On December 29, 2017, the combine plan was launched with "DX SOUL OF CHOGOKIN"! !
The monumental robot animation "COM-BATTLER V", which began airing in 1976, will challenge the further heights of toys! After the "GX-03" in 1999 and the "GX-50" in 2009, upgraded to DX SOUL OF CHOGOKIN SOUL OF CHOGOKIN with "Light!" and "Ring!" for adults. Let's take a look at the product sample of the ultimate transformable toy presented by Bandai.
In the first part published today, Introduction of the masterpiece package ~ 5 battle machines respectively. I will explain a lot of the commitment that it scatters even before coalescing.

■PACKAGEpackage

First of all, I want you to be surprised by the package size. Handle with long side About 45 × short side about 30 × height about 40 (all centimeters) in the outer box, five battle machines & inner boxes of the base are stored.

And the logo on the inner box. Yes, this item is a collection of "DX SOUL OF CHOGOKIN" and at the same time "DX Soul of Popynica". The tire parts of all five machines can be moved independently, and it is also completed as a "vehicle toy". Five Popynicas combine to form Combattler V - this is exactly item that aims to realize the dream of a boy.

For test use, 12 LR 41 batteries are included, and 2 AA batteries for pedestal are attached. In the following article, we explain it assuming that the batteries are set and the power of each machine is "ON".
(For instructions on how to insert batteries and switches - please refer to the instruction manual)

■BATTLEJETBattle Jet

First, let's start with the first "Battle Jet" on which Aoi Hyouma is on board. The color of the main wing was silver in the SOUL OF CHOGOKIN so far, but this time it is a white color scheme as set, and it is painted with pearl white.
Also the point to note in the battle jet is a size of about 70 mm in total length. This is also the result of trying the minimum size of the battery toy alloy toy, but it is about the same size as the original ancient poypinica version (excluding the power machine).

In addition to the reproduction at the time of flight / landing by landing gear on the back side, installation of magnes laser and dose brush by replacement of parts, loading of Vulcan missile. Let's raise the image in the play from here with jet spray sound to be played when pushing the tail switch.

■BATTLECRASHERBattle crusher

Next, Naniwa Bozu boarding, and at the time of coalescing, it is the Unit 2 "Battle Crusher" which becomes the chest to arm. There is a battery insertion part and a switch on the back side of the nose part. Both wings are movable, and the landing legs are designed to be stored in the main body side without replacement.

One of our commitments to this item is "the familiarity of the molding color and the paint color." For example, the yellow color of the Battle Crusher is painted on the nose and the main wing is a molded color, but it is also a point that it is almost the same yellow (this is also not 100% Y, but a special formulation developed with other CHOGOKIN). is.

■BATTLETANKBattle tank

"Battle tank" of Unit 3, which Nishikawa Daisaku operates. The base moves, the rubber crawler has a track-like mold. It seems like a tank, it's a heavy machine.

The "Butler Plow" on the front has an ver. A.N.I.M.E. that can be deployed and stored, and the claw can be opened and closed. The angle of the turret can be changed with the "380mm rapid-fire cannon" and the "anchor knuckle" can be attached, making this the most playable of the five.

■BATTLE MARINEBattle marine

Battle marine Unit 4 on which Chisun Minamihara boarding is the red ice point of the Con · Butler team. It only becomes a leg when coalescing, the part of the nose at the time of battle marine - the front of the thigh is almost a die cast cast.

Remove the shin before armor, Hizano yen undercarriage (rear wheel) is housed and rotates the plate. Inside the Y-shaped rail is cut off, and it adapts to the change of the height of the rear wheel in the landing on the battle marine and the grand dasher form. Here, as in the battle crusher, it is a place that is stuck with reproduction without replacement of parts.

By using the included carrying arm, it is possible to recreate the form in which the Battle Marine carries the Battle Tank and charges into the enemy. This ver. A.N.I.M.E. was also installed in the "GX-50", but this form and the slits on the sides of the thighs used to store the main wings are no longer present in the "DX SOUL OF CHOGOKIN", making it closer to the image in the movie.

■BATTLECRAFTBattle craft

Kitamitsu is boarded, Unit 5 "Battle Craft" which becomes both ankle of Con · Butler V. To the left and right machine connection, the magnet was used together with the fitting of the parts, aiming for respect to the original Poplinica version and a comfortable detachable feeling.

The ver. A.N.I.M.E. can be stored by sliding the knob on the back. Also, just like in the movie, the cockpits on both the left and right sides have been recreated.

■STANDStand

Depending on the attached pedestals and struts, you can display with the image of each battle machine flying at the top with a battle jet. When pedestal "1" "2" "3" is pushed
· Let's Combine! (When departing from Minamihara Connection)
· Con · Butler Great Battle Battle (when united)
· Con · Butler V's Theme (Theme Song / TV Size)
Is reproduced. It is a specification that pushes in order according to the coalescing sequence to Con · Buttra V. Even if you play numerous pieces of masterpieces in this form, it is a very high-pitched scene. I would like you to try it.

When setting a loopette on the pedestal, Mr. Nozawa Masako's "Combine Okkee!", Yuji Mitsuya and other battle teams are ringing! The nozzle of the battle crusher is stored, and the chest nose is deformed rearward. The battle tank raises the crawler part, and the battle marine keeps both feet points to the center.

Battle Jet to Battle Crusher, and Battle Tank, Battle Marine, Battle Craft Combined! When each machine is united, the coalesced sounds.

Con · Butler V is the first coalesced robot designed on the premise of three-dimensionalization. At the same time that it had a great influence on the later robot animation, there was also a place where a little peculiarity was required for coalescence with a pioneer as a pioneer (original god Poppinica version "Combine Box" Rubber is attached).

However, this DX SOUL OF CHOGOKIN is different. If you finish each machine transformation above, you can combine very intuitively. openly and boldly"Union! Gashiiin !!"And go home and play with children. Each battle machine feels comfortable joint, built-in coalescence, and BGM flowing from the base...... Something on my mind's breasts, it can not be described in this review!

Shoulder, thigh, shoulder wing parts are stored, and the crawler part of the back is folded. Shrinking the elbowed elbow will expose the wrist portion that was the nozzle at the time of the battle crusher. Let's replace it with the attached fist part separately here.

The remainder is the deformation of the battlejet which becomes the head.
Invincible super electromagnetic robot, we will have time to sortie out at last! !
