    It is actually upsetting to me that I don’t have this book in my hand right this minute.

    To be fair, God Raijin-Oh would be nearly impossible to make work as a perfect combiner that doesn't look like shit without one or both mechs getting a substantial redesign.

    Well tbf the brave gokin one looked ok other than the feet being a tad long. The arms getting bulked up did help the design.

    It’s still pretty cool that we’re getting a model kit. I bet it’ll make for an awesome build and display piece

    I still have to laugh at the fact that Go-Saurer and Raijin-Oh are getting more love than the mech series that inspired them.

    They look ok, I'm not really excited though.
    One day someone will make new actual toys of these great characters and it'll be glorious.

    Why not. With the interest in brave and Eldoran beigng revived in the past year or two i wouldnt say NEVER. Unlikely maybe? But not never. I could see at least more popular brave like Might Gaine getting new toy at the least.

    I think the fact that it's Kotobukiya, not Bandai, making these model kits says it all really. Why would Bandai put tons of money into making 300+ dollar SoCs when they can't even be bothered to get the rights to make cheaper model kits, even for the sake of testing the waters?
