I saw it in Gundam.

I’ve never watched the anime, but I bet the three-way fusion and six transformations of Alvegas must be a real pain in terms of animation.

>>2

I feel like there was hardly anything other than the main form.

>>13

I knew it would turn out like this…

>>2

In the first place, it doesn’t really look that different…

Among the ones that are popular, Dailagar has a distinctly difficult appearance to draw.

It’s obvious, but there are lines for 15 bodies.

>>17

Building model kits is so exhausting with the painting that I’ve left them in a partially assembled state…

I don’t understand Rika-chan from Ryotsu…

A stray bullet flies near Turbo Robo during the car shoemaking segment.

I feel like helicopter arms are somewhat acceptable, or rather, I feel like I’ve seen something like that.

>>6

I would rather like to see the Toyota robot.

Licca-chan might understand, but it would be impossible for friends.

It seems that they would study in a heartbeat if it turned out to be profitable.

It might just be my imagination, but I have a feeling that I’ve seen an episode where Ryo-san gives a detailed explanation about Licca-chan dolls…

If it were Ryotsu-sensei, he probably would have already studied Licca-chan during his time as a shoujo manga artist.

There was a story in Kochikame about someone looking for Rarika-chan who approached a woman who might have once owned a doll, saying they wouldn’t throw it away, and mentioned that it was easier to search because they were the police.

The Combattler design isn’t really that good…

I like designs in the series, like Voltus.

There’s a Gundam that looks like Combattler, but it’s really uncool, right?

Toyota robots are nice!

There was something like the Great Gunbarger, which you couldn’t combine unless you figured out how to do it on your own…

Ryo-san doesn’t really know some genres at all, but if there’s money to be made, he’ll learn and quickly reach a professional level.

I feel that the helicopters in combined robots are mostly arms.

Or the front and back of the torso.

I feel like there was a yakuza boss who was a fan of Rika-chan in the story.

>>23

Gosho Kawahara Kingoro no Suke Saemon Taro!

The one that made arm helicopters cool was the one from Hurricane Ranger.

It’s nostalgic to think that I didn’t want to just be in charge of the legs while combining.

It seems like the people at the manufacturer are having a really hard time making it so that it can properly combine and transform.

The rubber belt of Combattler was a desperate measure.

The designer still decorates their desk with it as a reminder of their greatest failure in life.

>>27

Indeed, it is a flaw in the toy that a fixed belt needs to be added to something that was originally designed to combine using magnetic force.

Even if I say the ear shape is distinctive, they wouldn’t understand when they say they don’t know about combined robots.

About 30% of the image seems to be designed by Emperor Murakami.

Was Combattler also a magnetic combination?

Gakkiin has become unable to unite again after playing in the sandbox.

It’s questionable that a bombing robot like Groiser is always involved in dogfights.

Well, it’s a knuckle anime…

Dairaga asks, “Do you think kids want to be the pilots of ankle machines!?”

I strangely remember that review video.

It is said that the generation that played Combattler is afraid that the Switch 2’s controllers will use a magnetic combination method.

I like how Big Bullfog effectively utilizes its helicopter weapon on its arm.

>>35

Bolfog completely ignores size proportions when combining, just like in the Showa era…

>>38

The entire Hero Robot series has that kind of thing going on…

>>38

Since the hero robot is originally based on TF grammar, it’s common for the size to change during transformation…

>>35

GaoGaiGar often makes effective use of its vehicle mode functions, doesn’t it?

In the hero series, I only see something like Da-Garn.

I completely understand the disappointment of car shoes.

With a premium price, it becomes possible to distinguish Rika-chan, that’s Ryō-san.

The DX Dairugger lacks stability when standing because the wheels of the leg vehicle do not rotate properly.

My neighbor, who is in the same grade, could only get the Dyrauger Ricklager.

Even if they combine, it seems tough for the members in the cockpit to stay in the legs.

>>42

Isn’t it easier than having your arms swung around?

Sometimes I get hit with rocket punches.

>>44

Was Gravion like that?

>>43

It’s important to combine it with human intellect, as indicated by the insert song.

It’s more in the context of Tetsujin 28-go than combining robots…

>>43

Well, if you say that, it also applies to Gundam which is part of that lineage.

>>85

Gundam is essential to have a core fighter due to its shape, so it makes sense to treat it as a combined robot.

Mazinger Z is divided into Mazinger Z and Pilder, so it feels a bit different from that.

At that time, Voltus was considered to have a less interesting design.

>>46

It may be stylish, but if I say there’s nothing particularly standout in the design, I still feel that way now.

It was an era when you wouldn’t get in trouble for using the product name and design exactly as they are…

The problems with the leg mechanism have been discussed for a long time.

“In the story, ‘a drill comes out from the foot for a special kick’ and ‘high-speed movement with tire feet.'”

It was common for little gimmicks like that to be incorporated.

Is Voltes the junior?

There is often talk about the yellow ranger or Precure being in an unpopular position.

>>53

There are quite a few expressions like that, not just in this instance…

>>54

This time, while letting Reiko speak, there are other stories such as a high school girl who describes the Bottoms’ landing posture transformation as “nonsensical,” and Ryo-tsu himself continues to struggle until he buys it, but once he does, he immediately loses interest in the Densuke doll. Akimoto tends to include quite a few gags to avoid being too niche for the enthusiasts.

In such cases, it will likely be the role of a young woman who has no interest in that genre, rather than Reiko.

Speaking of which, Gundam can be traced back to the lineage of combining robots.

TF→The flow of Macross really feels like “military knowledge” and has a certain flavor to it.

Combattler is properly combined again a little later, so I brought it back out.

The appearance has become even closer to what it is in the play.

It seems that the Combattler toys sold like crazy.

The ability to merge and become a robot is popular.

>>60

The Getter, which is supposed to be the original combination robot, was like that.

It seems that a Dialgar toy was released in 2020.

The legs are really just as they are, but I thought the shoulder cut was well arranged.

Considering that 15 bodies combined, the overall design of Dairugger is quite good.

“My legs are seriously like a car.”

It’s not just Daira Ga, but the overwhelming number of lines in 80s robots really gives a sense of the era.

Rezarion has an amazing design too.

>>53

The difference in how “Oishinbo” is criticized.

Is there a total of 15 pilots in the 15 combination?

Dairager is fundamentally a final weapon that, when fused with 15 bodies, is like a guarantee to win, transcending factions.

Usually, it becomes a huge vehicle in factions.

There are so many robot toys that have become confusing, not just in terms of combining but even just transforming.

Even the edges of Dairugger’s shoulders can be used as weapons…

When this person doesn’t show understanding during the persuasion or doesn’t appreciate expensive clothes, it’s just like Nakagawa’s analogy about cars, right? It’s impressive how he manages to convince others and handle situations like Ryosuke.

I didn’t know Daimidaler was combined like that.

“Is that corner a Dunbine…? It’s different from the Beep Fighter…”

“It was a rhinoceros beetle.”

Was it this episode?

>>74

“Only showing the head of the Zaku and saying ‘The correct answer is a Gelgoog with the head of a Zaku’ is probably in this episode too?”

It says what to do if you lose the instruction manual… but once you’ve transformed and combined it once, don’t you remember the general steps?

I remember Director Nagahama complaining about the design of Voltus.

There are surprisingly few fully transformable Gundams.

Well, it’s obvious because it’s a real robot.

It seems we live in an era where if it’s not a combining robot, it’s not a robot at all.

Of course, Gundam also has unnecessary combination practice scenes.

Gundam is not really a real robot, and there was no such distinction in that era.

It’s a G mech, a huge Core Fighter. Things that feel like a toy happen on the spot, that’s what Gundam is all about…

The initial design of Combattler, released by Popy, was really ugly, so Yoshikazu Yasuhiko almost completely refined it.

Thanks to that, it became very popular, but Poppy had to redo all the molds and went through a lot of trouble.

So instead of becoming a sponsor during Voltes, I insisted on the condition that they absolutely do not change the design!

The design of Voltes is somewhat outdated compared to ConV, and that’s why.

The puppet is so lifelike that it feels really real.

The Gundam repetitively undergoes fusion training to the point of being persistent.

If I were to ask if it was helpful, maybe just during the escape?

As a practical matter, how do you remove adhering iron sand?

>>89

Peel off the masking tape, gum, and kneaded eraser when the wood glue is thinly applied and still slightly wet.

Have you ever thought about the feelings of the one riding there? It was the guy in charge of the ZZ Gundam’s rifle who was getting tossed around… There was a discussion about how it wasn’t necessary to have that area unmanned when combining, or to not make it part of the combined mech.

Char also merges and transforms… Is there still a hidden power in Gundam…?! It’s like he’s getting scared, or being told by the sponsor to make a merger appeal, which leads to a blatant practice segment. Gundam is also just a toy anime, after all.

Instead, the G-Mecha, which was an unnecessary element by the time of the theatrical version, disappeared.

Yoshikazu Yasuhiko looked at the design of Raideen.

I hope the pointed parts are not too many so that the children don’t get hurt while playing with the toys… I have that kind of kindness in me.

Isn’t it enough that you know Harumi-chan and Izumi-chan from the first, second, and third generations?

I’m still wondering what the transformation of the Bolt Cruiser is like…

It’s a story that can be understood at a glance if it’s about toy replacement.

I remember that transforming Transformers was quite a challenge when I was a kid.

The large gold DS Gundam that I was bought when I was small was a bit complicated because it could turn into a dragon and had a big form.

Was the combined robot sold as separate pieces?

>>99

While Combutra is sold as a set, isn’t it usually the case that the Sentai robots are sold individually?

I still long for the toy that allows you to easily assemble and play with Gundam + G Armor.

A reissue… I guess there’s no helping it.

A combined Dunkouga with a hat on Big Moss and wearing shoes…

Well, over there they have the advantage of transforming from vehicle to beast mode alone.

It’s weird to say that Combattler is the original combined robot.

It’s Getter Robo, right?

>>103

Say that after you can transform and combine!!

>>103

Isn’t the Combattler the original combined gimmick toy robot?

Before that, there was Gingaizer, but Supernatural Smash is quite tough.

Of course, Mr. Akimoto definitely knows Getter Robo.

It means that it’s the original combining robot that released toys that can properly combine…
