Looking at the combined mode it feels like they designed X Emperor and Lupinkaiser to combine and then they suddenly remembered they needed to put the Patranger's vehicles on as well so they just stuck them on.
Yeah when Pat 1 just got stuck on top that was the moment I just lost any sense of interest in this combined mode, one of it not the most laziest zord placement for a combined mode I have ever seen.
The thing that really gets me about it is it is literally just stuck on top, there is nothing to fill the gaps and the combination of how far the front of Pat 1 sticks out as well as Lupin Red's tail fins basically makes it really difficult to see the face unless you are looking straight on and are shining a light on it. From the front it almost looks like the head is getting sandwiched.
I knew I wasn't gonna like the combined form when green and pink got attached to the sides of the feet, but I knew it was gonna be plain stupid when the police car got placed on top of the mech's head
You didn’t use the change gimmick right. When the weapon go “X-Nize” you need to twist again, depending on the head the gun is pointing the other side will be the side you will change into. Also the summon gimmick you didn’t show. Simply twist twice and pull the trigger (provided that you already changed before)
If you want an Ultrazord done right, take a look at the Dino Ultrazord from the original Mighty Morphing Power Rangers, it is well design, has a fantastic concept of dinosaurs combining into one big zord, it is a combination of all zord, not ALL of them to exact (It only uses Titanus's front paws and chest piece), but a good amount so that people could tell that it is an Ultrazord, and that was the VERY FIRST Ultrazord to be created.
Well, the collectathon is Toei's new business strategy, and judging by how the shows have been looking recently, they've been getting quite a bit of money off of it. So, it's a tradeoff; better shows for more cluster-y toys. ToQ Rainbow can still go fuck itself, though.
Peaked with Gaoranger. Pretty much he ultimate megazord builders. A few arm zords have elbows, and leg components have knees iirc. Older ones like zyuranger onwards are pretty normal and redundant. Shit hits the fan with gokaiger and kyoryuger. Zyuohger is just plain trash.
Pretty sure the knob on X Train Gold isn't meant to simulate a dial, since it's the Patranger mode, so much as simulate the front of a classic steam locomotive. Also, you didn't properly show off the X Changer or VS Changer sounds. And yes, Good Cool Kaiser VSX has odd proportions...in toy form. On the show, they'll probably give the suit much better proportions, because they can cheat like that, but the toy needs to make it work in real life.
I think you missed the point on this product, its a toy, for children, sure it may not be cohesive or as robust as a high end figure or gunpla it still holds charm to how unique it is I think it's also best to watch the show to fully appreciate the toys, the review felt very hollow otherwise, there was absolutely no need to criticise it on not looking like a gun
3:38-3:46 first of all, I got my set and there was no problem with the smokestack. Second of all, the hole was unavoidable, there’s a sliding door in the show but they couldn’t make that work in toy form, they simply couldn’t.
There's not. You really are expected to just use the frail as all hell clips and pray it stays together (which it won't because the feet are too heavy for the clips)
I waited to watch this until I got mine in the mail today, and I have a lot of similar complaints (but not all the same, oddly), the only big one not mentioned being that Silver and Fire make poor feet and you can't stick Gunner's arms out without it trying to fall forward. I also saved that magazine scan you mentioned, and now I feel a bit gipped because they're basically completely different, with more paint, better proportions, better heads. They're entirely different toys. They still have the pegs and raised portions for VSX's feet, so they it's not like they added that and that changed anything. The first pictures of VSX also appear to be of that version of the toy since you can see the c-clips and wheels on the underside of Silver and Gold, and they're molded in the same colors as the toys rather than the black they ended up as on the final release. I really want to know what happened with this and why they scrapped the entire original mold. Also, I bought two for display purposes, and Gunner does not fit on my shelf since his head is too tall.
Why did they think it was a good idea to have the combination be made up 90% of clips instead of pegs? Also, I wouldn’t be surprised if the combination was originally just the X-Trains and Good Striker, and they had to throw the Dial Fighters & Trigger Machines in last minute
just some extra info, the gun also doubles as the transformation item for lupin/patren x, and to access that mode you need to twist the gun in any configuration once till it says "x-nize" then twist it again and you'll hear a "kaitou x-change" or "patren x-change". when yiu hear that sound just press the trigger and you'll hear the transformation noise. the gold train is for patren x and the silver train is for lupin x. hope this helps
I'm glad I skipped this year's releases. Even as a HUGE fan of the cluster combos, this is.... just gross. I've found reasons to buy a lot of the DX stuff that people didn't like, and found ways to enjoy it - but this thing.... I can't imagine ever wanting to play around with this.
All but the combined Gunner mode doesn't look that bad. The Gunner mode though, looks idiotic. The final combined mode looks more ridiculous(stupid? moronic? needs to be thrown off a cliff?) then the Zyuohger final combined mode.
looks just as bad as Toqger's rainbow gattai form or G12 from Go-onger or Zyuohger's whale and final form or a lot of other forms from super sentai what they should have done was make a sea team for the 6th ranger and …….. oh wait that's Voltron oh thank you for the Macross nod ---- I love the SDF-1 toys
I think there is a right way and a wrong way to do mecha-transformations-device-gimmick integration. The right way is like with Kyuranger and Kyoryuger, were the they had small transformation items that could also go into the mechas. The wrong way is like with Lupinranger VS. Patranger, and to a slightly lesser extent, ToQger, were the mechas are the gimmick items. I say “to a slightly lesser extent” for ToQger since they didn’t use the entirety of each mecha as the gimmick item, only one part, so they could at least make them look more interesting. With Lupinranger VS. Patranger, the entire mechas are one gimmick item, so they become extremely limited in what they can do. So much so that the majority of them can only serve as arms. And that makes a super combined mode of several of these mechas really awkward. It just feels like these vehicles were made as gimmick items first and how they worked as a part of a mecha was just an afterthought, with the mecha stuff not really being thought about all the way through. With the gold and silver train set, it felt like the opposite, where it was just suppose to be the two X Emperor modes first, and the idea of it being a set of trains, a set of gimmick items, a transformation device, and how it combined with the other mechas were just afterthoughts. Hell, the reason I can give the TV show version of the X Changer and VS Vehicle mode a chance is because they cover up the big gaping hole on the X Train Gold, having it pull itself out of the way during the combination sequence. Why couldn’t they have something to fill in that gap for the toy? Hell, why couldn’t they have designed it so the head piece becomes the part that fills in that big gap instead of making it a big funnel piece? It would have worked so much better.
Is it just me or are the Sentai Combiner Mecha designs getting progressively worse every year?? Bring back the Victory Max Robo or Delta Galaxy Mega. Those were real combiners.
I'm the type of person who loved both G12 and Shinkenger's final combination (so much that those were my first Candy Toy Sentai mecha I bought!), but even I can admit that combination at the end was complete and utter garbage. I honestly love the arms but that's about it, I wish that sort of design had been put into a better mecha.
Wile etch combined robot is alright if not grate on its own. The final combination just doesn't work as its trying to do way to much with what it has,along with just having things in the wrong places to make the overall effect cohesive. I mean it would have been better in my opinion to use the sliver/gold rangers mecha as the base.
huh, didn't know you watched wotafa as well, though i say it differently, but i might be saying it wrong to begin with! interesting though, very interesting
I'm confused is this Power Ranger zords these suck sorry if you like them but power ranger zords used to be cool and fun now an days power ranger zords suck i cannot wait to see hasbro take on them
"Just plain old bad" i agree with you Balt but more than that the whole season was bad. I still honestly think they should of just stuck with Lupin rangers ONLY. I feel like at first it was supposed to be a theif season but the higher ups wanted both and that kinda ruined the series for me
Did you seriously give critisism to a weapon for being impractical when it comes from a show that has toy vehicles that grow bigger then houses and an interdimensional monster mafia?
![[TMT][737] DX X Emperor Slash - Gunner! DX Good Cool Kaiser VSX! Lupinranger VS Patranger!](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/d_sJGwXnBw4/mqdefault.jpg)
Looking at the combined mode it feels like they designed X Emperor and Lupinkaiser to combine and then they suddenly remembered they needed to put the Patranger's vehicles on as well so they just stuck them on.
Especially the red one. They just like stick it on top

Just like the series; lupinrangers are the main focus and the patrangers are just kinda there.
SymphonyDemon agree
I knew I wasn't gonna like the combined form when green and pink got attached to the sides of the feet, but I knew it was gonna be plain stupid when the police car got placed on top of the mech's head
You forgot the shoulders
Nobody noticed he said stepss
I love it he looks so stupid with that car on his head 🤣😂🤣
but somehow the show made the changer/gun mode look badass, the power of advertisement i guess?
Not quite the ClusterF***-Stage of G12-Formation, but getting there.
whats sad is the G-12 is still a more coherent design
Indeed. And judging just from Balts reviews, the G12 is less floppy (okay, okay, and more brickish) as well.
G-12 is awesome! A cluster-F of awesomeness. It utilizes every zord and still manage to look like a robot.
You didn’t use the change gimmick right. When the weapon go “X-Nize” you need to twist again, depending on the head the gun is pointing the other side will be the side you will change into. Also the summon gimmick you didn’t show. Simply twist twice and pull the trigger (provided that you already changed before)
I definitely miss the older mech/megazord combinations that felt cohesive instead of "slap all the parts together and hope it works" mentality.
BBmetalhead04 There is a bit of hilarity in the super combination
If you want an Ultrazord done right, take a look at the Dino Ultrazord from the original Mighty Morphing Power Rangers, it is well design, has a fantastic concept of dinosaurs combining into one big zord, it is a combination of all zord, not ALL of them to exact (It only uses Titanus's front paws and chest piece), but a good amount so that people could tell that it is an Ultrazord, and that was the VERY FIRST Ultrazord to be created.

Zyuohger is just plain trash.
@@augustbornone not really well designed
Okay, SAMURAI HA-OH is more stable than this
You need to rotate the changer twice to get the transformation sounds of the lupin x and patren x forms
This just looks bad. I can get behind the other lupin and pat ranger zords, but this one leaves much to be desired.
Good Cool Kaiser VSX is the evil version of Engine-Oh G-12.
You didn't do the summon noises with the VS Changer.
Pretty sure the knob on X Train Gold isn't meant to simulate a dial, since it's the Patranger mode, so much as simulate the front of a classic steam locomotive.
Also, you didn't properly show off the X Changer or VS Changer sounds.
And yes, Good Cool Kaiser VSX has odd proportions...in toy form. On the show, they'll probably give the suit much better proportions, because they can cheat like that, but the toy needs to make it work in real life.
Is the gunner supposed to be one of the guards in London?
Beefeater? Seems like it.
I think you missed the point on this product, its a toy, for children, sure it may not be cohesive or as robust as a high end figure or gunpla it still holds charm to how unique it is
I think it's also best to watch the show to fully appreciate the toys, the review felt very hollow otherwise, there was absolutely no need to criticise it on not looking like a gun
11:01 *THIC*
I would honestly try to get a refund for all of those figures...
idiocy gxx They are better with the VS Changer
in the show have cover for that hole..wish the toy have cover too XD
Ok, Lupinranger VS Patranger Won't Be Adapted Into Power Rangers, Because Simon Bennett And Hasbro Said It.
Sheees even the Samurai Gigazord (or the Samurai Shark Gigazord) looks better then THIS!!!
Im gonna ask but isn’t patren X Police and Lupin X Thief???
It occurs to me that the combined mode can be entirely formed with just the good striker and x trains. The individual zords all just hang off it
Hey bro,ya didn’t show the patren X and Lupin X change properly 🤔🤔🤔
I think Thunder in attack form is meant to resemble a taser.
3:38-3:46 first of all, I got my set and there was no problem with the smokestack. Second of all, the hole was unavoidable, there’s a sliding door in the show but they couldn’t make that work in toy form, they simply couldn’t.
One of the worst Mess Mechas they've ever produced
But why they do that???
Was not demonstrating the x-changers full features an intentional decision, or did you just not figure it out?
is there something else on Goodstriker that looks like connector pegholes/pegs? besides the insides of the legs?
There's not. You really are expected to just use the frail as all hell clips and pray it stays together (which it won't because the feet are too heavy for the clips)
CyberSurferXD what ever happened to Bandai's job as making connector pins act as anything else?
No idea. I'm hoping this gets fixed when Hasbro brings it over stateside, but if not, this isn't the mode I'm gonna be displaying mine in anyway.
CyberSurferXD fair
X-Changer= Kamen Rider Zeronos' ZeroGasher MK2
X-Emperor Slash= GaoHunter/PredaZord
X-Emperor Gunner= SirenBuilder
Switching between forms= Kamen Rider Zeronos' ZeroLiner

Damn and they wonder why super sentai is dying.
Damn,some of the best Super Sentai always have horrible mecha designs. Go-Busters for example.
BUT I LIKE GO BUSTERS MAINLY CUZ I HAVE A CRUSH ON YOKO WHO IS PLAYED BY MY WAIFU ARISHA
the Gunner head can be flipped over
Why did they think it was a good idea to have the combination be made up 90% of clips instead of pegs? Also, I wouldn’t be surprised if the combination was originally just the X-Trains and Good Striker, and they had to throw the Dial Fighters & Trigger Machines in last minute

Well I supposed to suggest you should get the minipla(candy toys) version
sixshotx know any good retailers?? Im in the uk btw
Ami ami. I have series 1-3 and series 4 and 5 on preorder. Just look at what you're ordering first unless you want extra unopened toys.
Andrew Shearsby try amazon
pixelman619
Nope. Amazon doesn't carry them. Hobby link Japan, ami ami, and maybe a few others but the big online names don't.
Correction: it wouldn't kick back on the side. The barrel is on the handle and you showed the sounds wrong
I bought this and i already decided to to
Only have this in slash mode
Reminds me of Shinkengers Kyoryu SamuraiHaOh. Super kibbly and looks...bad.
I'm glad I skipped this year's releases. Even as a HUGE fan of the cluster combos, this is.... just gross.
I've found reasons to buy a lot of the DX stuff that people didn't like, and found ways to enjoy it - but this thing.... I can't imagine ever wanting to play around with this.
All but the combined Gunner mode doesn't look that bad. The Gunner mode though, looks idiotic. The final combined mode looks more ridiculous(stupid? moronic? needs to be thrown off a cliff?) then the Zyuohger final combined mode.
Without the blue, yellow, green, and pink the combination mode could kinda work.
I found this set on Amazon, and I’m hoping to get it as a replacement for the individual releases, since they look like they’ve seen better days.
looks just as bad as Toqger's rainbow gattai form
or G12 from Go-onger
or Zyuohger's whale and final form
or a lot of other forms from super sentai
what they should have done was make a sea team for the 6th ranger and …….. oh wait that's Voltron
oh thank you for the Macross nod ---- I love the SDF-1 toys

Makes To-Q Rainbow, Dodeka King, and G12 look normal...

A clusterfuck super sentai combination that baltmatrix doesn't like?
What is this madness?
Wile etch combined robot is alright if not grate on its own.

I mean it would have been better in my opinion to use the sliver/gold rangers mecha as the base.
X emperor Gunner is kinda sus..............😏..........i know you also know what i mean.
The X-guy is really stupid, but I love the big one:D Wish you'd be so objective about Transformers-toys too!
huh, didn't know you watched wotafa as well, though i say it differently, but i might be saying it wrong to begin with! interesting though, very interesting
I'm confused is this Power Ranger zords these suck sorry if you like them but power ranger zords used to be cool and fun now an days power ranger zords suck i cannot wait to see hasbro take on them
I think it's cool that they designed all these toys to combine together in so many ways... but I have no idea what's happening.
Oh wow that 'ultrazord' That's like a literal clusterfuck of a Megazord. There is just no pleasing aesthetics going on
"Just plain old bad" i agree with you Balt but more than that the whole season was bad. I still honestly think they should of just stuck with Lupin rangers ONLY. I feel like at first it was supposed to be a theif season but the higher ups wanted both and that kinda ruined the series for me
so that was rely the combine mode i saw from someone else....geeez.......that's just the worst i ever saw
Did you seriously give critisism to a weapon for being impractical when it comes from a show that has toy vehicles that grow bigger then houses and an interdimensional monster mafia?
If this particular figure gets a American release, I hope the people that make it put in a few improvements... especially with the feet.
It's face looks like it's in pain. I feel sorry for it. those poor designers, and the many fans that were hoping for something better.
Don't worry about how Hasbro is going to manage to do it, worry about how likely it is they'll make something worse
uh actually you don't flip down the leg pits on pat kaiser you do however on the combo and lupin kaiser
The Blue Train is probably like a snow plow train because of that because of that hand like thing
SDF-1 FTW PEOPLE! One quick question, who else here watches Robotech?
Missed the change gimmick. Literally the main purpose of the gun form
They should have made a way to hitch X-Train Gold to X-Train Silver like in the show.
That final form looks like a kid made it in all the best ways possible.
Akarenger would be somewhat disappointed.
Man, these sentai robos just keep looking less and less cool by the season, not to mention they are even shoehorned into the shows themselves.
I’m sorry man, I’ve been a long time fan and it has nothing to do with your opinion on the toy but I hate this review
This would be great if it just didn't have the gun, or at least made the gun removable.
There won’t be a new head but a new zord named Jackpot Striker and he will be in the movie
I think this would've been better if it had a separate gun that read the trains and had all the sounds in it.
Maybe the cluster mecha will look better in the show. Then in real life?
This season has some of the worst Super Sentai Mecha designs of all time
wotafa is Japanese by the way.
Best Transformer review channel on youtube
I just hate pink I. The combined form. It has no point
Sentai doesn't even try to make a coherent super bot anymore, do they?
Ok, jokes over, What does the real combined mode look like.
He forgot to show the transformations of Lupin x and patren x
I LIKE THIS SERIES CUZ TSUKASA IS PLAYED BY A MEMBER OF AKB48
15:55 idk why the face reminds me to ratchet from transformers
I’m so tired of these shitty Sentai mecha designs....
*"STUPID"* is far too kind for this thing.
balt doesnt like this adores g12 formation
You mean if they do this series
Kids are watching y saying bad words?????
The Mecha may be crap but at least the show is awesome.
Car in the head looks very2 stupid
Kids are following you guys y saying bad words
I gotta watch the show just to see this thing try to move
What the hell is Sentai anymore. Jesus...
Silver and Fire look like the belong together
*price is right fail theme plays*
For an awesome video and the algorithm
Ah gatling c*ck megazord
