Bandai Super Robot Chogokin SRC Dekaranger Robo Review

Dekaranger Robo comes from the Super Sentai series, Dekaranger. Dekarangers are space police who are responsible for capturing alien criminals and terrorists who come to take over the earth. Dekaranger Robo is also the third release of Super Sentai robots under the SRC series.
In my opinion, this is the best Super Sentai robot released under the SRC line till date. For those of you who own or seen the original DX Dekaranger Robo toy, you will know that it is quite a plump looking robot. Even in the TV series, Dekaranger Robo does not look really slim.
However, the designers of Bandai have really given Dekaranger Robo a big makeover, giving him a very slim and fit look, carrying an aura of awesomeness and with it, a sense of justice.
In terms of articulation, Dekaranger Robo has about 33 points of articulation and he has fabulous posability. Not only that, he comes with a wide array of weapons such as the police badge and robo handcuffs. Look at how Dekaranger Robo charges out of the picture!
Dekaranger Robo also comes with his trademark robo pistol. Look at him prep himself to engage the incoming invaders!

Dekaranger Robo also comes with effect parts to simulate the blast from his pistol. Not only that, the effect part also has a discharged bullet cartridge, bringing a lot more life and realism to the figure when you put it on display.
The next impressive weapon is none other that the Dekaranger Robo sword. With a wide range of motion, given by his great articulation, Dekaranger Robo is able to create a very impressive sword slashing pose.
To entice collectors to get both Dekaranger Robo and Gokaioh, Bandai has included the Patstriker and its effect parts with Dekaranger Robo.
 What do we use these parts for? Well, they can be taken apart and added on to Gokaioh, just like how he appears on TV when he utilizes the powers of Dekarangers.
Overall, this is the best Super Sentai SRC till date and I highly recommend Dekaranger Robo. There are so many impressive poses that can be create with him that I want to get a few more myself to pose and display him in all those various action poses.

A picture speaks a thousand words but a video speaks a million words. Check out my Youtube video on Dekaranger Robo.
