Editor's Review] Don't miss out on the flashy action and free and flexible combinations! We played around with "Don Momotaro Alter" & "Tokkyujar Alter" from Change Heroes! Don Brothers" and "Tokkyujar Alter"!

From the 46th Super Sentai series "Goutarou Sentai Don Brothers," which has finally started airing, the transformable robot "Don Momotaro Alter" has already been commercialized in the "Change Heroes" figure series! The Akiba Research Institute editorial department also had a chance to play with it!

Of course, everyone has already checked out "Goutarou Sentai Don Brothers" (......), which started airing on March 6, right?

It's been a week since "Kikai Sentai ZENKAIJAR," an entertainment epic with laughter, tears, and bloodshed that has entertained us for a year, came to a grand conclusion. ...... This work, which appeared in front of viewers who are plagued by Zenkairos, has a mysterious content that is different from the previous Super Sentai works, and it is a shocking experience as if you were hit in the brain with a "Gattatsu! I am sure that I am not the only one who was struck by the film's mysterious content, as if he had been hit in the brain with a "Gattatsu!

The eccentric characters, the enemy side that is not monolithic, the overall impression of lightness, and the serious or heavy setting and storyline that are hidden here and there. ......

Oh ....... This is truly the work of producer Shinichiro Shirakura and writer Toshiki Inoue!

Personally, it reminded me of the first time I watched "Masked Rider Cougar" and "Masked Rider Agito", the confusion of "What on earth am I being shown ......" and the excitement of "But I can't take my eyes off it! But I can't take my eyes off it!

I wonder what kind of renaissance this film will bring to the Super Sentai series. ...... I am very curious. From the "Don Brothers," the transformable robot "Don Momotaro Alter" has appeared in the "Change Heroes" figure series.

The "Change Heroes" coloring figure series, which started with the previous "Kikai Sentai ZENKAIJAR," is a very playable series that can be played with right out of the box, yet can still perform action and transformation.

Let's play with them right away!

Let's start with the box.

This time we got the "Don Momotaro Alter" and "Tokkyujar Alter" packages. There is also a package that includes both products.

First, let's take out the Donmotaro Alter.

Change Heroes Donmotaro Alter

Very good proportions. The Momotaro element of the motif and the Don Brothers' trademark sunglasses are a perfect match. His large feet give him a somewhat mischievous boyish look.

A weapon, a sword, can be mounted on the back.

Next, let's take a look at the range of motion.

The head can only be rotated from side to side due to the chin interfering with the collar.

The arms can point straight up. The arms can be raised 90 degrees to the side.

It can be bent about 90° at the elbow. The arms are quite movable.

The waist is connected to an axis and can rotate 360°.

Legs can be opened almost 180° to the front, back, left, and right.

Due to the deformation gimmick, the figure can even sit upright.

Kneeling is also possible! You can recreate a variety of situations. The green toe parts are ball-jointed.

The knee part can also be rotated.

Let's try posing her next!

Ready stance!

High kick!

She can also stand on one leg.

Holding a sword, she is ready for battle!

Yaaaaaah!" She is ready to slash at her enemies.

Taking advantage of her excellent mobility, she can also be posed like this. Although there are still many unknowns about what kind of character Don Momotaro is, this confident pose seems to suit him.

This product does not stop there.

It can also transform into the Peach form without any adjustments! So, let's take a look at the transformation.

First, remove the sword from the back and the parts to mount it.

Then move the shoulder parts, hide the face, and point the arms to the waist.

Then fold the legs ......

Peach form is completed!

Peach from all angles!

Change Heroes Tokkyujar Alter

Don Momotaro Alter" has a lot of play value on its own, but you can also enjoy combining it with "Alter," which is based on the mechanics of past Super Sentai figures.

So let's check out the "TOKKYUJAR Alter" released at the same time as the "DONMOMOTARO Alter.

As the name suggests, the "Tokkyujar Alter" is based on the "Red Lasher" that appeared in "Ressha Sentai Tokkyujar.

It also comes with the Abataro gear of Tokkyujar.

The first car is here.

The design is a direct reproduction of the Red Lesher.

There is a peach mark on the back of the car.

Rollers are set on the lower part of the car body, so that you can roll the car around.

Next is the second car.

The design is reminiscent of a railroad crossing.

By inserting the pin at the rear of the first car into the top of the second car, the cars can be connected.

Now, let's combine it with the Don Momotaro Alter!

First, disassemble the Tokkyujar Alter.

Replace the second left and right arms with the arms of the Donmotaro Alter.

Then, rotate the lower body 180° and bend the legs.

The figure is made to sit down with a flattened waist.

Then pull out the base of the first car, which is divided into front and back. ......

Insert the pin into the hole on the back side of the thigh part of the Don Mottaro Alter.

Then, set the Abataro gear of Tokkyujar on the back!

Attach the tips of the first two eyes to the chest and ......

Open both arms wide, and the "Don'tkkyu Momotaro Alter" is complete!

It has a massive visual reminiscent of a tank. It looks like it can run over any kind of rough terrain!

The back is like this.

It seems that Alter will appear in the future along with the Avatarou Gear from past generations of the squadron, and it will combine into various forms.

Another attraction of Change Heroes is that it can be freely reconfigured in addition to the official merged form.

The shaft diameter of the pins and the size of the bearing holes of each part are standardized, so you can attach various parts to various places.

You can even try making your own original Don't-Tokkyu-Motaro Alter like this.

The power of Tokkyujar gives it a boost of horsepower in melee combat mode! It's a target-oriented fantasy setting. Imagination!

You can even combine it with the Kikainoids (ZENKAI JURAN, ZENKAI GAOON, ZENKAI MAGINE, and ZENKAI BROWN) from Change Heroes "Kikai Sentai ZENKAIJAR" beyond the boundaries of the series!

The ways to have fun are endless! Don Motaro Alter" and its series of "Change Heroes" will continue to be a focus of attention in the future!
