Darkonslaught Productions: Power Rangers Legacy Megazord Review




In celebration for the 20th anniversary of Power Rangers Bandai released a new Version of the 2k10 megazord with an even more accurate paint and die-cast parts.  Bandai even took it a step further and made a replica of the original box to go along with it.  The die-cast parts help make it weight and is a nice touch since even the original 93 version didn't have that.  However, they should have thought to fix up the hand so that the sword handle didn't get the chrome scraped off but oh well.  Hopefully they will re-release the 2k10 Titanus along with a dragonzord so that a legacy ultrazord can be formed but only time will tell. Oh I forgot to mention in the video that it is a Toysrus Exclusive so if you want to get one you will need to check there.

Power Rangers Megaforce Hyper Change Zord/ Ultra Gosei Great Megazord Review




The Ultra Change Zord is the final Zord released in the Megaforce toyline until the Fall Line. With it you can power up Gosei Great into the Ultra Gosei Great Megazord.  Interestingly enough they decided to scrap Datas Hyper out of the combination even more by making the Hyper Change Zord apart of the regular bike line.  Its really weird that Bandai America decided to call it a Sea Lion when its supposed to be based on a bullet.  Anyways the header itself is kind of a small piece of plastic since they scrapped the whole head transformation gimmick.  Also as much as its nice they decided to sell it as a a part of the regular bike line its kind of a waste to have another remolded Knight Brothers body since its not in the show. The only purpose to buy this is if you want Hyper Gosei Great otherwise its a big pass since its pretty lame on its own sadly.  I guess you could attach it to the Gosei Blaster/ Megaforce Blaster but its pretty much just combination fodder.

Power Rangers Megaforce Knight Brothers Zords/ Gosei Ground Great Review

<iframe width="480" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/Klk0nT8sihs" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>


The Knight Brothers Zords are an interesting duo that actually looks good in all modes even if Bandai of America found a way to make a submarine fly.  Paint once again is a big issue since the fin pieces on top don't stick out well and at first I didn't even think they were there.  Another problem is that the header ports are strangely colored so they look weird when they help form Gosei Ground but at least they aren't noticeable in Gosei Ground Great mode. Its unfortunate that the staff was hindered due to the Dragon Mechazord's neck being stuck inside its body but at least good so I guess its not a huge loss.  Personally paint and questionable design choices aside the Knight Brothers are worth getting and I am glad that Bandai of America has gotten better since samurai.  This may sound redundant by now but at least they are doing a pretty good job with the resources they got.

DarkOnslaughtProductions: Power Rangers Megaforce Sky Brothers Zords Review



Today I am bringing you the second of the three main headers sets and its the Sea Brothers Zords.The pirate motif looks really nice when it combines with Gosei Great to form the Sea Megazord. It would have been cool to see all three headers have the gimmicks intact but since at least two of them its fine with me. I really like how Bandai of America kept the combinations exactly the same as the Japanese one. The Sea Brothers look really cool as their individual headers and personally is the best design out of all the header sets. Like I said in the video if you had a choice between the three sets to get first I highly recommend this one.

Power Rangers Megaforce Lion Mechazord Review



Back from the Christmas break so here is my review of the Power Rangers Megaforce Lion Mechazord. Megaforce isn't on air yet and still almost all of the mecha have been released which is making it hard to catch up on them. Anyways here is the Lion Mechazord or Groudion from Tensou Sentai Goseiger. The American version isn't too different from the Japanese one but they are a few minor differences which doesn't really affect it much besides the added missiles. It still has the ability to remove the lion header and the good part is that it can still turn into a Robo Knight/ Gosei Knight figure. Unfortunately I don't have the Sky or Sea Lion bikes so I can't make the real combinations but the shark and phoenix mechazords look okay as a temporary limbs. The Lion Mechazord is a pretty good alternative for Groundion so if you couldn't afford the Japanese version this one is a nice replacement.
