Power Rangers Samurai Toy thread - "Go Go Samurai!"

Review of the Samurai GigaZord is up! This is the deluxe megazord scale version they put out. It's pretty bad, but oddly fun at the same time. I'm honestly torn. Check it out! :)

Heads-up guys, it looks like Big/Odd Lots stores (at least near me) have picked up leftover Battlewing zords from the first run, i.e. no removable helmet or papercraft zord.
 
After I got the super mega yellow and pink today, I thought to make this:

Jackpot! New Boston Ohio Walmart just got in the Bullzooka, and the DX Gigazord. So I finally got the Bullzooka, and passed on Gigazord since I busted my ass and wallet to get the individual zords.
 
The Minipla Shinkenoh set has been reissued in the Power Rangers Samurai toy line by Bandai Asia. Unlike previous Bandai Asia Minipla reissues, which were made in China, this kit is made in Thailand. Each box comes with the parts runners, sticker sheet and instruction sheet in English. Sadly, there's no ramune candy available.

The 4-box set retails in the Philippines for Php 999.75 (roughly US$24.00) and is available at all toy stores and major department stores under the Power Rangers section.

Finally assembled the set and I'm roughly 70% finished painting it. Compared to Gokaioh, the Minipla Shinkenoh is a bit underwhelming, as it suffers from a lot of loose joints and the head has limited mobility. And as with other Minipla kits, the stickers are cheesy. But overall, it's a fun build and it gives me a reason to pick up the Minipla DaiTenkuu set that's been sitting in my local hobby shop for years.
