Since i've started the ball rolling with GGG, here's is the main support robots from Gaogaigar. they're the Ryu bros, twin bots Horyu & Enryu. Gaogaigar heavily relies on them & even tho they are just supporting mechs. they are equally powerful on their own.

The 2 Ryu bros to the left is Horyu (blue) & right is Enryu (red)


For a toy that is made in the 90's, they are really quite poseable & are comparable even with present day TFs.

Horyu alternate vehicle mode, a mobile crane.




Enryu alternate vehicle mode, a fire truck.






This is the gattai (combine) mode of the 2 of them. it's called Choryujin. whenever GGG needs reinforcement & additional muscle, this is the support mech that he can always rely on. they're very dependable bots'.








Choryujin size comparison with Gaigar (even after combining gaigar is almost the same height as choryujin)




last few final pics of Choryujin & The combined form of GGG (GGG is still da boss)

One happy family. GGG & the Ryu bros :cheer:




A note for those seeing them for the 1st time: these (Horyu & Enryu) robots dat i have are not the the original Takara products. they are not even made by Sonokong of korea. i'm sad to say that they are K.O.s! they are made by Happywell under the brand name Galaxy Defenders, the makers of Roadbots. for quite awhile already Happywell has been making a lot of Brave K.O.s renaming them as Galaxy Defenders.

Quality-wise they are not on par with the original versions of the toys. but for the amt of $ that we are paying, it's worth it then. they just cost a mere USD$6 each only. The height and dimensions are identical, the colors are different though, with black instead of grey and Enryu is a very dark blue instead of light blue. As far as differences go, the joint fit is kinda bad, with the arms in particular not locking in very securely in vehicle or Gattai(combine) mode. The locking parts for their Ladder/Crane attachments are also pretty badly formed, meaning they don't go on very easily and like to come off.

Overall The KOs aren't that awful, definitely not for their price. But i'm quite happy with it tho (since it's rather hard to find & better than nothing) i've totally Refurbished it. for the loose-fit joints & slight difference in colors, nothing like a nail polish or super glue can't fix & as for painting a few bottles of cheap Tamiya paints will certainly do the job. So what you guys see now is the improved version of the K.O.s. i make sure that they resemble more or less like the originals. i hope i'm not boring you guys to death with my lengthy explanations. i just had to get it out of my chest. i feel 'bad' if dun tell y'all the truth. dat's all.

Last but not least here're some clips from youtube. hope you guys dig it.
