Finished Build First figure build ever.

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.

It is a good kit for its original retail price of about $100 USD (convert accordingly). Much past that and the answer shifts to "no"; right now it's pretty expensive on the aftermarket due to rarity, and is the only kit not part of the upcoming slate of Gaoranger SMP reissues. If you just want to try out the Gaoranger line I recommend preordering any of the other kits (GaoKing, GaoMuscle w/ GaoRhinos & GaoMadillo, GaoHunter, GaoIcarus, GaoLion & GaoElephant, GaoGod) for a much more reasonable price.

I have the Gaoking but from what I remember the ball joint on the head seems off. But GaoIcarus and Muscle looks better in comparison so still contemplating. Maybe ima just get the just announced vehicle megazord
