    Scourge, that's a nice Dagwon lineup there. I'm also making do with my Thunder Dagwon KO. Close enough :) 

    Dragon_lord, who's the bot to the right of Might Gaine pointing his gun at the screen? I don't recognize him.

    I think that's Hiryu, the Sonic Bomber remold.

    I took a bunch more photos of the Dagwon guys if anyone wants to see them, although they've been pretty well covered already in the thread.

    That was glorious! When the car ramped over the hill over the terrified soldiers, my world got a little more complete.

    Oh, yes! I'm excited for these.

    Got these guys in the mail today. They're so cool. Although, the SRC was a lot smaller than I was expecting.

    Sweet! My Choryujin is in dire need of new stickers. If they do a set for him I'll have to pick it up for sure!

    Funny how things turn out...
    I've wanted a Dynoguyst for ages, I finally get one, and while it's nice, I'm a little bit unerwhelmed. Same with Big Volfogg, nice, but lacking something, and I start thinking maybe I'm done with Braves.

    Then I open J-Decker, and I'm expecting a Star Convoy brick from the look of it, but no, a surprisingly fun transformation and an amazing looking robot mode. I'm smitten.

    That's a shame, I always figured Dino looked neat myself. I was expecting Big Volfogg to be a bit cruddy, so was surprised he had electronics and such, he is a bit of a lump though.

    Tempted by DX J-Decker, but I don't like the Fire combo, so I nabbed the SRC instead.

    Every Brave toy has managed to surprise me somehow. Sure they're no modern toys, being bricks and all, but theres always something that makes me smile. Ok maybe no Draias... He was underwhelming to me.

    agreed draias was a little disappointing. But still rad in his own unique squat dragon way.

    Since I picked up Dynogeist last year, he has become one of my favorite all-time toys. While I understand it's a matter of taste, though. My liking of the figure comes from the alt modes (all forms I enjoy) and how well he pulls off the conversion. TBH he's in my opinion the best triple changer made to date for those reasons.

    Each to their own. I like the robot mode and the colour scheme a lot, but the jet mode is very weak at the back and the animal mode looks slightly ******ed. I really get a Horrorcon feel from him.
    Still, I enjoy how he transforms quite a lot. Most of the Brave toys have an instinctive transformation that really has been missing from HasTak toys for at least the last half a decade.

    Opened God Max yesterday...not bad, Battle Horn Bomber to open tonight (I like to stagger my Brave openings), but so far from my recent haul, J Decker is totally winning, might combine him with Duke Fire in a bit.

    Always love how, as long as you've seen the show, you know how the toy works.

    Good haul too!

    Just tried to combine the two to make Fire J Decker, how do I put Duke Fire's head away? It feels too resistant to just push, and there doesn't seem to be a button to press.

    Pretty sure you just push it down. Down recall there being any mechanisms to operate it.

    Fixed it, had to wedge a knife to move a little yellow tab which was just stopping the head from being able to move downwards.
