Kamen Rider Kiva

I am interested to tokusatsu now, mainly the sentai and kamen rider. Doushite? Well... one of the reason is because of my Japan trip, and I happen to see those stuff there, and I decided to watch at home, and apparently they are good. (the kamen rider especially, the sentai is kinda stupid, but still good).

Anyway, I only bought this one 'thing' (and hopefully only this one) - although I'm tempted to buy the belt toy as well. Box pic:

Kamen Rider Kiva (not emperor form) has 3 forms and another mixed form. The first one is the basic form. The finishing move is the wake up fever - and then kick the fangire.



The second form is the Garuru Kiva - the weapon is Garuru Saber.



The third form is the Banshee Kiva - the weapon is Bansha Magnum.



The fourth form is the Dogga Kiva - the weapon is Dogga Hammer.



The final form is the mixed form - Dogabaki.

Engine Oh - Engine Sentai Go-Onger

I felt disappointed with the mini size of the candy toys version of the Engines, so I decided to buy the DX version, only to make me more disappointed due to it's incapability to pose as well as the candy toys version.

It's big alright, fully added with engine souls gimmick for its sounds and light source for more playability. But... I prefer poses. Oh yea, this post at the same time revoke the engine oh posted previously and changed all the pictures to provide the DX version instead. So, I'll post the first three main engines. Anwyay, the box pictures.

The first one is Engine Speedor (炎神スピードル) who likes to say 'doru doru'. He is a hybrid of condor and racing car (speedor - speedy condor) thus he is the only engine who has the semi flying mode.



The second one is Engine Bus-on (炎神バスオン) who likes to say 'on on'. He is hybrid of lion and bus (buson - bus lion). He can launch missiles at enemies, and also act as storage for the engine oh sword.



The third one is Engine BearV (炎神ベアールＶ) who likes to say 'v v'. She is hybrid of bear and truck, she usually 'chew' the enemies. Not much about her actually.



Together, they can combine - gattai - into engine oh - king of engine.

Magiking - Mahou Sentai Magiranger

I felt terrible to not update this thing for few .. months? Anyway, firstly first, I wanted to brag, that at last, finally I have my very first DX sentai toy. This time is from the Magiranger series which was released in 2005 in Japan, and 'imported' by the US as Power Rangers Mystic Force in 2006.

I bought it for cheap, I even went for another set. Anyway, this is the box's picture.

Magiking (or Titan Megazord) consists of 5 humanoid - giant robot mode - called Majin. They are MagiPhoenix, MagiGaruda, MagiMermaid, MagiFairy and MagiTaurus.



And when they combine together, they become Magiking.



And they still have another alternate mode, MagiDragon, which can be rode by MagiPhoenix.
