RV Robo






So I mentioned a while back that I thought Turbo Robo had a lot of neat ideas to but it needed a bit more ironing out it terms of how it executed them. That's what RV Robo is because it's basically Turbo Robo 2.0. It's like they looked at Turbo Robo, went back to drawing board on it, and out came RV Robo as a result. It just does a lot of things Turbo Robo tried to do but better. There's a better spread of colours throughout the whole mecha, the combination is more interesting plus I think all the pieces were used more efficiently since we don't have like 3 vehicles forming the lower legs, and the overall shape and sillouette is more rounded and angular, not as blocky as Turbo Robo was. I also really like the details on it, especially the chest. The way the red and blue mixed together, how the spotlight forms the chest, it looks so good. RV Robo is just a great improvement over Turbo Robo.

Sirender


Sirender is a pretty good looking. It's rather simple in how it goes from vehicle mode to robot mode but it still works. Things like the police badge and the traffic lights on the chest nicely emphasize the police motif and I quite like the head with its flip up visor. It's a pretty good design all around.

VRV Robo






I'm pretty sure this is the last time we see the 5 humanoid mecha concept until like Magiranger or something. VRV Robo is a pretty ambitious design, having 5 humanoid mechas that can transform into their own vehicle modes while also being able to combine together. I think the attempt was pretty succesfull barring a few issues. All 5 of the VRV Machines are very distinct from each other in both robot and vehicle form. VRV Robo himself is a pretty solid design, a lot bigger and bulkier than RV Robo which is a design choice that also transfers to the vehicles since most of the VRV Machines are based on vehicles that are big and heavy whereas the Ranger Vehicles all look like their built for speed. The head is also a little endearing with how it's almost shaped like a V. I just have 2 nagging issues about him. The proportions are sorta off particularly the legs with how thin the thighs are in comparison to the lower legs. Also his combination, specifically where all the various pieces go to is almost exactly like RV Robo which makes both mechas feel a bit too similar to each other.

Scramble Intersection Robo

From what I understand, this combination was created because pieces from both mechas were too damaged to continue fighting. So even in the show this was kind of thrown together combination. Still though it is pretty cool that both mechas are able to swap limbs with each other. Plus the fact that it's named after an actual intersection, one that's common to Japan, is pretty hilarious. I still think RV Robo works better with its own limbs as VRV Robo's limbs are simply too big.

Victrailer


Ehhhhhhhhhhh. I mean I get that Victrailer is the carrier mech of this show so by definition he has to be big and lack any real human like proportion. Even still the fact that the matter is, his mechas just consist of the cab stacked on top of the trailer boxes. Really the most noteworthy thing about him are his arms since they become VRV Robo's finisher cannons.

Radiacar Robo


So uh.........this is a thing that exist. I mean it is clearly suppose to be a joke but.......well just look at it. It has a giant cat head, it has an actual tail, there is a steering wheel right on its groin. It trancends any and all ways to describe it.
