Well that didn't take long:
http://www.toysrus.com/product/index...uctId=60959386
$80 price point and TRU's crappy website strikes again with pictures of the DX Zyudenchi box set. Why don't any of their exclusives have accurate pictures despite the toys all being released already? Isn't that a little misleading?
UPDATE: Being the fool who is easily parted with his money that I am, I went and picked up this set during my lunch break. It is indeed the one pictured earlier in this thread. The 27 are 01-23, 1+ T-Rex Super Charger, V Dino Victory Charger, X Dino X Charger, & SD Super Drive Charger. I haven't had time to crack them open yet, nor do I have the morpher to see what sounds 1+, V, X, & SD make. The decals are shiny like the Charger 2-packs, and generally the decals look better applied. The box advertises "Metallic Edition", but the chargers themselves don't appear any different than the ones I already have. I guess that's just referring to the decals.
Alas, no sign of 00
UPDATE UPDATE: I finally got some time to open the set up and look at it (stupid box can't be opened non-destructively. But if you're careful, you can get away with only pulling apart glue on one corner and cutting tape everywhere else). Turns out the colored paint on all of the Chargers has some specks in them to try to make them "metallic". It doesn't seem to really work in practice and is only noticeable when it is up close. The inner decal QC is a lot better that on some of the Power Pack releases. The #1 Charger has some extra ugly numbers printed on the back by the molded in "mouth" part, but thankfully none of the other ones have that. The V, X, & SD Chargers all have the same pin layout but different QR codes, so they'll all make the same sounds.
Overall I think this is a great set to get all the (nearly)show accurate Chargers without extra fluff, but wait until the set inevitably goes on sale like all overpriced TRU exclusives before it. Though visually, I still like the series 2 clear plastic and solid color Chargers if you don't mind giving up show accuracy.
