    Ok, so here is the situation, I had placed an order for the Gokaiger Treasure Box with RiderProxy when it was first announced, but now I can't afford it anymore, so does anyone wanna take over the order?

    Here is the e-mail that I got from her:

    Ok, so I pre-ordered a Galleon Buster, and it appears to come with a new key.
    This is what showed up on my order.

    Any ideas to what this is?

    The Go-On Wings key, the split gold and silver one, is a first-run bonus, much like the Ganbaride cards that were included with the first runs of some DX Kamen Rider OOO toys. Only, a cooler bonus.

    im waay late on megazord toys, i was always looking at them in stores since MMPR but found them a bit too 'kiddy' looking, instead i was buying beastwars....nothing kiddy about them lol, anyway i really would have been better buying megazords. when i bought my first one at meijer about 3 years ago (jungle master megazord) on sale i was like 'wow, this thing is so well made, everything clicks in place perfectly and so easily'.....pity that was the end of the real dx releases for the west and so begain the hunt, i think I now have about 33 megazords!

    I regret not getting them back then too (though it was more a case of I didnt have the money). Now I've got so many haha. I did lose interest around In Space but got interested again during Wild Force (enough that I bought the Wild Force Megazord and Predazord by saving up. Never got kongazord (at least I never saw it over here) and the Isis was too expensive at the time. Now I have nearly the whole lot :lol .

    yeah i recall original megazod being 40 quid in 93? (i was in uk) that was a chunk of change esp when you consider that a leader class TF is that price now! megazord (ie megazords generally) prices seem to be creeping up slowly at the moment but for the most part ive got my collection around retail (or retail plus import costs) so not too bad, it just so happens that big toys cost a lot to ship! Ive got gokai oh but am contemplating getting goryujin, machfalcon and maybe gaolion but even via a friend in japan thats going to cost....

    Because of pricing (and articulation) I only buy the candy toys of the new releases. But theres not really much choice for the older series (just a choice between DX and Standard releases lol).

    Seeing that, I really want to make a picture of the rest of the Gokaigers holding up the giant Mobirates with GokaiRed struggling to put the key in.

    I don't, and probably will never have the materials to make this picture.
    People with disposable income, your path has been laid out before you!

    So, three days after I e-mail them, they change their ETA for Gokai Red and throw up Gokai Silver (literally the very two questions I asked) ... :lol 

    Bastards.

    (pre-ordered :D )

    This is the Bandai asia version, I guess Hong Kong is gearing up on the Shinkenger releases, just didn't know that they were going with the Power Ranger name

    That's pretty awesome. Bandai Asia markets really get the best of both worlds, at least from what I've seen in past lines like RPM. They get BoA's action figures and BoJ's role-play, if I remember correctly. Malaysia did get BoA's Megazords though, unfortunately, and priced them higher than they would sell on eBay!
