Kyoryuzin Western & Kung Fu Combo Full Action Ver. Set

I would like it if they did the other main mechs from Kyoryuger in this style. I understand why they did these and are going to do Tobaspino, since they are mostly remolds. Pteragordon and Bragigas do have alternate color schemes they could do (the ones that appeared in Dino Force Brave) which would also mean we get Full Action versions of Brave Kyoryujin (which I would love; it's my favorite color scheme of any Sentai mech), but Plesuon only has the one color scheme. I suppose that if these do very well we might get them? But we probably won't.

Now, I do like these guys, but they are much simpler versions of the original DXs from 2013. They work well for what they're supposed to do, be small and lightweight versions to work with a posable Kyoryujin. I do wish the arms folded in a bit more, I do wish Zakutor and Parasagun's weapons were more obvious, but apart from that? Yeah, they're cute. I actually prefer these versions of Ankydon and Bunpachy. Ankydon's old hammer was originally held together by a small c-clip so it had a tendency to break and this one is a solid piece, and the real chain on Bunpacky feels better than the locked one. It's a give-and-take.

Kyoryuger Week Day 2 - Western Set

Even if the Megazord doesn’t require it, there are five Rangers in this series. I do like that the lack of a Yellow Ranger makes it so none of the combinations follow the normal color schemes. Funnily enough, every dino has yellow on it, though. I wonder if the reason they didn’t do a Yellow Ranger is because they wanted to use yellow as an accent color, rather than the “feminine yellow” excuse they gave when the series was first airing?

The Good: While they have the same basic shape to their bodies, Parasagun and Zakutor do a lot to be different. Bipedal animal, especially ones that don’t use their tails as a tripod, are pretty uncommon Sentai bots (mainly because humans are the only currently living exclusively bipedal animal), and they do it pretty well here. I wish there were more than two sets of legs on the five versions of this mold, but it’s still neat. The claw and gun also look pretty cool.

The Bad: While there are a few extra motions to it, their transformation is pretty much the same as with Stegotchi and Dricera.

New Papercraft has been published on PaperCraftSquare: Link: http://www.papercraftsquare.com/zyuden-sentai-kyoryuger-zyudenryu-zakutor-free-papercraft-download.html Paper Craft Name: Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger - Zyudenryu Zakutor Free Papercraft Download Description:

This papercraft is Zyudenryu Zakutor (#4), the Velociraptor Zyudenryu who became Kyoryu Green's partner, based on the anime Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger, this papercraft is created by Vayashi.

A Zyudenryu, Zakutor was a Velociraptor that agreed to be modified to battle the Deboss Army in ancient times. Prior to the forming of the team Kyoryugers, it had challenged and been beaten by Souji Rippukan and had become his partner.

Souji once believed that he had just been using Zakutor to get back at his father, somehow. However, Amy Yuuzuki believes that Zakutor knew better than that, and had chosen him for more noble reasons.

Zakutor replaces Dricera for the left arm in Kyoryuzin's formations. This Zyudenryu normally resides in a bamboo thicket in Japan until summoned. When assuming Battle Mode, Zakutor's tail splits to form three blades. When combined with a Zyuden Giant, Zakutor's tail is then called the Zakutor Sword. [Source: wikia]
