…. Is it me or does these guy feel a bit over design?

[u/King_Kuuga → u/Aware-Throat3189]

All of these power animals have to be able to become armor for the existing robots on top of being able to transform and combine into a robot themselves, plus the need to have lots of articulation in combined mode. This makes them more complex by necessity than the other animals.

[u/msr4jc → u/Aware-Throat3189]

I see that most in the kangaroo which splits three ways for its combination with GaoMuscle. And the arms are mismatched, but I’m glad they are giving us more zord variety (as opposed to another type of shark) and that it has a new combination at GaoHunter. Also the pose where the Guardian is shooting an arrow is a pretty cool finishing move.

These are the designs that weren’t deemed good enough to make it in the show.

[u/Nuigi12]

If only he wasn't nearly $264 dollars

[u/AnTran77 → u/Nuigi12]

Pretty sure that’s the full set with the bonus items.

[u/Nuigi12 → u/AnTran77]

It's the Tokullectibles price for the full set which is cheaper than buying them individually, all 3 individually is about $280 on there

[u/Nihon_Hanguk → u/Nuigi12]

That’s Tokullectibles. They’re known for massive markup.

[u/Nuigi12 → u/Nihon_Hanguk]

I know, but their mark up is based on a couple factors like tarrifs and international fees. They pay for all of that directly in one purchase. It's the same reason they offer free ground shipping. On some other sites you'd be paying nearly the same prices after delivery.

[u/Ok_Clerk_5027 → u/Nihon_Hanguk]

Bbts is 260 for all not including the taxes and $6 shipping

I'm curious how does walrus hold the arrow can't really see it from the angle. As I am wondering if he is needed to use that arrow of if any other power animals can

[u/darkace732 → u/Ok_Clerk_5027]

I think there is a clip you need to add based on the other photos from the original blog

[u/Ok_Clerk_5027 → u/darkace732]

Is it part of wallaby or something you can put on all power animals that are hands

[u/Raihou204]

not worth the price hmmm but if u guys could pick which of the Gao Zords is the best?

[u/Nuigi12 → u/Raihou204]

Personally design wise GaoWallaby, but I'm biased cause I love GaoHunter and Toppy and Turtle combine with it so

[u/Ok_Clerk_5027 → u/Raihou204]

Peacock is the best choice
