Grab your boarding passes. It's the first mini pla offerings from Resha Sentai ToQger and it's pretty sweat.

Almost a perfect mini replica of the DX toy, the mini pla ToQOh goes one step farther by adding a mini pla first, optinal articulation! You can combine the Resha kits together to form a DX style apperence, or you can separate the Red Green and Blue Resha, and reassemble them to give the kit waist and hip articulation. It's simple but brilliant.

Aside from the articulation gimmick, the resha kits have a few more tricks. Green and Blue lock on with simple round peg but they have a long groove on their sides. This groove lines up with a track on the Red Resha, and keeps the Green and Blue from getting misaligned and locks them into place quite well. All the trains can detach from their cars, leaving them as tiny little replicas of the DX. The whole kit can combine as a bunch of trains, then stand up just like the big one. It's truly a wonderful little kit.

Very nice! The alternate transformation bit with the hips to support articulation is pretty ingenious. I'm impressed it managed to keep so much playability from the DX toy.

The hip change is brilliant! I hope they do similar gimmicks on future mini pla. Diesel Oh im looking at you.

I guess I'll have to disagree on that. As a sword it is proportionally larger and, well, more like a sword, but it compromises the gun form and doesn't look quite as good stuck on the Red Ressha.

However, I guess if the sword form is the only thing you're after, the larger size is more befitting.

What's wrong with the gun mode?
And here I thought the sword looked bad because one side was super hollow...

The blade/barrel is a bit too long for the gun mode. Not really proportionate for a one-handed gun, in my opinion.

I'm just finishing painting mine up at the moment (just got the Red Ressha left to do), absolutely love this guy. The build is incredibly simple but the combo is just so much fun.
