Normally, the last Mecha in a Sentai series is a larger "Carrier"-style design which sacrifices posing and/or detail for electronic gimmicks. Because of this, I rarely pick up the Carrier Mecha because I don't feel they add enough to the series (or because I don't want to put up the extra cost).
I was fully prepared to skip the last Mecha from Shinkenger- named MogyuDaiOh- but I grabbed him thanks to an excellent sale at Amazon Japan (which is still ongoing, by the way!)
The last Origami to join the Shinkenger's arsenal is Ushi, an ox towing an armored cart. Its a HUGE Ox too; i'm going to struggle finding a way to shelf this set.
Ushi can tow Shinken-Oh into battle, like any worthwhile Carrier.
Or you could use the battery-operated transformation gimmick and change Ushi into his battle form:
MogyuDaiOh! A peerless fighter armed with the Bull Great Revolving Cannon. Its a very good looking brick; arms can move but that's about it.
Just to give a sense of scale here:
So yes- Mogyu's a lot of bull.
After an absurdly detailed combination sequence which I couldn't even begin to document photographically with my crappy camera we are graced with:
SAMURAI HA OH! The ultimate fusion of all eleven primary Origami. "Ha Oh" apparently translates to "Military King" and is referred to in the series as the highest honor a Samurai can obtain.
I said a year or so ago that it is impossible to describe Engine-Oh G12 without using the word "Cluster." THIS big guy could almost certainly give G12 a run for its money.
The level of connectivity is absurd, and its all supported by Ushi's mobile gimmick- letting Samurai HaOh roll into battle!
I paid about $65 for MogyuDaiOh; at that price I don't regret it. I can only recommend the full price if you REALLY love Shinkenger & want the final combo; Mogyu looks great but on his own can't do much.
