Like every goldion hammer, it's a great idea thats just too impractical in a world where physics apply and dont expect to do much with it except having him stand there. For me, I wanted the set primarily for the star parts. It's expensive, but also still the cheapest transforming GGG you can get.

I just finished my GGG upgrade set yesterday as well. I forgot how annoying the mane parts were on Stealth Gao I until I was pulling it off to attach Stealth Gao II. Then I realized that they had improved those parts.
Goldy Marg is a nice little figure and an interesting build, but I was unable to get GGG into a standing pose with the Goldion Hammer. A shame that the stand that came with Stealth Gao I is too short to use with GGG.

I also wish they had gone with slide on caps for Stealth Gao II's turbines. I'm worried that if I swap between the solid black and clear green ones, one of the pegs'll break. Probably on the clear green ones.


I've also slowly been working my Kryuuranger SP01 set. I'm really digging the metallic plastic and the molded in rangers in the cockpits. They look great if you carefully cut out and apply the ranger decal that otherwise goes unused on this kits. I hope they'll continue with the rest of the mecha in SP sets. sets 04, 05, & 06 have pre-orders up at places, but I haven't seen an SP02 yet.
