I'm not really sure what's up with the Galient. The pictures make it look like two separate figures, but it also seems like the two boxes contain half of one. It might just be that pictures of the more detailed figure are incorrect. No idea though.

Edit: Think I found it. The detailed mech appears to be the Wave W.H.A.M. version. Not sure why they have the two mixed though.

Ooh, nice! Glad I already have stuff coming from AmiAmi in July so can just add to that month.

And amusingly, their description lists it as being from Kyoryuger.

Got my preorder in. Damn these are pricey, $90 for the pair. but I know I'll regret them if I pass. Besides, it's only the two. I doubt I'll ever get any minipla ever again, just stick with Gundam models.

I really wish Bandai would branch out their Plamo into Super Sentai and other lines so we could get proper mecha models with detail and prices to match Gundam.

That'd be the day.

The parts separation on the Dragonzord better be phenomenalfor what they're asking.

Y'know, the more I think of it, the more I think I should cancel my Dragonzord preorder and ask HLJ for a return and refund on Daizyujin. These are grossly overpriced for what they are and I'm just having a hard time getting over it. $50 for what is basically a High Grade which is normally a fifth the cost. $40 for a model that's not even half that even. I'm gonna end up paying close to $100 for a sticker covered model that parts forms.

After buying SMPla GGG, I have to agree. Not that GGG was bad...but it's basically a transformable SRC with no diecast and stickers. If there was a viable alternative to GGG at that price, I'd do it...even if it was a Power Rangers Legacy-style brick. But I'm passing Daizyujin and the Dragonzord...just not worth the money when I have decent representations in my collection already and have the SoC version on preorder.

I know Bandai of Japan isn't listening...but when they start doing older Sentai mech in Super Minipla, I'll be back.

I haven't received Daizyujin, yet (it's bundled with the Figuarts Ex-Aid set,) but for those who have, how does it compare to the Kyurenoh minipla?

I personally like it. The one thing I noticed is that it's not "pop out the pieces" like the regular minipla. I had to use a pair of nippers on my Daizyujin so make sure you have a pair. There is also a teensy bit of partsforming (the T-Rex head and neck guard in particular; I wish they pegged in securely in the chest in combined mode) but that's pretty normal for most minipla (Kyurenoh being the exception rather than the rule). The finished product is the same size as Kyurenoh which may bother some people considering the price (I will post a picture later tonight). If the price is not an issue than I highly recommend it!
