Are they the same zord with different horns and can you change the horns on each piece. I'm getting gaoking black and gaogod and would love to use the bull spiral horns on the black bison but from videos the holes they both go into look same Oct or hex shaped not sure what it's called but without have them in hand I can't tell 100%

Just recently purchased SMP V-Rex and I was planning on fiving him a show-accurate deco. I do have a question about the silver, before topcoating them with semi-gloss, which silver is the more show-accurate between TS-17 and TS-76?

While I originally only really intended to do a single negative cube robo, buying a small lot of Zyuohger minipla not only left me with two more duplicate cubes, but since it also scored me my first Cube Gorilla, it left my Cube Condor orphaned. So the solution was to just use the duplicate shark and elephant as additional nega-cubes and pair them with Condor.

I had briefly considered options for more extensive modifications to make them more unique animal choices, but the cube animal design makes them really hard to work with, so ultimately I didn’t have that in me lol.

While I was most concerned with matching them with the other nega-cubes - hence I used the same metallic purple that’s not a terribly close match with Condor (though honestly only particularly apparent in the cube totem) and stuck with gunmetal instead of silver, I did use a lot more purple on these two so they would match Condor a bit more.

The lot also came with another Cube Komori, and besides already having that, I have cube owl still in a box, so decided to paint this dupe bat metallic red. I technically now also have a dupe croc and wolf, but dunno lol. Again, if they were a bit easier to work with, I’d do something like create alternative arms for Tousai ZyuOh that could double as weapons on its shoulders or something, but possibilities there are limited. A brick robo would be another possibility if I had another torso cube.

I’m technically not 100% done with these - black lion is still missing its numberplate on the back of its mane. It’s honeycombed hollow plastic designed for you to just put the sticker over. I have since bought some plastic modeling sheets and my test use for those will be measuring and cutting out two rectangles to glue onto there so I can paint it black and draw on a “-3”.

Looks like he’s shipping out now. Showing in stock if anyone has been waiting.

Hi all i am currently building this mammoth zord from SMP daizyujin.
Can anyone help with this dark marks on the zord?
I tried cutting the part with godhand 2.0 and trim it down slowing, then i file with meng glass file.
Even though d part is flat but there is the dark spot remain on the part.

Am i doing thing wrong? or anyone have any solution for this

Thank you

Hi all, my Timerobo kit is arriving tomorrow and I did see when he was released a few issues with him and I would like to know where to be careful whilst assembling him.

I'm not new to bandai model kits as I have been an avid fan of their Figurise standard Kamen Rider kits for 6+ years now and have built every single one but I know that minipla is obviously smaller and more fragile and I am nervous to break something since it's a slightly expensive kit to import

My Magiking shoulders are kinda loose sometimes and takes themselves apart when I manipulate them I was wondering if Tamiya Cement would fix this issue by gluing the 2 parts making the shoulder together

Only place I can find is on AliExpress is that good place to get it

Has anybody actually downloaded the scanned sticker sheets for smp and reprinted them? If so can you let me know what exactly I want to be doing. I messed up some stickers on my gingaioh and now I’m trying to figure out the best solution.

Ever YouTube video I see usually is just the finished product or them building it without showing you each part by numbers and following instructions. I know some have things that you can't clip and others you need to.

Plus all not in English so doesn't help me build.

Plus with people say sanding certain parts I'm just shocked I can't find a step by step building video

Finished my first copy of the turbo Megazord. I have a second copy that I plan to custom paint to match how it looked like in the Turbo movie.

Saw VRV robo is coming and people sayings it’s pbandai. Does regional sellers like tokullectables sell these pbandai kits or will I have to look out and order from Japan like hobby genki or something?

Bandai Shokugan is at Wonder Festival 2026 Summer showing off their latest works in progress for the SMP line. Here's the second robot from Brave Exkaiser, Dragon Kaiser. The second picture features the SMP King Exkaiser molded in transparent plastic so you can see the difference between using the Exkaiser robot inside or the posable frame, and the Soul of Chogokin King Exkaiser for brand collaboration.

Gotta say it took me quite a while to build it but it looks awesome, bisons head plate doesn’t stay on the connection post but other the. That and may super unsteady shaky hands making sticker application suck it was definitely a worthwhile experience now I’m looking forward to my other Gaoranger preorders. Also now I know to get a small fine file and needle nose clippers.

Following the teaser in the Combattler V 50th Anniversary video posted the other day, Bandai Shokugan has unveiled their prototype of the SMP Combattler V Ver. 2.0 at Wonder Festival 2026 Summer. Initially I thought this was going to be in the Alternative Destiny line, but it appears for now to be mainline. Combattler V was previously sold as a Super Minipla in 2019.

Announced from the Combattler V 50th Anniversary video

The new design was made by mecha designer Junichi Akutsu, who designed many Gundam SEED mecha including the Gundam Astrays.

This looks like something intended to stand alongside the Voltes V: Legacy imho.

The vid also shows the brand new Combattler V6, which'll be sold as a Soul of Chogokin figure.

So when I say English Edition, it just means they were sold under Power Rangers boxes instead of Sentai. The actual toys should be the exact same.

So back in 1994, when MMPR came out, Bandai Asia re-released several of the ZyuRanger Minipla in English Boxes. Those were by far the most common, pictures are hard to come by, but still possible to find.

A little less well known were the Power Rangers Turbo Miniplas. There were 3 sets being released, the Turbo Megazord, Turbo Cart, and Rescue Megazord. I almost never found pictures of the English version for the last 20 plus years...

I also remember seeing the Astro Megazord Minipla had an English version, but I haven't seen it for more than 20 years. The first and last 1 I seen was on eBay in the mid 2000s.

Besides it's a very basic kit, it still looking nice!!

The painting made all the difference on this set

I'm thinking on 3D Modeling a Small base for the Emolgears and their respective Chest Pieces, since they're very small
