, Mashin Express, a mashin that is faster and is in the shape of an express train and is originally the White Kiramastone
- Smog Jouki is overtaken by the White Kiramastone/Mashin Express and is reborn into the steam locomotive-type mashin, Mashin Jouki
- The two new train-type mashins can combine into King Express
- King Express can fire a boomerang from its chest, can form a chainsaw on one of its arms, and its finisher move is the Burn Blaster, where a rail-shaped beam coils around the enemy and King Express finishes it off by firing the boomerang-shaped energy blast
- It seems the ruler of Yodonheim, Emperor Yodon, will make an appearance in the foreseeable future


So one thing to keep in mind here is that the scans seem to differentiate between Smog Jouki and Mashin Jouki by saying the t-rex form is Smog Jouki and the steam locomotive is Mashin Jouki. And Mashin Express combines to the tail-end of Mashin Jouki, the toy ending up to being 70cm in length. Also Mashin Express forms the head and upper torso of King Express, while Mashin Jouki forms the lower torso and limbs.

All aboard the dino chainsaw choo choo!!!

Still nothing about a new ranger

A dino that is also a train! Sounds like Heisei Riders VS. Showa Riders, Featuring Super Sentai!

Gabutyra did the same thing in that movie.

The chainsaw feels like it was ripped from Dino Force Brave!

Screaming toqger 2.0 tig shadow line vs imagination red

Not really sure because of how things are these days but typically we can expect to hear about it around June.

I'm loving how this looks. If the rest of these mechs look as good then I can forgive the first mech looking so weird

I get what they were going for here with the light and dark, but the colors definitely clash in a way Cosmo Raptor doesn’t. My issue is the random blue on Mashin Express. If those areas were purple to match Jouki this would look way better

It’s still a pretty cool robo, but not what I expected. I wish Mashin Express had more clear parts, but I love that both trains continue the stone modes. I expected the gimmick to be dropped like the folding in Shinkenger, but I’m pleasantly surprised.

I came across a neat blog entry about the combination potential of Kiramaizin. Figured it would be appropriate with the reveal of KingExpress. It’s in Japanese, but the pictures are self explanatory if you aren’t using something like google translate.
