Man I've gotta say that after seeing these pics I have no interest at all in buying these. I hate it when they just make up new transformations like this. I wanted to compare this thing to my original Gosei Great but it's clear that the BOJ version is superior.

If I'm going to spend $150-175 on a mecha, I'm glad I spent it on the Tategami li-oh, instead. I was considering buying the Goseiger toys in August, but a fraction of the price and they're close enough, since I'm not going to lose sleep over them not looking exactly like Gosei Great.

Let's see what this Megazord can do:



And the instruction sheet...which is 2 sided





Megazord size comparison:

$150-175? What prices are you looking at? I paid $110 shipped for a pair of Gosei Great and Ground. Goseiger toy prices have been on a downward trend for months. And even my brand new Tategami Li-Oh was only about $124 delivered.

120 shipped for LT-06 is likely at a place like Amiami, which isn't the easiest place to get a shipment from. Even HLJ has it for $120 before shipping with a quick search. And where are you finding the Goseiger things for 50-60 a piece?

Actually I got Li-Oh on Mandarake, it's currently still listed at several of their shop locations for 8000 yen before shipping. Got the Great and Ground from a member here at that price. Found all of the header sets in one big lot for 1500 yen on Mandarake as well. Like I said Goseiger toy prices have been on steady decline, most likely because of Megaforce coming up soon.

The pictures make it very clear they are not...

And he also highlighted a lot of the differences. And they aren't that close.

The stuff released looks rather good. That said, I'm not sure what, if anything, I'll get. Not because any of this stuff looks bad, but there's other stuff that I'm collecting that'll take priority over getting back into Power Rangers (Transformers, TMNT, Halo, Star Trek...). Though once I see this stuff in-person, I might not be able to help myself, lol...

Honestly, I could very well be in the minority on this, but honestly, all of this looks better than the BoJ equivalents...to me anyways. If I wasn't collecting so much as it was, and/or had a fair amount of extra cash, I would be pretty much all-in for this line.

I'm not sure what to make of the Zords yet. On the one hand, the sword is a big improvement over the Goesiger one, and I think they all look pretty decent individually. On the other hand, the new combinations may take some getting used to, and seems to be unnecessary additions on Bandai's part.

At least from what I can see, a few of these Zords seem to have lacking paint details. In fact, they almost look as if there were supposed to have stickers to make up the detail. Were there any stickers, raz?

And no, that Megazord is not worth $40. $33 was already pushing it and you are not charging $40 for a smaller Megazord, Toys R Us. Why that was the price of the full-sized electronic BoJ DX replicas a few years back! At the rate these prices rise, they will be no different than Japanese pricing.
