Thanks for pointing out set 02 going on sale!
I'm wary of ordering it, particularly because I already ordered set 3 sight-unseen. Also, I recently built set 1, and my feelings about it are a little mixed.
Good stuff:
- Easy build.
- Great articulation.
- They included some (unimpressive) extra gun and drill parts so boxes 1-3 can make a complete KishiryuOh, and these are useful for integrating into different mecha combinations.
- As expected, you can put together lots of different combinations.
The not-so-good-stuff:
- Dull gray plastic on Triken and Ankyrose doesn't look great.
- Design flaw: because you'll be constantly switching parts, the stickers take a beating. The sticker on the Tyramigo KishiryuOh head on mine got mangled because you have to apply a good amount of pressure to switch heads, and I've switched heads quite a bit.
- Ankyrose and Triken are not great mecha. Whereas Tyramigo is pretty good as a stand-alone, the other two are useless outside combinations.
- Connection ports and joints are weak and prone to falling apart. Stuff is constantly popping off of mine, and the elbows do not want to stay together. Given that you'll be switching stuff on the arms regularly, this is a problem. This is the finickiest Sentai minipla I've handled, and I've only owned it for a week.
