Mammoth Ranger! Goushi!

Today we're taking a look at S.H. Figuarts Mammoth Ranger from Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger! Mammoth Ranger was recently released as Tamashii Web Exclusive, as such it features the newer windowless box style. Otherwise the packaging is pretty nice but you're here for the figure!

Mammoth Ranger is of course the same basic body as the other Zyurangers with a head remold. Something about the black on white color scheme makes Goushi look a lot more polished than the 4 previous releases. The black paint applications aren't quite perfect but the figure still looks great. Definitely a great representation for Zyuranger and MMPR fans.

The first thing you'll notice is Mammoth Ranger includes a ton of accessories, half of which aren't his! He comes with extra versions of Tyranno Ranger's Ryugekiken and Tricera Ranger's Tricera Lances. Both of these accessories are remolds of those included with the rangers themselves, these remolded versions are capable of combining to form the Howling Cannon! Though all of the components have not been released yet. The upcoming Tiger Ranger will include the appropriate Mammoth Breaker to form the cannon.

On that topic the Mammoth Breaker included with Mammoth Ranger cannot transform from axe to gun form. The included Breaker is molded only as the axe. So even though I've pictured the axe being held like the gun, it's not actually accurate. The proper axe comes with Tiger Ranger. Also included with Mammoth is the pre-requisite Ranger Stick and the combined Thunder Slinger as well several extra sets of hands.

I also thought it would be cool to have some fun with this one. A while back I cut up a Bouken Red Accel Tector vinyl so I could make ztector armor for SHF Bouken Red. Turns out it makes for a pretty good Once A Ranger Defender Vest Black Ranger too
