There is a scene in the movie where the shovel is replaced by a drill.

If you use the special pedestal, you can enjoy the display in a floating state. However, please note that it may be dangerous to keep the display floating for a long time, as the parts may be overloaded.

The figure can also hold the Lion Sword that came with the Fire Dag-On.

Replacement wrists are also included for holding the Lion Sword. You can firmly hold the lion sword.

This is the Infinity Cannon that comes with the Power Dag-On. Although the transformation to Gunkid is omitted, it is a rather large and luxurious accessory.

It is equipped on the Power Dug-On with a die-cast arm.

The foregrip can slide as in the play.

Shovel up and ready for recoil. ......

Target mark, set on!

FIRE!!!"

We also let him hold the Lio Sword. The power dug-on is also very powerful and looks good.

The Infinity Cannon can also be equipped on the Fire Dag-On. Equipped with joint parts in the waist as in the play.

Connect to the waist using a die-cast connecting arm.

Attachment for connection to the prop is used to support the infinity cannon.

Fire!

The infinity cannon is quite massive, so it is a bit difficult to pose it, but its size makes it very satisfying.

Incidentally, it can also be attached to the left side of the waist.

Next is the long-awaited super flame combination!

Super Flame Combination Super Fire Dag-On is completed!

Super Fire Combination!

It is possible to reproduce that super impressive state of carrying a fire jumbo on its back!

However!　Both the Fire Jumbo and the Power Dag-On are quite heavy, so be sure to use a prop to hold them firmly in place.

The Fire Jumbo can be transformed from this state, just as it was in the movie.

The scene of the super fire-jumbo combining was very impressive in the movie.

The Fire Jumbo, which was combined on the back of the Power Dug-On, is transformed as it is, and the Fire Dug-On and the two Power Dug-On robots become back-to-back. Chest fever!

The parts here are disassembled from the Power Dug-On and Fire Dug-On.

The Fire Rescue and Fire Ladder are stored inside the legs of the Fire Dug-On.

The Power Dag-On's legs transform into parts that merge into the Fire Dag-On's foot.

Insert the joints into the Fire Dag-On's foot soles.

The so-called "Great Combination" of the heroic robots is amazing, isn't it? Obviously, a large block is just added to the sole of the foot, but it becomes so powerful and makes it a truly "Great" image.

Both arms of Power Dag-On are combined to form the forearms.

Connect to the upper arm of the Fire Dag-On.

Remove the Dag-Fire from the Power Dag-On and merge the Fire Stratos into the Fire Dag-On. Although the merging can be done without replacing it, it is important to have the spirit of trying to recreate the setting.

The rear part of the Fire Jumbo's fuselage is transformed into a compact form. The head of the Power Dug-On is tilted forward to hide the face.

Tilt down the transformed tail section. The jet engines can be brought inward or outward, depending on your preference.

Replace the decorations on both sides of the Fire Dag-On's head with the Power Dag-On's chest decorations.

The removed Fire Dag-On head ornament can be stored in the back part of Power Dag-On.

The back part of the Power Dag-On is combined with the Fire Dag-On's chest!

This completes the Super Fire Dag-On!

You can view this super-precious figure, which was only shown three times in the movie, at your fingertips at any time!

When I completed it, I couldn't help but ooh and aah as I looked at it from corner to corner.

Since two giant robots made of alloy are combined, the weight is quite heavy, but the power is also considerable.

The sole of Super Fire Dug-On's foot, the part that touches the ground, also has a part that touches Power Dug-On's thigh. Because of its weight, if you accidentally slip your foot when standing it directly on a hard surface, the paint film there may be scraped off, so be careful.

The body of the Power Dug-On is combined with the body of the Super Fire Dug-On on the back, but it does not look strange because it does not make such a strong statement given the size of the Super Fire Dug-On as a whole.

This cohesiveness is also seen from right beside. Of course the design as a toy is excellent, but the original design must have been highly finished.

When displaying the toy in a floating position, it is safe to fix it firmly with two supports as shown in the instruction manual.

The thickness of this breast plate. It is so thick that even if you just look at it with a little agitation, it hides the face.

The "Super Mega Light Wave" pose can be reproduced using the movable fingers.

Of course, you can also hold the Lio Sword. The Super Fire Dag-On is so huge that the perforated sword body seems to be the standard size.

Since the Fire Dag-On is basically a Fire Dag-On, it can also be equipped with the Infinity Cannon.

And special moves by Super Fire Dag-On, Ryan, and Gunkid: ......

Fire "A hot soul in a steel body, an indomitable fighting spirit is the mark of a brave man."

GUNKID "Combine the power of three into one and shine!"

Ryan "Miraculous dag-on power!"

Three "Triangle Christmas Beam!"

Finally, a comparison with the original product. The original product is now completely burnt out. The original product is made of all plastic, and the transformation and combination is simple and easy to play with.

The METAMOR-FORCE "Dug-On" series this time is a condensed version of that charm, and it has a density that seems to have an attraction to those of us who have grown up. The last time I wrote about Fire Dug-On, a friend of mine saw the article and even took the trouble to contact me for the first time in 20 years. (And that friend is a fan of the sea.)

At first, I have finished writing about Fire Dag-On, the main character of "Dag-On".

What kind of heroes will be sculpted next? We can't wait to find out!
