Wasnt Hurricaneger the last one with diecast? And BOA pretty much nixed all of it? Anyways I dont have the US release but got the Japanese version during my stay in Hong Kong last year. Really cool toy. Love the emblem modes. Just wish there was a place to store the sword and shield.

I picked it up as well and I really like it. The price kinda hurt, but still I love the thing.

Yep! I love it! So much so that I've bought all of the auxillary mecha so I can complete Samurai Ha-Oh (even though I already have the BOA version). Leagues better than the BOA version though I like the BOA version as well.

yeah the nerfing by BOA is far overstated..... It's not really THAT bad. (SPD Morpher not withstanding)

Really? Removing the entire origami mode of all the ShinkenOh mecha? That's overstated? Anytime BOA takes a toy and fundamentally alters it to a point that it can't faithfully create what is seen on screen, that's the very definition of nerfing. And pretty much ALL of their Shinkenger stuff has been overwhelmingly nerfed.

For those who have DX ShinkenOh and auxillary mecha, which auxillary mecha are best for it, and which ones downright suck?

All of them are a bit mediocre tbh. Just choose one(s) you like. Or just get them all for Daitenkuu.

While I don't own them, just based on general observations, none of them are very good, but the Tora Origami does seem to be a lot better than the Kabuto and Kaijiki.

I saw it (and the Legacy Megazord) and was sorely tempted, but that's a big chunk of change, fellas. I had to leave both of them. *grumble*
If this had been a few years ago and it was Daibouken or Engine-Oh, though, you'd better believe they'd be at home right now.

Love my ShinkenOh. A bit stubbier in the legs than the Samurai Megazord, but that's what I have the minipla for (also minipla Samurai HaOh actually looks half-decent), but so much more solid, emblem modes, and no "corgie-dragon".
But as much as I like the main robot, all the combined modes are pretty stupid-looking. Kajiki ShinkenOh is mostly passable as long as you don't put the sword in the helmet. Tora ShinkenOh is a top-heavy mess, Kabuto has too much hanging off the back and looks silly, Ika is meh but not offensive, the Tenkuu combo is okay and my favored display combo, Cowboy Daikai ShinkenOh is front heavy, stubby armed, and his head is too big. The US version actually wins out there. And the Ikatenkuu Buster is just.. just... ..no Ika DaikaiOh is decent on its own, but the BoA Clawzord is close enough to DaiKaiOh that I don't see why anyone would need both. |
