Bandai Soul of Chogokin GX-05 Daiku Maryu Gaiking Review

I am back everyone! Here's my review for an old chogokin, GX-05 Gaiku Maryu Gaiking. Thanks for patiently waiting. I'll try to find more gokins and nice toys to do reviews on in the meantime. =)

@oshuabailey38j Thank you. I am honored. =)

Also, Popy made a DX Daiku Maryu figure (no Gaiking, folks) and a similarly sized DX transforming Gaiking which spawned the GX-05 and GX-27.

@nightslash3535 The Popy versions were made completely of plastic right? I think I saw some pictures some time ago.

Trust me, I know more about vintage Popy Chogokins than you are. The Popy Chogokins are so popular, it wasn't cancelled when it returned to it's parent company, Bandai.

@nightslash3535 Spoken like a true blue collector. I am not into the popy chogokins and hence unfamiliar with them. I'm more into the new school chogokins. =)

I love GX-05. Daiku Maryu has the diecast heft that the old vintage gokins had.

@OptimusPrimeSG Popy plastics are brittle, they feel cheap, almost bootleg cheap. But given that their toys are mostly metal, I have no problems with them.

The DX Daiku Maryu and Gaiking is a vintage Chogokin, so it's metal.
