Your idea already exists. Check Brave Saga 1 & 2.

Anyways. Finally. Another grail has been obtained. The first Brave villain toy to be made and 1 of 2 that is an original mold. Space Pirates Geister's boss Dinogeist!

Well the box is very nice. Can clearly see Dinogeist in all his glory and the box art is very good. As per the usual. Also PRECIOUS FOAM inner tray! YESSSSS!



Onto the toy itself. What can I say? The colours scheme works. The black makes for a good villain colour. You can almost make out his dino mode's head but its hidden by those chest plates. So basically hiding in plain sight. Clever. Overall his articulation is pretty nice for an old toy. He has foward motion on his shoulders and elbows, his head turn and his hips and knees also move (mainly for the transformations).



His two shiny katanas can be holstered on his back. I like it when these things give you a place to hold weapons in the robot mode.



He also comes with a shield that holds the Geister's emblem on it. Nice.



Pressing the buttons on the outside of the legs makes these two cannons flip up. I think he's the only Brave toy to have a spring loaded cannon that flips up. Nice.



Of course what would a Brave villain be without the ability to HOLD his weapons. His twin katanas are ready to fight off any do gooders.



They can even be combined into a two sided Katana!



In the anime he is most often seen in this form. Sitting on a throne ordering his minions to do his dirty work. His T-rex-like mode. Its a good transformation though he now has a giant back pack. He has about the same amount of articulation as his robot mode. Shoulders and elbows,hips (his knees dont move), and his neck and head. His shield is now used as his chest. Unfortunately his swords cant be stored in his alt forms.



Remember those knee cannons?



Lastly you've got his jet fighter mode. Really reminds me of RoTF Jetfire.Yes hes got his legs on his back but they're more like thrusters. Big thrusters. Its a pretty cool looking form I must say.



If you thought the back of this mode has nothing to support it...



Now what villain doesnt have his own hero to fight?



I thought MP Great Exkaiser towered over him but actually it looks alright.









And finally a comparison between the two original mold Brave villains. Clearly Draias was supposed to one-up Dinogeist but just ends up very weak. I prefer Dinogeist by far.







Dinogeist is a very cool triple changer. One toy they should've reissued when they reissued King Exkaiser.
