[Toy Review] Soul of Chogokin GX-71 Lion Force Voltron/ Beast King GoLion

From days of long ago, from uncharted regions of the universe, comes a legend, the legend of Voltron, Defender of the Universe! This iconic robot is the titular mecha of the hit 80’s cartoon which spanned a variety of sequels and spin-offs. The original series itself is an adaptation of Toei Animation’s two anime series, Beast King GoLion and Armored Fleet Dairugger XV; with the main Voltron, Lion Force, obviously based on GoLion.   Now, thankfully since Toei and Bandai are in a wonderful working relationship it led to Voltron…

Review: Mini-Pla Kishiryu Gattai Series 03 Kishiryu Neptune & Dimevolcano

Today’s review is the third Mini-Pla release within the Kishiryu Gattai Series, which is based on Kishiryu Sentai Ryusoulger! Now, this set is base on the sixth member of the team, Ryusoul Gold and his partner, Kishiryu Mosarex. However, this release also provides another Dimevolcano, and new alternative parts Kishiryu-Oh. These additions are thankfully to help ensure that fans can make the both combination: SpinoThunder and Gigant Kishiryu-Oh. Yet, we should not overlook Mosarex’s warrior mode, Kishiryu Neptune! Also, I apologize for not calling Mosarex, a mosasaurus in the video;…

Review: SDCC Power Rangers Lightning Collection Mighty Morphin Red & Zeo Gold Ranger Set

I, Wheelchair21 return with one of my latest reviews, which is the SDCC Power Rangers Lightning Collection Jason 2-Pack! This is the first-ever San Diego Comic Con exclusive and first convention item for Power Rangers under Hasbro’s management. Also, unlike Bandai this item is not exclusively obtainable at the event, and had a limited release through Hasbro’s official store, Hasbropulse.com! Thankfully enough the set is not centered on or feature Tommy Oliver (Jason David Frank); instead it is about the first Red Ranger, Jason Lee Scott (Austin St. John).  …

Review: Super Mini-Pla Chōjin Sentai Jetman Jet Garuda

Today’s review will have Super Sentai fans taking to the sky again as I, Wheelchair21, look at Super Mini-Pla Jet Garuda from Chōjin Sentai Jetman! For those unaware, Jetman is the 15 entry in the Super Sentai series preceding Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger which was adapted in Power Rangers. Chōjin Sentai Jetman is loosely inspired and a tribute to Gatchaman with the team’s theme based on birds and jets. Now, this Super Mini-Pla release easily replicates the team’s secondary mecha, that they received from the Back Dimension Dimensian Soldiers. Jet Garuda…

Review: Mini-Pla Kishiryu Gattai Series 02 Kishiryu-Oh Five Knights & DimeVolcano

Today’s review is probably the longest video review that I, Wheelchair21, has ever produced! Now, this review centered on the Mini-Pla based on the current Super Sentai series, Kishiryu Sentai Ryusoulger. For those unaware, the method in which the Ryusoulgers’ mecha, the Kishiryu, combine and how the set is sold leads to a variety of forms. In total the assortment consists of eight parts, but when assembled they make the first six Kishiryu seen. The individual mecha either link together to form combinations, or switch out with another for a…

For those unaware, Jetman is the 15 entry in the Super Sentai series preceding Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger which was adapted in Power Rangers. Chōjin Sentai Jetman is loosely inspired and a tribute to Gatchaman with the team’s theme based on birds and jets. Now, this Super Mini-Pla release easily replicates the team’s mecha, the Jet Machines, as well as both combinations, the Icarus Haken and Jet…

Review: S.H.Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Kiva

Today’s review is consider a special item as it is S.H.Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Kiva, the last Heisei Rider needed to complete all 20 Riders. However, for long time collectors it is the figure necessary to complete the first ten, from with Kuuga to Decade. Now, Kiva was released previously in the S.H.Figuarts line, but that release featured the character in his final form, Emperor Form. In addition, S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Kiva Emperor Form was a December 2010 release alongside S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Dark Kiva. Yet, as a Shinkocchou…

Review: S.H.Figuarts Ultraman Belial

Today’s toy review is a look at the Tamashii Nations S.H.Figuarts Ultraman Belial from the Ultra series. This figure is based on Ultraman Belial’s original Reionics form seen throughout a variety of films and series. Now, oddly enough this is not the first time the character has received a S.H.Figuarts, as last year Tamashii Nations released S.H.Figuarts Belial Atrocious, a form seen in Ultraman Geed. While the two forms/ figures are the same character, each body is engineered differently. Yet, their accessory count maybe near even. Nevertheless, this review tackles…
