I'm gonna stand my previous opinions and hold out for the eventual US Power Rangers Zord Builder release. It'll be a whole lot cheaper and look way better.

Yeah, I doubt it. Look at any BOA counterpart to the original and that doesn't pan out. It's fine if you want it because of zord builder functionality, but I simply can't accept the statement that it would somehow look better. It'll be smaller, less accurate, and less durable overall than it's Japanese counterpart.

Well, we'll just have to see what happens when it's revealed.

Got to agree with Den-O here, I saw a ton of mecha this weekend, and Gosei Great in particular because its the only newer one I own, huge difference in JPN VS US, GokaiOh/Legendary as well. I really hate to think what Kyoryujin is gonna like just because of where they'll shove ZB pegs.

Also to be on topic, I haven't even seen ToQoh over $60 on secondary market, box Im not sure about, but even EMS shipping shouldn't even be close to $100.

The most likely scenario is that the natural Kyoryujin shoulders will become Zord Builder pegs, there will be Zord Builder ports on the underbellies of the smaller Zyudenryu, and the knee Zord Builder pegs might be omitted entirely.
